There’s a witch in the lake, in water up to her waist. And she appears to be staring intently into the bottom of an economy-sized bean tin that is resting on the surface of the water.
Luna has carefully planned this particular expedition, and is properly outfitted in bathing suit, swim cap, and Alabaster’s Best Burn Block ointment, which is smeared liberally on her nose. The bean tin has had the top and bottom carefully removed, and the bottom enchanted with a fixed bubble charm, turning it into a fairly handy tool for underwater viewing.
All the better to see what is on the bottom of the lake, at least in the shallows.
Her journal is in her school bag on a rock on the shore, waiting to record an account of whatever she might see.
Botherable. Though you may have to make a bit of a splash to get her attention.
