Instead of walking up to the Ravenclaw common room, Mason changed his direction and entered the libary instead. The elimination at the first task had happened almost twenty minutes ago and the seventh year needed to be in an environment where he felt safe. And the library was that place.

Still ignoring his wounded elbow as he had left the area very quickly and he didn't want the Healer to heal him at the moment, he entered the library and immediatly he made his way over to the fireplace, pointed his wand at the chair and non-verbally moved it closer to the fire though not close enough for the alarm to go off. He had witnessed that once in his fifth year so he knew it was there. As he sat down on the chair, he kicked off his shoes and for the first time in a long time, he did not grab a book to read but stared at the fire feeling dissapointment in himself.
