"I've never seen anything like it" she blinked a couple of times before deciding to edge a few steps further back.
Oh. Well there was the proof that no one knew her and she didn't know anyone else either. "Yes. Third year but I'm new to magic" she smiled weakly and apprehensively. Would people find it weird she wasn't a first year? But she was sure there were a lot of older students that were completely new to magic, she couldn't be the only late developer. "I'm Gwen" she told her moving her eyes back to the girl to speak.
Cassie nodded and looked at the tree again.
"yeah it's done a lot of damage over the years and have snuffed out quite a few birds too." Poor birds. It was a good thing that the owls were smart enough to avoid the tree otherwise students would have to replace their pets quite often. Despite all that the tree was pretty amazing in it's own right."
Well I doubt there's anything quite like it anywhere else."
Cassie was only a little taken aback by her third year late to magic tale. It wasn't completely unheard of, at least not to her. Freddie started in his seventh year and Thomas was a third year now? So yeah she knew a few late bloomers."Oh you are? I know another person around your age who is new to magic too." She smiled at the girl and offered her hand.
"I'm Cassie."
