Tarslemoor House

The ring. It's so much grander than I expected, even after hearing the stories, seeing it from afar. The moment of disorientation as gravity changed around us was nothing compared to the disorientation of being constantly surrounded by students and teachers coming and going as they handle their own affairs. And there are so many of us now, in our year, now that we're not all split amongst four different lodges. I'm already meeting so many new fifth year friends!
 
Chapter houses are quite different, too, and in mine there are students who've originally come from all four lodges. We have more privacy, here, with mostly two to a room. My new roommate, Megale, is such a kind person and so much fun to be around! Sir William has really taken a shine to her as well, and I really think it's going to be a great living arrangement.
 
My favourite thing about the house, though, is the tower garden. It's so quiet, considering how busy the Ring is, and it's beautiful there. Sir William tends to spend time there even when I'm not with him, and I hope no one thinks I'm using my familiar to keep an eye on them or on the garden! Though, honestly, I'm not sure how many people know that I can both see and speak through my furry companion. I've been fairly quiet about it, just in case.
 
I think he's up there now, I'm going to head off to find him!
