A welcome visitor
Merope's father and brother are both out and someone has just knocked on the door.
Merope cautiously opened it to reveal the most beautiful woman that she had ever seen standing before her.
Merope asked, "Who are you?"
The woman smiled. "I'm glad thar you asked. I'm Isolt Sayre, the Headmistress of Ilvermorny."
Merope insisted, "Come in before my father and brother come back."
Isolt stepped into her house and Merope closed the door behind her.
Isolt glanced around the small house and said, "It's worse than I expected."
Merope inquired, "What's worse than you expected?"
Isolt turned to her and stated, "Your living situation, Miss Gaunt."
Merope gasped. "How do you know my name?"
Isolt grinned. "Where are my manners? I'm here to deliver your acceptance letter."
Merope asked, "What acceptance letter?"
Isolt muttered, "They haven't shown you it? Merlin, I knew that I should have come sooner."
Merope demanded to know, "What are you talking about?!"
Isolt explained, "You have been accepted into my school, Miss Gaunt. Your family have been hiding the acceptance letters that we have sent you."
Merope inquired, "What sort of school is it?"
Isolt told her, "A school for witches and wizards."
Merope assured her, "I'm not a witch."
Isolt beamed, "You definitely are." She added with a frown. "Youur abusive family have been repressing your abilities."
Merope frowned. "Damn them. I didn't even know that I was a witch because of them."
Isolt reassured her, "I'm here now. I promise that I will look after you."
