Hello.

*halts her practicing, and turns with her wand gripped in her hand* Hello, are you one of the Professors? I'm afraid I haven't met everyone quite yet.

No I'm not a professor.

Then who are you precisely? I was not aware that we were recieving any visitors today, and everyone here, besides myself, who is not a professor is a child.

I am just a traveler. My name is Edmund.

*raised eyebrow* And I assume, traveler Edmund, that you are a wizard? No other is capable of entering these grounds, or even seeing them.

I am a wizard.

What are you doing here at Hogwarts then? It is not common for witches and wizards to just take a stroll around the grounds.

I have met interesting people here as of late and enjoyable company is never minded. This will be my last trip before I must find a bride.

Met interesting people here at the school? You must be talking about my husband or the other three founders, as there is not a more interesting group of witches and wizards for miles *smiles* I am the Lady Carina Slytherin by the way, it is nice to meet you.

Must find a bride? *looks contemplative* I am newly married myself actually, may I ask why you must find a wife so suddenly?

*He smiled* I believe so.

My family has decided it is time for me to produce an heir. As the firstborn son in a Pureblood family it is necessary.

*nods in agreement* It is always wonderful to meet another who has the same standards in regards to blood-purity, not everyone is as concerned.

*look of comprehension on her face* I am in a similar situation as well, I understand completely.

There is always cause for concern.

*nods*

Oh indeed. There are far too many halfbloods and worse running around this place for my liking.

I do not blame them. I blame their families.

I suppose their families ARE the ones who chose to sully their blood in such a way, but that does not mean they should be allowed to mix with the children of proper wizards.

At least they are learning to control their magic.

If you can even call it that *scoffs* They spend their entire first year stumbling over things wizarding children have learned since childhood. It holds proper wizards back.

If they must live in our world they must learn how to navigate it.
