Jameson had been to Obsidian Harbour twice since moving to Wellington, spending his first visit seeing shops and drinking in The Shadow Tavern down Bleak Street, and his second at The Leaky Cauldron conning a half drunk group of wizards out of fifty galleons in a card game. But today he had spent time in a few of the shops purchasing books and food, enjoying the air and the atmosphere of the Harbour. Before he knew it the night was fast approaching and the sun had begun to dip down below the horizon, casting a glow over the streets as the streetlamps began to light up. Caught up in his own thoughts he walked down the main street, his hands twitching inside the pockets of his robe, and his mouth humming an old tune he learned from a Muggle shepherd as a child. Though no words came from his mouth, in his mind the words were vivid and rolled forth creating a picturesque image that was pleasant to behold.
An old Irish folk song from the 18th century it was, handed down from generation to generation, or so the shepherd had claimed. He often said things of that nature. He made grandiose statements, such as he was related to the Lords in the Northern country, or that his great-great grandfather was a counselor to the American generals in their civil war. The validity of his claims were never discovered and truth be told, Jameson saw no need to pursue the truth. The image of the rough shepherd, descended from nobility into a poor man proud of his heritage, was both a sad and amusing one, and Jameson found that to change that image would be to change part of his childhood. It was as he thought this that he suddenly walked straight into a stranger heading in the opposite direction.
Abroad as I was walking,
Down by the river side,
I gazed all around me,
An Irish girl I spied;
So red and rosy were her cheeks,
And yellow was her hair,
And costly were the robes of gold
My Irish girl did wear.
Down by the river side,

An Irish girl I spied;
So red and rosy were her cheeks,
And yellow was her hair,
And costly were the robes of gold
