The First Page: [V i d e o]

I haven't the slightest clue why I was brought to...? [What does she even call this place? A forest? A paradise? She doesn't feel entirely settled with calling her new surroundings the latter. Something is definitely off. After all, hadn't she been in the Headmaster's office at Hogwarts a moment ago?

Crossing her arms over her chest, she presses her lips together, a determined glint in her eyes.]


My name is Hermione Granger and I know for a fact that I did not choose to come here. Nor did I choose to have wings fastened onto my back.

[That part is quite curious. Bringing her somewhere against her will is one thing, but attaching wings to her back without her realizing it is another. She wonders if she had been rendered unconscious for awhile.]

Is there any way to rid myself of them? They are...cumbersome. [Not to mention they make her feel like a walking target.

She lowers her voice and adds in an undertone:]
It's a shame Luna didn't come with me. This seems like something out of The Quibbler.

[Rolling her shoulders to relieve some tension, she exhales.]

I have a number of questions for anyone who has the time. I've tried to speak to the villagers, but they're not terribly... [animate] ...helpful. I wonder if they're under some spell?

[Hermione shakes her head and shifts from foot to foot.]


I would sincerely appreciate any aid. Thank you.

I am! I have a little campsite set up for myself with a fire pit and everything. It's pretty great.

[He almost gets distracted but then remembers the important stuff.]

Uh, but about people disappearing... there are apparently people keeping us here and they sometimes kidnap people and experiment on them. It's pretty crazy. I've only had one friend it's happened to so far but I imagine there will be others.

And as for why it's a cage, well... people are brought here from all over space and time without rhyme or reason and we can't leave. Also we get these little wings. Mine look like pigeon wings. They're sensitive and if you pull them it feels like getting kicked between the legs, so don't do that.

The wings are... I'm not even sure. I think I heard someone say they allow us to understand everyone but that doesn't make sense to me. I can get mine to flap with practice but I mean, look at them. They're so small they'd never lift me.

I don't know anything about the experiments other than that they happen at this point. I'm a little grateful for it, to be honest. I wouldn't want to end up in one. I hope there's a way to stop them but so far, if you think about it, these people brought us here without us even knowing how and gave us wings.

It makes you think just what else they could do without our even being able to think about it before it had already happened.

From what I've been told, Miss Granger, everything is apparently free. You can go find yourself a place to stay so long as it's not occupied and make it yours. The shops are pretty great for that, too.

Myself, I haven't seen any nature at all for ten years now so this? I wouldn't miss it. Camping is the best thing to restore the spirit.

Camping definitely isn't a permanent thing for most people. I don't blame you for wanting a roof over head and some time off from the bugs. Personally, considering how long it's been, I'll deal with it a while longer.

[And he chuckles.]

Then the village is likely your best bet! Seriously, just go check it out. And if you're ever up for a roasted fish, let me know.

[And he grins.]

Good luck!
