Open post! Swedishfish Girl! Madame Librarian! Jess's Soul Sister! Sweetest Swede! Clad in her new school robes that she had only minutes ago changed into Ellie walked off the train into the rain. What struck her as especially cruel was that the rain picked up more and more as she walked towards the waiting carriages. When she made it to one of the carriages her hair was wet and she had mud on the hem of her robes. She however forgot all that at the sight of the black horse that was going to pull the carriage with it’s skeletal body, leathery wings and creepy reptilian face.
Ellie stood and stared at the thestral’s with her mouth gaping open and her eyes wide as saucers for several minutes until she started to shake from the cold. It was her wet hair and robes that brought her back to reality. Blinking she stumbled forwards and climbed up into the carriage and sat down on one of the seats near the window. Hugging her arms around herself she just wanted to get up to the castle.
