Chapter 3: Chapter 3: Receiving the letter
...
In the night the moon was up in the sky and the whole world quiet.
I was in deep sleep, when I was suddenly interrupted by what seemed to be like knocks on my window. In a matter of seconds I was up and ready.
A few years ago uncle Severus had told me that in the future I would get a letter to hogwarts like him and my decased parents. Uncle had told me that I should not be nervous since I had already casted simple spells wandless, proving my magic talent.
It wasn't of much help since before going to sleep every night I would think about receiving my hogwarts letter. A childish thought of mine was to keep the windows always open so it would be easier for the owl to give me my letter.
I wouldn't be surprised if the old bat would hide the letter from me till the last day, since even with a pure heart he still was a slytherin through and through.
...
I looked outside the window with no owls or letters in sight. Sadly I slumped back to my bed.
Maybe it had been a gust of wind or was uncle playing a trick on me. Still as a last act of desperation and hope I opened the window and looked around. Still there was nothing.
With sadness I closed the window and walked towards my bed.
Suddenly I noticed a strange item on my desk that wasn't there before and a few owl feathers all around. I quickly rushed towards the desk and grabbed the envelope.
I quickly noticed a wax seal, a shield ornament, and a lion, an eagle, a badger and a snake surrounded by a capital H.
With a smile I was sure that it was the invitation letter from Hogwarts since the old bat would never go through so much trouble for a silly prank. The animals representing hogwarts and The capital H confirming the validity.
Grinnfindors lion, Ravenclaws Eagle, Hufflepuffs badger and Slytherins snake.
On the letter it read
Mr Septimus Prince
In the middle of nowhere
I took a deep breath and opened the letter.
