LXV. THE WAR'S PROLOGUE

━━━━━━

"When the violence causes silence

We must be mistaken"


          "GINNY, I DON'T SUPPOSED YOU can answer my question?" Spending her days in the library with Ginny, helping her out with studying for her O.W.L.s was a natural thing to do, considering Ginny had helped her out so much before. But usually, the library was nothing but peaceful — so little people actually like the library. But for some reason, recently, Marjorie couldn't help but notice that there had been a lot of patrons.

However, maybe she was going crazy, but most of these 'patrons' had spent their entirety of their time merely staring at her.
