| | |  Gringotts Main Hall and Service Counters
The main hall of Gringotts is a bustling place, impressive in its scope, scale and grandeur. The walls and the floors are made of gleaming marble and there are exquisite chandeliers lighting the hall. Long counters of dark and rich wood line each side of the hall. Goblins sit behind each desk, though there are a few witches and wizards wandering around. Beyond the long counters there are doors, leading from the hall to who knows where. Occasionally the doors appear to flicker if you stare at them for too long.
The door which leads to the vaults and indeed to every other room in Gringotts, changes according to a secret schedule. This is the second of the safety precautions protecting the vaults beneath the ground. The first precaution is of course, the security Goblins and Wizards who are stationed at each door and roam the main hall and the entrance foyer.
Step up to the appropriate counter if you dare. Be sure to have your wand and key at the ready if you plan to access your vault today. OOC: It would be helpful to us if you title your post with the service you require (new vault, deposit, withdrawal, potions market, currency exchange etc). We encourage you to post your character making their way through the entrance hall before posting here, but it is optional. | |

She wasn't an impatient person in general, but David was alone back at the Leaky and being in the bank made her feel uneasy. The sooner she could put the financial business behind her, the better.
Tex nodded. "Yes. I'll just need your paperwork and wand." she said holding out her long fingered hand expectantly.

She examined the wand first. "11 inches long" she observed. "Holly with a phoenix feather core." She set the wand back on the counter and motioned that the woman was allowed to take it back. She then looked through the paperwork, nodding.
"Yes, yes, very well." she said stamping it. She then looked around her area for a vault key. "Would you like to visit your vault today?"

"Yes, yes, very well." she said stamping it. She then looked around her area for a vault key. "Would you like to visit your vault today?" Lucy wasn't sure why she felt nervous as the worker inspected her wand. The whole ordeal felt strange without her husband by her side. He was always the one that took care of the finances. It had been many years since his death, but not long enough for the feeling of loss to hit forcefully enough to knock her off her feet.
She glanced around, looking for a quick place to sit, while the wave of emotion passed through her. Thankfully it was short lived and by the time he had finished inspecting her wand, it had all but passed. "Thank you." She reached up and took her wand. It was comforting to have it back. After holstering her wand, she put on a smile and answered, "Yes, please. I would like to visit my vault today. I have a few items I would like to place inside. It will take a bit of worry off my mind to know they are safe." She patted her robe pocket.

If you would please follow me, I will lead you down to the vault."
And with that, Tex hopped off her stool and led the way to the entrance to the vaults. ooc: You may go ahead and post in your vault. Feel free to also play the arrival to your vault / opening of your vault in that thread.  Your escort goblin will remain respectfully outside your vault unless you ask for assistance.

Natasha nervously walked up to the queue for the counters. While waiting for her turn, she looked over her paperwork again, just to make sure everything was in order. | |

It was nearing the end of summer, which meant it was nearing the less busy time of the year. Tex waved her hand for the next person to approach.
"How can I help you today?"

"How can I help you today?" "I'd like to open a new vault please. I don't need anything big, I just have some old family heirlooms that I'd rather not store in my school trunk." She said, presenting her application form. | |

"And would you want to see your vault today or would you rather have us drop off things off for you?"

Natasha handed her wand over. "If you could deliver my items to my vault, that would be great. I still have a lot of shopping for school items to take care of." She said politely. | |
