Closed Looking for Answers

[Margo Fox]

Margo had been so certain that things would be different for her this year. But the feast and the first week of lessons had her questioning her resolve. She missed Isadora and sometimes felt completely lost even though she knew this castle backwards and forwards by now. Still, she had been tempted to give up and be the same shy recluse as before but with even fewer friends. Yet as the days went on and she settled in to her usual school routine and she found her footing again, and started to remember what it had felt like to be brave. Or what passed for brave by her standards which wasn't a lot but was better than surrendering to her sadness. She had been dead set on trying to find her brother on the train ride here, but she was quickly finding that it would be much harder than she originally thought. Margo had come to the library most afternoons looking for answers but there wasn't really a book out there that was a guide to finding lost brothers. Instead she found herself poking through mystery novels trying to find some kind of advice. If only Avery had gone to Hogwarts. At least then she could look at old yearbooks and try and find his classmates. At least there would be some place to start. But right now she felt totally lost.
