Kelly, Ray, Bianca and Charlie's home stood alone on a cliff overlooking the whole village, its walls are made of thick brown and fresh elder wood, it was a lonely but beautiful place. Whenever Kelly went inside the house, she could swear to hear the sound of the mountain as she called it the first day she arrived at Julie, for her it sounded like the breathing of some great, sleepy creature. Kelly spent much of her time inside the house during there two year expedition making excuses to escape the cold shiver of the winter.
But something has happened in this once calm village, a murder just struck one of the villagers a great man, Jean Lyon, a great wizard that Kelly knew from her training at Gringott's...
Kelly was able to remember every detail of the previous night.
The sun had already fallen underneath the great mountains, when they were heading to the village's church, a place where meetings took place, the road wasn't crouded as usual but as calm as the sea on a cool summer night. Kelly and Ray were leading the team, when a man shouted to them and called their names one by one. After that they were inside the great walls of the church, that protected them from the piercing cold of the night.
On the stage of the church main hall, a man not older than fifty was giving speech. Charles Lyon the older brother of Jean, showed rage on his face like no other, it was the first time Kelly saw that man changing his facial expression from the caring, loving and peaceful man to this ugly monster man...
"I shall refuse this... This... This crime" shouted Charles. "My brother didn't die he was killed!! And we all know it... I know it... And I can't tell you who did it...But I'm sure it has to do with the stranger... We never made war with anyone... So why attack us now unless those people had something to do with it" Charles screamed as he pointed his finger at Kelly and her friends.
"Dear Mr. Charles Kelly begun. "I was one of the few people who ever met you brother and I can assure you that I would never allow anyone of my team or myself to come close to your brother at least those are my orders... Not to socialise with anyone in this village... We are just using two of your homes for rest and as a headquarter to our exploration... Please you can't just consider us guilty" Kelly continued...
And they spend the rest of the night yelling and protesting, till Mr. Conan was able to convince the villagers that this was a crime that only death eaters and dark wizards would perform...
Kelly and her team returned home after promising the villagers to never go back to the village and just use the house up on the cliffs. Kelly was pretty much tired on this day, that all the books she was reading were still close. She punched the wall in front of her. In the end, she was in big trouble now that Mr. Jean was dead and she was the only one that knew the reason...
