xxxxxOn a nice afternoon with nothing to do, there was only one place that anyone would have to look in order to find Idris Wyn, and that was the library. She loved the library. It was her favorite place in the entire castle and had always been. There were so many books, many of them the young women had read plenty of times before, but that did not matter. Books were written down so they could be enjoyed over and over again. Otherwise, they would just be passed down, verbally, gone with the blink of an eye.
xxxxxIdris would have been completely happy to spend the entire day in the library, but sadly, that was not possible. Not today. Today, her sister was having a dinner party, and she had to be there. The positives and negatives of having the Minister for Magic as a sister. Sometimes, she regretted being the only one who was known simply for who she was related to. Her brothers were Quidditch players, and her sister was the Minister. She was just some ministry worker. She was hardly anyone important. Not by her own credit. That did not matter though. She had to go to the dinner. Otherwise, she was not eating tonight.
xxxxxShe shut the book she was reading and placed it back on the shelf before heading over to her bedroom to get changed. If only she could go to the party in her pajamas, however, she figured that her sister would not approve, let alone the head of her department. Idris did not quite understand what was so important about wearing nice clothes to certain events. Clothes were clothes. They did not matter too much. The young woman had not payed much attention to them since her mother died. The only time she really did was when Gwyn wanted her opinion. Speaking of which, she was surprised that Gwyn had not gone looking for her for that very reason.
xxxxxFinally deciding upon something, she walked down the stairs to find her sister waiting in the drawing room. "A oes unrhyw un yma eto?" she asked as she took a seat next to Gwyn. They were home, in Wales. There was no need to speak English between them.
Translations: Is anyone here yet?

𝕿heodore 𝕹ott the 𝕾econd, 10𝔱𝔥 𝕯uke of 𝖂ales
ℭ𝔥𝔦𝔢𝔣 𝔚𝔞𝔯𝔩𝔬𝔠𝔨 𝔬𝔣 𝔱𝔥𝔢 𝔚𝔦𝔷𝔢𝔫𝔤𝔞𝔪𝔬𝔱
Theodore waited, regal, and very much alone. His son, the only one worth any mention, would be arriving at a later hour. The Second Floor of the Ministry was always a busy one. He stood statuesque, and utterly formal. Although Castle Aur was in Wales, not very far from his own familial castle, he still rode on horseback; his family sigil had donned the blanket beneath his saddle. The old mare was tame, and he offered her a sugar cube as he slid down gallantly and gave her free reign of the grounds near the freshwater pond. The mare knew this place well, it wasn’t the first time they’d gathered here before. Heavy footsteps in dragonscale boots nestled into the stone steps that anointed him to the grand double doors of this fortress, their home. Fingers curled into a fist and he knocked to signal his entrance and arrival.
Soon, Gwynfair would greet him, perhaps with her brothers, or perhaps on her own. There was never any way to tell. Theodore, in the darkest side of him, had wondered what had brought about this dinner party. Was there an announcement to be made? Had there been developments in the aurors and hit wizards cases? Perhaps, but he somehow doubted it. Tight lipped with wiry wisps of hair on his chin, he waited for the greeting that was sure to come.

•Welshwoman•Hufflepuff Alumna•
xxxxxA voice sounded and Gwyn looked up to find her sister standing there. As happy as she was to see her, the woman was more preoccupied with where her guests were. It would be embarrassing for nobody to show up. She would feel shamed, as if the people that she depended on to help her keep the British wizarding population under control had decided that she was no longer fit to be the Minister. Gwyn did not think she did too bad. Yes, she was young, but she figured that had little to do with anything.
xxxxx"Neb eto," the older Wyn sister replied as she looked out the window. If it came to it, Gwyn would just have a quiet dinner with her family. They had not had one of those in a while. The boys with their Quidditch matches and the girls with Ministry business. Just as the Minister was thinking this, she heard a knock at the door. Finally, someone had arrived.
xxxxxOpening the door and peering outside, Gwyn found Theodore Nott, alone, standing on her doorstep. Of course he would be the first to arrive. He was the Duke of Wales and lived close to Castle Aur. He had been here before. An outsider could tell this simply from the fact that his horse was standing freely by the pond. "Croeso," she said, smiling as she invited the man inside. She was in her own home and liked speaking Welsh when she was there. "Os gwelwch yn dda, yn dod i mewn."

xxxxxIdris watched as her sister walked to the door and listened carefully. She could not quite hear who was at the door, but she could only assume that it was likely the Duke. The young woman was not aware of anyone else that was coming who would understand the Welsh her sister spoke to the guest. As they walked down the hallway, Idris found her suspicions correct. Of course he would be the first to arrive. The Notts did not live too far from the Wyns. It would make sense.
xxxxxThere was another knock at the door and Idris started to wonder where her brothers were. They were invited to this dinner, yet they were nowhere to be found. She at least had a theory with Darryn. There was that healer he had met at Circus Maisc. The widow with a son. Darryn had fallen in love with both of them. Honestly, Idris was glad. Aravis did seem to be pretty nice. She remembered hearing about what happened to her late husband. It was really quite the tragedy. The whole deal with the Radcliffe family was. As far as Cadoc, Idris could only guess.
xxxxxDeciding that her sister was far too busy to answer the door, Idris got up to see who else had shown up. She opened the door to find a green haired man and his wife. The young woman could only assume that this was the head of Magical Games and Sports. She had never met the man, which was surprising with her sister being the Minister, but she had heard fellow co-workers mentioning that he was a metamorphmagus. Of course, Idris could only assume that was the reason his hair was green. "Welcome," the young woman said cheerfully. "Come right in."

"I don't know who I am.
I don't know where I'm going."
xxxxxBright blue eyes opened to the setting sun spreading colors all across the sky. The owner, a young woman, laid on her back, simply staring up. That was all she could do. That was what she was supposed to do, wasn't it? She had no memory of how she had gotten wherever it was that she had ended up. She only had the memory of what she was supposed to do. That was all that she needed, wasn't it?
xxxxxSitting up, the woman scratched her head. Loose pieces of grass fell out. How long had she been laying there? It didn't matter now. What mattered was doing what she was supposed to. That was the only thing that mattered. Off in the distance, she could see a castle. They would probably be able to help her do what she needed to do. She had to tell the people she saw. That was what they said. Tell them about what she saw.
xxxxxPushing herself toward her feet, the woman stumbled forward. On to the castle, the great stone island in front of her. That was where she was. A stone island. How interesting. But no, not a stone island, there was soft grass beneath her bare feet. She was at a castle. A real, live castle, and there seemed to be people in it! Or, at least a horse.
xxxxxThe woman was a few yards from the door when she stopped to stare at the castle. It really was a pretty thing. Grey. Grey was a good color. And light! There was light pouring from an opening in the castle. Perhaps that was a door. Or maybe a window? Confused, the woman collapsed down into the grass once more. The important thing she had to do was really turning out to be quite confusing. |

The Han family arrived at Castle Aur. Eun dreading the day of boredom. Kyung sighing at the most likely dull party. Jeong smiled at her three sons. "Come now boys. Enjoy your day. I am sure the Minister and her family made for a lot to do." Iseul moved away from the family. to speak with the aurors stationed around. "Now, You are to patrol the grounds. I shall be inside. If anything odd happens, come get me right away." he said before moving back to his family. He had no idea of the approaching figure as he and his family moved through the doors into the castle. Eun sighed. "This is gonna suck." said the boy as he wondered around. Kyung smiled at Eun. "It won't be so bad. Maybe you'll find a guy." he said to the boy as they were off to the edge. Luckily the parents didn't hear. And Eun shrugged. "What's it matter. Not like I'll ever have a guy." he grumbled as he looked around. (( If you were quoted and have an Auror, please post them patrolling the grounds. Thanks! )) |
