All she wanted to do was post a package to Inverness, was that so much to ask for? A small package of her mother's favourite treats from Honeydukes sat undelivered on the counter as the staff went into a panic over escaped owls. Daesyn ducked as one flew past her face and she felt a burning sensation as a claw nicked her right cheek on its way past.

She turned to watch the pepper coloured animal and grabbed her wand out of her waistcoat as she flew at high speed towards a gentleman who had just walked in the door. She was sure she recognised him, maybe. His face was one she could have sword she had seen in Merida's department in the hospital when visiting her friend, but she had never spoken to him before.

"Does everything look alright to you?" she answered his query rhetorically with a laugh as blood trickled down a small cut on her cheek. "Arresto Momentum" the cursebreaker said and flicked her wand, slowing the owl in mid flight and giving the newcomer a chance to react to the feathered missile. Behind her all manner of chaos was ensuing and Daesyn wondered what was happening with the owls. And whether her mother would in fact be getting her chocolate frogs.
