<div>Amber looked around the shop, her mouth gaped. <em>There are so many wands here</em>, Amber thought. After a second, she realised the strange old man was talking to her, she klicked her heals together and said is if in the army, "I'm Amber McFuller, and this is my

<div>Kadyn covered his eyes and shook his head. He mumbled under his breath. "Why not just where a sign saying 'clueless' around your neck? I'm surprised she realized those were wand boxes..." Kadyn chuckled a little. "A wand is one of the most important tools for most wizards, Amber. There are other ways to use magic, but the wand is favored by most wizards."
