The girl stopped for a moment, leaned her elbows against the railing and looked down. A few small creatures were moving around in the valley below, probably scrounging for food or materials for their homes. And a few birds perching in the trees towards the 'grounds' side of the mountain slope were sounding off their alarms. Probably because they saw Rayna peering over at them with keen eyes.
"I'm not going to bother you." Rayna said to the birds, "I swear." She turned her attention back to the valley below, and took another breath. True, she was only eleven, but actually being at school had her thinking....'What job would I be best at?' The girl hadn't so much as thought of that before coming to Hogwarts. It just wasn't her thing to think about that kind of stuff while she'd been at home with her parents. And if there was a time to really start preparing for her future career, it would be now. At school. As soon as possible.

Just as Rayna's nose began to wrinkle from being lost in thought, her owl Silvano, a mature tawny, landed next to her on the railing. "I don't suppose you have anything from home, right?" She asked, looking to both the owls legs which didn't have any mail tied to them. "That's alright." Rayna stroked the owls feathers. 'Mum and dad mentioned every few days. Not every other.' She thought to herself. "Good to see you're settling in here well, though."
Rayna smiled lightly and reached into her bag, pulled out an old biscuit and broke it into several pieces. A good portion of which she fed to Silvano.

Daniel had never seen such a huge place before and it was scaring him, the problem was that he didn't know many people and boy was that a massive problem here.

He decided that the best thing to do would be to explore the place. So taking out a piece of paper he decided to have some fun. "Day 1, the group have finally arrived at this massive looking palace, the place is nice and huge, though it can take months to get your dinner if you get lost in the many rooms."

"Day 101, I unfortunately got lost in one of the many rooms and it took me 100 days to find my way out, luckily I had enough food to ration, though my supplies are dwindling and I'm sure I'll have to leave sooner than I had hoped, with many places left unexplored.

"Day 110. So the last 9 days I have been exploring places but still the one room I want to find I can't..." Daniel was about to continue when suddenly he noticed he was standing at a wooden bridge.

"I have no idea how I have missed this bridge before but I..." He stopped when he noticed a girl his age standing there and his eyes lit up. "Rayna, come and join my exploration party." Daniel ran over to her.
