Gringotts Wizarding BankThis goblin-run bank is one of the best in the world. Rest assured that your money and valuables will be safe here. [Only characters with explicit permission from the Gringotts Goblins should RP here...or else face severe IC consequences.]
If you go up the white marble stairs and through the burnished bronze double doors you will find yourself in Gringotts Wizarding Bank. A Goblin doorman wearing scarlet and gold stands in the doorway and on occasion, a Wizard or two with a probity probe might be found here, checking for troublemakers.
There are large and decorative vases in each corner of this small foyer, each containing a flitterbloom plant that appears to wave at you as you pass by. Silver doors lead into the main hall, which is where you take care of your financial business, and there are words engraved on them:
Quote:
Enter, stranger, but take heed
Of what awaits the sin of greed,
For those who take, but do not earn,
Must pay most dearly in their turn.
So if you seek beneath our floors
A treasure that was never yours,
Thief, you have been warned, beware
Of finding more than treasure there.
The Entrance Foyer is a busy spot, with many witches, wizards and goblins bustling through it. Feel free to linger for a while and examine the portraits on the walls of famous Curse-Breakers and Goblins, though if the Gringotts security think you are blocking the doors, they'll certainly tell you to move along and you better do what they tell you.
OOC: Please post in the main hall and service counters thread if you wish to be helped by a Goblin. This is just the entrance way and you won't be able to open or access your account from here. You may RP for fun here with your friends if you wish!
Luther took a deep breath and slowly exhaled as he passed through the silvery doors vaguely noticing the verse warning those who dare to try to steal from the goblins.
He was nervous. This was the official return of the Starriver family to the United Kingdom. After a little more than a century, his family was back.
He looked at Caes and Aria to gather his courage and send them an unsure smile. Trying not to think what could go wrong he chuckled nervously.

Caes was feeling good during the summer. Pleasant days, and the old fun. It was nice having a friend in the house as he was spending his last summer days at home before moving to a new space with roomie and older friend Darius. He wasn't Aria but he could likely speak for her also having fun with Luther. Now as the days for Hogwarts was counting down, the shopping had to take place. And Luther would be needing some money.
"You good?" Caes asked in a mix of a statement and question. He would be good. He had some good support here. Meanwhile his Papa Val was outside Gringotts awaiting them. "We'll be with you all the way," Caes turned to Aria to see her reaction to this.
~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.
Such an exciting summer this was turning out to be!
But today was not about her. No, it was all about dear Luther. Had Aria ever mentioned how much she had grown fond of the boy? Maybe only to Caes, but it was true that she felt a strong sense of protectiveness for him.
A hand toyed with the seashell necklace around her neck, which she had of course made herself. “Of course we will be!’’ an enthusiastic Aria commented, bobbing her head to cement the validity of her and her brother's words. “It’s all going to be all right. You’ll see.” It also helped that her dads were supportive.

Luther smiled at them with a bit less worry. The summer so far had been... different1 yet wonderful nonetheless. It truly astounded him (and Leo if he was to be believed) how generous and sincere they were. He was unfamiliar2 with such care from people other than Leo, safe to say.
"Yeah." he sighed and continued "Yeah, I will be. Thank you. For being you know..." It was strange3 for him to feel let alone need others' encouragement. He always did what he felt was necessary and rarely hesitated. The change was surprisingly4 both concerning and relieving.
"Let's go and see what old Starrivers hoarded here then." he beamed at them and then with a renewed determination, he strode to the Main Hall of the Bank.
