"Loads of things! Oh I know! I am going to make you one once we get to Hogwarts. The best way to learn about these things is hands on, don't you think? Oh this is going to be so exciting! Your very own quest!" To find...something yet to be determined. She was going to ask some (but who and how did she pick?!) friends to help her too. It would be the BEST and the perfect way for her little cousin to learn about the castle and all its wonders and mysteries.

"Oooooooh," Anna squealed as she plucked the list from Eulalia's hands. "This is a treasure map! It doesn't show a specific location buuuuuuuut it does have a list of treasures to find. It's kind of like working backwards which means we have to use our noggins," she explained while performing a bit of an elaborate finger flourish to her temple. "So..." she continued as she gave the piece of parchment a bit of a ruffle to uncrease it just a bit. "...hoist the sales, first mate! We are now on a quest to fiiiiiiiind..." she read while her finger brushed over the words on the parchment with her eyes closed to select their first destination."... the Quills of Destiny!" Anna licked the tips of her, slightly dirty, fingers and held them up in the air. "There is a cool breeze blowing from the west! Zephyrus is on our side and offers us his blessings!"

Excuse you, Anna! Eulalia's hands grasped at the air, parchment snatched away. "It's not a map," she insisted, but she did shuffle closer to her cousin to see what she was pointing at. Quills?

Lally sighed and stroked her li'l lizard friend one last time before tucking it away into her pocket. She frowned, looking up and down the street for a shop that might have quills. She didn't know what Anna was talking about with cool breezes or Zebras, but quill shopping would be more fun with her cousin. "That way?" she pointed. Anna should know the right place to go, having presumably done school shopping before.
