It seemed as though her mind had never been completely clear since the end of last term; first with the situation at the assembly, the Ministry meetings, and then discovering the news of the death of a fellow staff member. If anything else, that was what had shaken her the most out of everything. She still found herself on the brink of tears when she thought about it.

She walked slowly through the castle, making her way to the staff room where the first meeting of the term would take place. It was comforting to be in a familiar place, when the past few months were nothing but unfamiliar, which put her on edge,understandably.

For a moment, Angela hesitated outside of the door and then swung it open, revealing two others already inside - the Headmaster and Antonio.

She just wasn't certain how the masses would handle the news, but she, herself, had little doubt that all precautions were being taken to avoid another spectacle.

Lowering herself into a nearby chair, she moved her gaze to the flickering fire in the fireplace, watching the hypnotic dance of the flames for a few moments before glancing up at the others.
