Ava had been spending the morning in the library organizing the homework and reading assignments she had been given by her teachers. Only the start of the year and already so much to do! But there was certainly some very interesting subjects to read about, she was particularly interested in her Defense Against the Dark Arts books. Figuring that lunch time was probably approaching, she decided to head down to the great hall for a bite to eat.

She must have taken a left instead of a right, because as she came down the corridor she came upon a balcony with a most astonishing view of the castle grounds. She gasped. It was really very beautiful. She decided to stay awhile, she was in no rush after all.
