#8 - Keeping Busy

Elizabeth was aware that some members of her house had Quidditch practice, while others had class. She herself had nothing to do but mull over her parents' letter and consider which boy in her year she would most like to marry. She had decided she would rank them. Of course, that was after she started off by saying she would prefer to take another path, so long as it pleased them.

The longer Elizabeth considered it, the more she realized that she was not really friends with anybody at Hogwarts. That wasn't their fault or hers, really, just that she had never felt that she had fit in as well. It was unfortunate, then, since in this situation she had no idea which of her classmates she should add to the list.

Wanting to get her mind off the topic for just a little bit, Elizabeth headed up to the spiral tower to use the bronze key that she had, and then go and do a little research in the library, perhaps on genealogy. She removed the key from her pocket and turned it in a door's lock.
