"I've heard that Hogsmeade is the only all-wizarding town in Britain," said Cyrus. "Is that true?"
 
Kadyn shrugged. "I think so... at least I don't know any others. But it's not really as impressive as it seems. Growing up there was probably about as normal as life for any of you was, with a couple of twists here and there. You see, my parents are both muggle born wizards, and mainly like to do things the hard way. Occasionally they'll use magic, but life was simple, for a while.


"For a while?" Amber asked, "What happened?"
