Harry pulled a sandwich out of his bag and took a big bite. He couldn’t shake the feeling that he was tired. And satisfied. Training with Hermione and Ron had been, to be honest, fantastic. A completely different vibe compared to when he trained alone.

The fight went better than expected. Nobody died, which was something. They fought, they bled a little, Sarah healed what she could, and now they knew what it felt like to kill something that wanted them dead. Not bad for a bunch of civvies with sticks and starter loot. We pressed on. The vines pull back just enough to reveal a slope of cracked stone and a familiar archway coated in moss. Croc Nest. The same busted frame I stumbled intosome time ago wielding a broken baton. Mark steps forward. A…
