0.14 - Meeting the Headmaster (Part 1)
Entering the Headmaster’s office through a moving stone staircase that was concealed by a gargoyle was a short-lived experience. Seeing the office? It seemed like a section of the museum dedicated to antiques, or prominent people in their time.
Squawks could be heard next to the desk, belonging to a red-gold feathered bird that was as big as a swan.
Celestine took a step towards it, attempting to pet it on the head but pulled away the second she almost got bitten.
“What is that?” She raised her eyebrow.
“That is Fawkes.” An elderly voice boomed through the room. “He is a phoenix.”
“Professor Dumbledore.” Harry’s eyes widen.
“Is this the girl Professor Snape informed me about?” Professor Dumbledore descends the staircase before sitting on the headmaster’s chair.
“Yes, Professor.” Harry nods, turning to Celestine. “This is Celestine.”
“Hello, Professor.” Celestine murmurs, bowing her head, and walks to Harry, standing next to him.
“Come, we have much to discuss.” Dumbledore advises, gesturing to the vacant chairs across him. So Harry and Celestine took a seat in their respective chairs, beginning to be closely interrogated about each and every detail of how Harry had met, or discovered, Celestine.
