Considering how late it was, I wasn’t surprised that Earnie wasn’t there. Daphne moved before I did and opened the front doors, revealing a more dimly lit foray of the manor. Closing the doors behind me, I summoned my patronus, which the raven made a happy trill as it flew about and around Daphne before settling on my shoulder. Giving it a message for Mum, it flew off and through the door, heading towards London.
