What could Rowan say about patronuses? Nothing, really. She'd never heard of them, but from what everyone was saying, the silvery otter was one. Rowan lit up, she was so excited now. Was she going to learn how to do one of those? Then she could have an animal friend whenever she wanted!

Could you choose the animal? Or was it at random? Was it like when Professor Quigley had turned into a cat? Same sort of magic? Or something different?

Whilst she had a lot of questions about patronuses, she didn't actually know anything about them, so she kept her mouth shut.
