After reassuring Lavender that she really was okay, and explaining that she had no idea why anyone would target her after all she really wasn't that remarkable. Brynn felt as normal as anyone else unless they were going after people with non-magic parents. She happened to be the only muggle born in the carriage, not that it made a bit of a difference she was still very magical just like everyone else, end of discussion. After that she refused to talk on the subject, changing the subject to obscure muggle things anytime it came up.
A couple hours later a witch came along and told them all to get their robes on and that they'd arrive soon. Brynn took this as a happy distraction, excuseing herself to put on the second hand robes that her mother was able to afford. They were a bit too big but that didn't bother Brynn much, it just meant they'd fit next year too.
At hogsmead station and all the way to the castle Brynn stuck close to those she'd known on the train. The giant man was frightening at first, though after a while his demeanor proved quite the opposite. He was a pleasant old fellow and a story teller. Across the lake he told about the giant squid and the merefolk and everything else between his chat with a student up in his boat. Then up to the castle he told about the forest, though they were not to go in it! Finally he left them at the castle with the same women who had saved Brynn hours ago. She soon left them too, going to ensure that everything was ready for the sorting. Brynn turned toward all the friends who'd stuck around. "well here we are, I figure we're about to be sorted isn't this swell," she said excitedly. "I do hope we'll see each other again, even if we do end up in different houses."
