The clock struck seven, water boiled in the pot on the stove. A charm lifted the rice into the bowl, pouring the contents of the bag slowly into the scalding liquid. Grape juice sat out on the counter; a glass on its left. A fire gently crackled in the inglenook on the far side of the room. Saffron lighting bathed the room in a golden tinge. A small coffee table sat on an elevated platform next to the back door. This was home.
Erik slid through the front door. Monday night study sessions were always tiring. His homework was mostly finished and he had all the practice spells for the next month mastered. All that was left was to contemplate a very important event, one that would change his life forever. And this important event was tomorrow.
Levitation charms were never difficult. Erik’s coat easily floated into the adjacent closet. It was simply another part of the complex system of charms that ran Erik’s dorm life. Everything from washing dishes to folding clothes, Erik had a charm for it. Some needed to be manually cast each time. Others sat dormant until activated when circumstances were met. From the time he got up to the time Erik is in bed the laundry in done, the plates are put away and his schools uniform is ironed and hung for tomorrow. This intricate pattern is one Erik had developed soon after freshmen year in order to avoid stress and make life easier.
Just into sophomore year Erik had earned merit with many of the teachers. Magic had never been difficult for him but it was still a chanllenge.
The end.
