Harry Potter: The Last Exodus

The Farm Trunks and Preparing for the Journey

As the morning sun began to rise over Starios, Harry walked through the quiet streets, making his way to The Enchanted Trunk Emporium. The preparations for their move to Mirithis were well underway, and while the leaders were busy packing their belongings into the enchanted trunks, Harry had one last important task to complete.

He was about to place a special order—something essential for survival on Mirithis. The time had come to select the animals that would help sustain their new lives, providing food, materials, and magical resources.

When Harry stepped into the shop, the familiar jingle of the bell echoed above him. The air smelled of polished leather and magic, and rows of enchanted trunks lined the walls. Behind the counter stood the shopkeeper, a sharp-eyed witch who gave Harry a knowing smile.

"Back again, Mr. Potter?" she asked. "What are you after this time? I thought you'd already cleaned me out of regular trunks."

Harry smiled as he approached the counter. "I'm here for something specific. I need Farm Trunks."

Her eyebrows lifted in surprise. "Farm Trunks, you say? That's no small order. You planning on taking a whole farm with you?"

Harry nodded. "I need 800 of them. They'll need to hold both magical and muggle animals. We're going to need livestock in Mirithis."

The witch gave an approving nod. "Wise decision. You'll need sustainable food sources over there. I can have 800 of them ready in a day or so. Each one will be enchanted to create a safe, self-sustaining environment for the animals inside—fields, water, and everything they'll need for the journey."

"Perfect," Harry said, satisfied. "I'll take them."

With his order placed, Harry began planning which animals he would bring with him. He knew a careful balance was needed between magical creatures and regular livestock to ensure they could sustain themselves on Mirithis.

Choosing the Animals

Harry sat down with a list of animals—both magical and muggle—carefully considering what would be most beneficial for survival in the new world.

Muggle Animals (400):Cows: Dairy cows for milk, butter, and cheese.Sheep: Wool-producing sheep for textiles and meat.Chickens: For eggs and poultry.Pigs: For essential meat supplies.Goats: Hardy goats for milk and meat.Horses and Donkeys: Small numbers for transportation and farm work.Magical Animals (400):

After selecting the muggle livestock, Harry turned to magical creatures that could help them thrive in Mirithis.

Mooncalves: These gentle creatures were perfect for agricultural support, providing magical fertilizer to enrich the land and enhance the growth of magical plants.Erumpents: Powerful creatures that could plow fields or defend settlements if needed. Their strength would make them invaluable, despite the need for caution.Fire Crabs: With their magical shells, Fire Crabs would be useful for potion-making and the creation of magical artifacts.Diricawls: These creatures, capable of vanishing at will, would act as both protectors and resource gatherers. Their feathers were also highly valuable in magical potions and charms.Bowtruckles: These small, twig-like creatures would be essential for protecting the magical forests they would plant on Mirithis, especially wandwood trees. Their natural instincts to guard the trees would help preserve vital resources for wand-making.Nifflers: Mischievous but incredibly useful, Nifflers would be perfect for finding valuable resources buried deep underground—precious metals, gemstones, and other magical materials crucial for trade and crafting.Augureys: With their ability to predict weather, Augureys would help foresee changes in Mirithis's climate, allowing them to prepare for storms or other natural events.Acromantula: While dangerous, Harry decided to bring a few Acromantula for silk production. Their webs, strong and magically imbued, would be useful for creating textiles and protective materials.

Once Harry had made his final selection of animals, he returned to The Enchanted Trunk Emporium the following day to collect the 800 Farm Trunks. Each trunk had been enchanted to create a safe and comfortable environment for the animals. Fields, meadows, and forests existed inside the trunks, complete with self-filling water troughs and ample space for the creatures to roam.

Satisfied with his purchase, Harry shrank the trunks and slipped them into his pocket, ready to begin packing the animals and finishing his own preparations.

Packing Up the House

Back at 12 Grimmauld Place, Harry wandered through the quiet, familiar corridors. The house had been his home for years, filled with memories—both good and bad. It was strange to think he'd soon be leaving it all behind. But Mirithis was the future, and he was ready for the next step.

He began packing his personal belongings first, carefully placing magical artifacts, books from the Black family library, and mementos from his past into his trunks. The house, which had once been filled with dark memories, now felt like a chapter he was ready to close.

In the drawing room, Harry paused as he carefully removed the Black family tapestry from the wall. Though it represented a darker part of his past, he decided to bring it along as a reminder of where he came from, even if his future was far brighter.

Once his personal belongings were packed, Harry turned his attention to the animals. Over the next several hours, he transported both magical and muggle creatures into their respective Farm Trunks, ensuring each was settled into the carefully designed environments inside.

The cows, sheep, goats, chickens, and pigs were placed into their enchanted meadows, where the trunks provided them with grass to graze and water to drink. The magical creatures, meanwhile, found homes in more mystical environments inside the trunks.

The Mooncalves danced across moonlit fields, their soft cries filling the air as they explored their new space. Erumpents roamed through enchanted savannas, their massive forms moving peacefully through the magical landscape. The Fire Crabs basked in the warm, enchanted sands of their trunk environments, while the Diricawls vanished in and out of sight as they explored their habitats.

The Bowtruckles, always protective, began immediately guarding the young saplings and wandwood trees that were planted within the magical forests inside their trunks. Their presence would ensure that the trees thrived, untouched by any potential harm. The Nifflers, ever curious, were already digging through their habitats, sniffing out shiny treasures buried deep within the enchanted soil—ensuring they would stay busy and happy.

Harry took extra care with the Augureys, settling them in areas where the weather could be magically influenced to provide them comfort. Their keen sense for weather patterns would prove invaluable on Mirithis.

Finally, the Acromantula found their places in enchanted webs, their strong silk ready to be harvested in the future for protective textiles and magical materials.

A Final Reflection

As Harry finished packing the last of the animals and closed the trunks, he stood in the quiet of 12 Grimmauld Place for a moment longer, taking it all in. The house felt empty now, the echoes of its history lingering in the air. But soon, it would be left behind, along with the rest of the world they knew.

Harry looked around one last time before stepping out into the night, his heart filled with anticipation for the journey ahead. Everything was packed, the animals were ready, and soon, they would be on their way to Mirithis.

A new beginning awaited them, and Harry was ready to face it head-on.
