Finding the hospital wing was easy, explaining to Madam Pomfrey why she was there was not.
In the end, about 5 minutes after McGonagall walked in, Ember found herself in the back corner, the curtains drawn for privacy.
Her owl flew into the room and after a bit of a struggle getting through the curtains, ended up on her knee.
"Hi Scorch." she whispered, taking the letter and breaking the seal.
Ember,
I'm going to be in France for a little while. Just thought I'd let you know in case I wasn't there when you got home. I'll still be able to receive letters, (Your owl is smart, he'll know where to find me) it won't be like last time. I'd like to hear about what you're doing, how you are. Send letters home, don't ignore us.
Love, Terre
"What am I supposed to tell them?" She whispered, " 'Hey guys, I got sorted into every house, sleeping in the hospital wing because I don't really have a dorm. I missed half of the sorting and the feast because of that.' " Her shoulders sank. "I have to tell them something, right?"
Scorch hooted softly.
"Why don't you go to the owlery, get some rest, eat something. I doubt I'll write anything."
Scorch gave Ember a friendly nip, hooting softly once more, before flying off.
Ember fell backwards, asleep the second her head hit the pillow.
