The rustling at the window caused Jen to awaken from her deep dreams. She yawned, sitting up and rubbing her eyes ferociously. She padded across the old marble floor seeing a snowy owl framed in the window. She slid the window open quietly hoping not to wake her family house elf's who would come to bring her unwanted breakfast. The owl shot in, circling twice before perching daintily on the edge of her lamp. Jen untied the letter from the owls spindly leg. Glancing at it she noticed that it was a thick yellow envelope with her address on it.
