Isis

After disposing of the Elf’s body, Barty moved through the house he had grown up in. He took what he could use. He filled a bag with books and found the old wands used by his relatives over the years and some vials with potions inside. After checking the whole house, he got into the shower, scrubbed himself clean, changed his clothes and left the house. He crossed the border of wards his father had set up, after which he was able to Apparate and disappeared.

Reggie was nervous. In a few moments, she would meet Isis, one of the ravens of the Tower of England. She had spoken to her briefly in the past, but now Isis would follow her, protect her, guard her, and correct her where necessary. That was the condition Dream had set. She was allowed to go to Hogwarts as a raven during the day, but only under the guidance of an experienced raven, who could act as an intermediary. Isis was an elderly raven who had served Dream well in the past. Matthew was busy with other things and wouldn't be able to accompany her every day, where Isis could easily be missed, provided she visited the Tower once in a while. Everything was arranged and Reggie was hopping around nervously.

Dream, sitting on a bench in front of the Tower, surveyed the people around him and pretended not to notice how nervous the young raven was next to him. He'd see and train Reggie at night, of course, but since she wouldn't be with him in the Dreamlands during the day, he'd decided she wouldn't go to Hogwarts until Monday so he could spend another weekend with her.

In recent months, Dream had grown fond of the young witch. He had experienced feelings that were foreign to him. He had always been protective of the people he cared about, but it was different with Reggie. The punishments he had imposed on Dumbledore and her family were harsh. You could even say he had been cruel. Dream couldn't stand children being hurt, and after getting to know Reggie those feelings had grown stronger. Lucienne had told him this was normal, his sister had only smiled at him, and he strongly refused to seek advice from any of his other relatives. So he did what he always did, he made new dreams and nightmares, he kept balance and tried to ignore the paternal feelings that crept up within him when she was near.

A black shadow landed next to him on the couch and Isis bowed slightly to him. ‘My Lord Dream, what a pleasure to see you again so soon. Hello sweetheart!’ Isis greeted Reggie enthusiastically and Reggie immediately became less nervous. She'd been afraid Isis would hate having to babysit her, but the older raven radiated a warmth that calmed Reggie down instantly. Dream and Isis discussed what should be done and after a while Isis left, promising to come to Hogwarts the following Monday.

‘I will let you choose. Do you want to stay and maybe go somewhere you haven’t been, or will we return?’ It was Saturday afternoon and Reggie didn't really want to go back to the Dreamland just yet. She hopped onto Dream's shoulder and looked around. Ravens are curious animals by nature and the longer Reggie was a raven, the more that aspect of their instincts came to the fore.

‘Can we visit StoneHenge?’
