Maisie stood nervously next to a suit of armour. She had been looking forward to her Ancient Runes lesson, but she didn't like being so close to the suits.
They'd been something Maisie had been looking forward to seeing at Hogwarts, although she made sure her mother didn't know. Maisie had stories in notebooks that she'd rather her mother didn't know about. One of them was about knights. Heroes. Swords and armour. It was this that made the suits magical to Maisie. She studied the one she'd chosen. There were things about Hogwarts armour, spells, poltergeists maybe. Maisie tried touching it, to see if that helped her feel better about them. Nope. There was just something creepy about empty armour.
