Before she could get there, however, she noticed a small girl nearby and then heard a thud as books tumbled from her arms. Concerned, Kourt hurried in the girl's direction. "Hey, are you..." Her question trailed off as she caught sight of what had apparently caught the girl's attention.
"Merlin." She whispered. That was the same snowman that the Minister had thrown his cane out. She knew that things were different in the magic world, but never...never before had she heard or seen a moving snowman. "What in Merlin's beard is going on?!"
Jez glanced at the girl, still dazed. "I don't know. It was just here when I came in ... moving around." Jez bit her lip. "What's with the cane?" she asked, confused.
