School had started again and Orinda was thrilled. She was back at Hogwarts and in her rightful home, the Ravenclaw Tower. Ever since the fog had lifted, all Orinda could think about was going back to Hogwarts. Now she was with her friends, and more importantly, her sister. Flouncing onto a chair in the common room, Orinda looked with a satisfied smile at the few people around her. She knew at some point Acacia would be around and she was completely content to sit there and wait.

A book was sitting beside her, and since she had time to spare she picked it up. It was a textbook for charms and she had enough time to sit there and practice what she had learned her first year. Pulling her wand out, Orinda flicked it in front of her and whispered "Lumos." The tip of her holly wand lit up and she giggled to herself. Sure, it was a simple spell and she'd grown up around magic and the supernatural her entire life, but the fact that she could do it herself still amazed her.

"Wingardium leviosa!"

The book in her lap levitated upwards and then she grabbed it with a squeal. Looking around, Orinda spotted her sister entering the common room and waved enthusiastically. "Acacia! Over here!"
