Zacharias told me that some of the older pages of his book seemed to be fading. I'd heard that from other people and didn't think much of it, but then I looked at my own book and it's true, the ink really does seem to be warped and blurry, as if I might have accidentally dropped it in the bathtub -- which I didn't! It seems strange that the ink would fade, but then it was equally strange the way these books just sort of showed up that one Christmas without any real explanation. I think that's been the hardest part about learning to live in the wizarding world. The part where you have to learn to accept that sometimes the only explanation is "it's just magic".
Now that Mandy's been released from the hospital wing, there's not much reason for me to linger here at the castle. People are meandering out, more or less. I've plans to return to my parents in Camden so that I can start up on a project that I've not put much thought towards until very recently. I think Zacharias wants to come along for awhile if his parents are okay with it. We can smash about London and discover whether or not I really do come from a wild tribe of banshees or a royal line of squibs.
Or, hopefully and more likely, from very ordinary and everyday circumstances.
