Ten days later my mother brings me back to Ollivander's wand shop.
We go inside, and we are greeted by ollivander standing at the counter look at the door, expecting somebody to come inside.
At the corner of my eye I catch my mother rolling her eyes.
I greet the wand maker and ask, "Is my wand ready?"
"Yes, it is ready, and I must say it is the finest work ever made in this shop's long history" says Ollivander as he gets out a box from under his counter.
Inside the box is a stunning wand that has a black metal shine with small little dots of lights flashing in and out, the handle of the wand is greyish white, and below the handle is a golden crystal as bright as the sun.
"The wand is 12 inches in length and it is neat, quick, and flexible. Firstly, we first have the mysterious metal that fell from the sky that makes up the body of the wand, then we have the handle which is made of elder wood, representing powerful magic and great destiny, then we have the focus gem which is made of sunstone, representing life, power, and freedom, finally we have the core which is made of thestral tail hair, representing death, peace, and fear."
Ollivander hands me the wand and as soon as my hand touches the wand a swarm of small little dots of lights burst out of my wand and arrange themselves in the ceiling of the shop becoming a sort of cosmos with splendid sights.
As soon as it appeared it also disappeared just like a snap, "Wow" I say under my breath
"SpectacularIt, my boy, this is the first of it kind phenomenon to occur and it seems like this wand has chosen you my boy." says the wand maker
My mother speaks up, "How much do I own you for the wand?"
"The elder wood will cost you a lot, that sunstone was no ordinary sunstone at all so add that, I know where a herd of thestral live so that will not cost you a lot, even if you did not tell more about the mysterious metal one, thing I can figure out it that it costs a lot for sure, and I did not put in a tracker so add a little bit more for the risk I am taking, all in all, it will be 53 Gold Galleon." Ollivander says
That is 7 to 8 times a regular wand I think to myself.
My mother pays the amount and even gives thanks him for the wand, then we head out of the shop.
Time has quickly passed, and I was able to try some basic spell with my new wand like wingardium leviosa, after a while I was able to get a better understanding of how spellworks operates and I came to the same conclusion that my mother described.
In spellworks there is first natural energy which is like the power or electricity, then there is metal energy which shapes or molds the spell.
I was able to learn even more when I used my third eye at the same time that I used some spells, my wand helps focus my natural energy and the chants help focus my metal energy.
When I told my mother the things I figured out myself, my mother rewarded me by giving me a book on different ways of casting; like Chantless casting where you say the chant in your mind and not out loud, it is good for catching your opponent unaware. Then there is Intent casting where you do no chant out loud or in your mind, but you need a metal image, it is good because it is very quick. Then there is Wandless-Chant casting where you say the chant but without your wand, it is good when you lose your wand in battle. Finally, there is True Wandless casting where you hold the metal image and do not use a wand, it is the most difficult and only very powerful wizards and witches have mastered it.
I decided to put a lot of focus on learning these different types of casting and I asked if my mother knows who else can do these different types of casting to see how will other wizards and witches fare against me.
"Most wizards and witches would know a few spells chantless but only masters like your teachers at Hogwarts will master chantless casting. Powerful wizards and witches like Dumbledore will have mastered chantless casting and Wandless-Chant casting. Ancient wizards and witches like Nicholas Flamel and Perenelle would be able to use Intent casting." my mother reply back to me
I was able to test many potions I saved up on Hedwig and she has grown much with the potions I feed her; like the Strengthening potion, the Wit-Sharpening Potion, the Girding Potion, the Memory Potion, and the Gregory's Unctuous Unction. With this Hedwig is much clever, stronger, faster, smarter, human-like, and treats me like its parents.
We still have plenty of time to get there on time, but I am feeling jittery today since I am getting closer to catching my dream, I already have finished packing all my stuff and am waiting for my sister and parents to quickly come down stairs so that we can leave.
My father is the first one to come down stairs and see me nervously waiting down stairs "Is my little Caelum nervous, well I guess there is a first for everything."
"I am not nervous, I am just excited that is all and I am not little anymore." I say crossly
My mother pitches in at that moment, "Why do you not stop teasing my son and get the floo powder ready."
My father get the fire ready and my mother comes to me and say, "You will do wonderful at Hogwarts so there is no reason to freat."
I nod my head and my sister comes down finally, then we all gather around the flame, my father throws in some powder and we enter it one at a time, it is time for me to get to the train and get to Hogwarts to start on my next leg of the journey.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
