~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes. Ary intended to keep at it, Professor. Even though it took him about half a dozen attempts to transfigure his second second. Whew! This was hard work. He seriously hoped that the subject would get easier for him at some point. He hadn’t made any progress at all with his third stone when Carton asked them to pause, which Ary did by setting down his wand.
What a thrilling activity! But what to make? The boy pondered on the question. In the end, he decided to go with a mooncalf {possibly a representation of his own mooncalf, Artax} hanging out at the Atreyu-Rehman Reserve under the setting sun. So, after collecting the materials, he got to work on the picture frame.
Deciding it would be much better and quicker if glue was used, the Slytherin got to work by sticking the small square tiles to the frame. He couldn’t help but be pleased with himself as he was making good progress and in no time, the frame was properly tiled. Next, the jagged red stone was smeared at the back with a liberal amount of glue and expertly fastened it to the top left of the frame.
The lime green one? Ary used that as the top half of a tree - to represent the leaves and branches. But he needed at least two more of these so that meant… it was back to transfiguring he went! |
