First thing in the morning I prepared our breakfast of fruit and hardtack. As I dressed I noticed that my flannel was missing. So I began searching for it as quietly as I could manage. Once Papa was up and dressed I sat pouting that I hadn't found my flannel. Once we finished eating Papa began to locate our shoes. "Won't you be cold like that cub?"

Hanging my head I turned to get the very girly sweater out. "Can't find my flannel sorry Papa I'll find it when we get home." As I picked up the dress that was over the sweater Papa dangled my flannel Infront of my face. "Where was it? I looked everywhere!" I called out hugging it to me like a lifesaver.

Papa chuckled at me. "Right where you left it last night. With my clothes." I covered my face with one hand in shame. But recoverd quickly cramping my arms into my sleeves. And picking up my bag I had gone ahead and readied it last night. I had made sure to empty the lot out of it last night. But remembered to put both vault keys into the pockets of my slacks.

Discreetly spelling anti theft over my pockets and bag before quickly shoving my feet into Dudley's old sneakers. "Ready Papa!" I called out rejoicing. As I bounced over to him. All at once Papa picked me up. Carrying me out the door and and aperating to nocturne ally. I noticed immediately that it didn't have the over barring sense of rampant malcontent. That it had last time. Papa aimed us towards Diagon Ally while never letting me down.

Making our way into Diagon Ally I noticed Papa had put a glamour on at some point. Once in the bank he walked straight to a teller. Asking to speak to Longreach privately. Once told to go through to the waiting room Papa sat me on his lap. He nuzzled me gently while I looked at the architecture. "How do you think this was carved Papa?" I asked awe filling my voice.

"I don't know Vel. Why do you ask?" Papa answered softly. Still putting more of his scent on me.

"It was hard work to carve our cave. Do you think I could carve like this one day?" I asked still in true awe of the masterful work.

"I think you can do anything you put your mind to cub." He told me giving a slight squeeze. "My account manager is here now be good while I'm busy." I nodded softly starring in wonder at the ceiling so far above my head. once Papa placed me in his seat, and I was sure he was gone I got up.

Heading back to the front I went to the head teller. "I need to speak with director Ragnarok quickly and quietly." Leaning towards the goblin to show discretion I whispered. "Someone has been stealing from a client and I know about it. Taking it straight from their vault." At first the goblin seemed annoyed by me. But when I finished whispering his eyes were huge. He got up and motioned me to follow. He personally lead us to the directors door.

Once in the office I looked at him directly. "You may want to get the Potter account manager here without informing him of why." The king looked ready to scream at me but I simply waited. As soon as he gave a nod to the guard I stated. "I believe a full inheritance check is in order to prove my validity." At that he sneered before making a motion at the wall.

Part of the wall slid away revealing a bowl dagger and several different potions. I stared at the wall impressed. "I have to learn how to carve something like that for the cave." After doing the full test Ragnarok looked furious. "Any chance I could get you to teach me how to carve like this?" I asked absently checking out the wall.

"Mr. Potter I sincerely apologize for the serious lack of bank security in this matter." He started but came up short once he realized what I had asked. "It's not off the table I suppose." He said clearly thinking of a way to not have me demand public sanctions.

"I have decided to change my name. And take Lordships I am due. Also I will require the bank to state that during a full check of bank records this was caught. Furthermore the bank will take back all that has been stolen with the highest interest you can manage. Of course the bank will also keep my coming here a complete secret." Ragnarok stated at me in shock as I paused for him to absorb that. Once he nodded I continued.
