HISTORY When Daphne eventually turned 5 though, her parents decided that she may start taking some basic primary school type lessons with some of the other pure-blooded children of their friends. While these lessons were nothing like those that she would have received in a muggle institution, it did teach her important lessons such as reading, writing, basic maths, cooking, a skewed purist version of history, languages, music and most importantly, how to be a good guest or host. Unfortunately for her, the older boy had very different ideas on how the rest of the evening would go for them. While at first, she tried to politely rebuff his advances, things soon took a very different turn and he knocked her to the ground. Fighting back as hard as she could she hit out with her arms and her legs, until she was eventually overpowered by the much larger, older boy who pinned her to the ground. Looking across the grass, she could vaguely see a shape move slow at first, then more rapidly towards her and the boy, before the weight on top of her was gone. When she came to her senses enough to pick sit up off the ground, she witnessed the son of a friend of the family, Romulus Rookwood chasing the other boy off. Once the other boy was gone, Romulus helped Daphne to her feet and used his wand to cast spells, so nobody would ever know anything happened, before they returned to the ball for a night of dancing. While the event is seldom ever mentioned, it was from that moment that Daphne realised what true friendship was and swore to one day return the favour to the blonde haired quiet man. So, when they were all called to the Great Hall and given the option to stay or go, the decision in Daphne’s opinion was an easy one. Unsure of what might face those escaping through to the Hogs Head, Daphne decided to follow the one person who truly had her loyalty in this all, her sister. So, grabbing the hands of first years of different houses, Daphne made it look like she was trying to herd the younger years to safety and disappeared through the hole without a second thought. A decision that upon seeing the outcome of the final battle, she did not regret in the slightest. While her father initially protested a lady of her standing, taking such a menial and low-level job, she was eventually able to convince him of its benefits. While it initially took some convincing, as Daphne had not yet attracted a suitable husband, her father a keen businessman could see the benefits of a daughter who knew how the Ministry ran from the inside. Benefits like the new and improved connections that she could make, that would open doors for the family’s business of apothecaries, and of course the potential to meet a suitor with a powerful standing. So, a mere two weeks after the initial conversation with her father’s friend, Daphne had her induction at the Ministry and for the first time in a long time, was as happy with her life as she could be. |
