HAVE YOU EVER BEEN STRUCK BY LIGHTNING? Aurora "Rory" Archer hasn't either, but she would like to just to know what it feels like. She's curious like that. When you grow up without a father and mother who won't speak a word of him, curiosity is the only option. Her whole life is basically like a game of Clue (sans the murder weapons). She simply understands nothing. She cannot explain why she likes the songs she likes or the food she eats or why she was born with mousy brown hair instead of a glossy blonde like her brother and mother. She doesn't understand why things fall and lights flicker when she's upset or how she was able to learn to play piano so quickly (just because she knows how to play doesn't make her good at it. There's a difference).
What she does grasp the concept of is that she's the least favorite child and if she dozes off in maths class one more time she has to say thirty Hail Mary's. Her life is not interesting but it's hers and she can't complain because she doesn't know anything different.
To her convenience, during her eleventh Summer, a woman in a cloak appears with an invite to magic school! So now Rory is a witch and loves every second of it. She meets two enthusiastic gingers called Fred and George while out buying her school things and they become her best friends.
Despite all this, her curiosity just grows more and more. She finds herself asking things like "How do broomsticks work?" and "Why is my Professor a ghost?". As she gets older it turns into "Why did I stop growing before I turned 13?" and "Why did The Beatles have to break up?". Then there's the real pressing ones like "Who and Where is my father?" and "Why does Fred always look at me like that?"
