Chapter 2: New World

?: Oh I think he's waking up!

Solerean: What? Where.. am I?

?: Are you alright? How are u feeling Sol?

Solerean: Who are you?

?: I am the orphanage matron Emily remember? You've been sick all day with a fever how are u feeling?

Solerean: I am fine thanks, my head still hurts a bit though.

Emily: Ok get some rest. Call on me if you need anything

Solerean: Ok thank you!

Solerean started to think of his first steps in this new world, since he is 7 years old he has 4 more years until Hogwarts, obviously he will need to get to Gringotts the first chance he can but for now, a good nights sleep should do some good.

.....

The next morning,

Solerean woke up feeling refreshed and energized

"Ok! new day in a new world as a wizard, first things first let's try forcing accidental magic"

He started to imagine a force in his body starting from the core of his body flowing towards his hands, after a couple of minutes of trying to force it nothing happened

"Hmmm from what I read from fanfictions it will take both intent and emotion to use magic ill have to use a strong emotion and a specific intent, let's try to levitate my pillow"

After a few minutes of focusing on his joy of being in a new world and his intent to make his pillow float he started to feel something, a heat emanating from his core traveling towards his hands, and then suddenly he could see blue strands of energy flowing from his hands towards the pillow in front of him making it float slightly above his bed

"Amazing is this mage sight? is that magic? COOL! Ok I should practice wandless magic as much as possible before Hogwarts"

For the next few weeks, all Solerean did was practice his magic, help around the orphanage eat and sleep, soon months started to pass by and he hit his 8th birthday, which according to Emily was the same day as Harry Potter and Neville Longbottom July 31st.

Solerean decided he should visit Gringotts soon so that he can get a headstart on everything he needs to learn about the magical world, its laws, customs and the houses he is supposed to be an heir of, tomorrow is the day he will officially enter the magical world!

.....

The Next Day

After waking up, showering, eating breakfast, and brushing his teeth, Solerean asked Emily if he could head to the park, after she gave her permission he grabbed some of the money he had saved up for a bus ride towards the leaky cauldron in Charring Cross Road. Once he arrived there he was amazed by the feeling of energy surrounding it, he realized it must be a ward scheme in order to repel muggles.

"This must be mage sense the ability to sense magic and if I focus hard enough with my eyes"

He started to see wisps of blue surrounding the Leaky cauldron though he couldn't see it completely he saw parts of the dome surrounding the bar.

"And this is mage sight, I need to continue practicing them both"

Solerean headed inside the bar until the barman stopped him

"Aren't you a little young to be in this bar kid? I'm Tom the barman of The Leaky Cauldron"

"Hi sorry I am just trying to get to Diagon alley"

"It's alright kid just go through that door there"

"Thank you!" Said Solerean as he headed out the door

As he left the bar he came face to face with a bustling alley filled with wizards of witches dressed as if its the late 1800s, all the stores he dreamed of visiting and all the magical sights amazed him, Flourish and Bots, he would definitely visit there to buy as many books as possible, Eyelops Owl Emporium, Madam Malkins, Magical Menagerie, and the famous Ollivanders, though he knew he would have to wait until he finished his business with Gringotts

Solerean headed towards the towering mass of white marble, taller than any of the other stores, screaming wealth and protected by goblin guards. He saw the famous warning

Enter, stranger, but take heed

Of what awaits the sin of greed,

For those who take, but do not earn,

Must pay most dearly in their turn,

So if you seek beneath our floors

A treasure that was never yours,

Thief, you have been warned, beware

Of finding more than treasure there.

Damn was he excited as he went through the giant metal doors of Gringotts, he headed towards the farthest teller away from prying eyes and spoke

"Hello, my name is Solerean what is your name Mr.?"

The goblin surprised by a wizard calling him mister replied after a few seconds

"My name is Griphook child what can I do for you?"

"I would like to do an inheritance test my mother and father left a note with instructions to ask for it to be done here before dropping me off at the orphanage"

"Are you sure child? Inheritance tests cost around 200 galleons, in case you aren't aware of our exchange rate 1 galleon is equal to 17 sickles which equal 493 knuts and a galleon is worth 10 pounds so what you are asking for costs 2000 pounds and most of the time people who complete inheritance tests do not get anything but debt"

"Yes I am sure, thanks for the warning though"

Griphook sighed and led him towards the inheritance room

"Now all you have to do is prick your finger and let 7 drops of blood fall on the bowl"

After taking a second to calm himself Solerean proceeded to prick his finger and bleed into the bowl, a few seconds passed by before the quill near the bowl dipped itself into the blood and started to write upon the parchment

Griphook surprised by any reaction at all had the doors to the room sealed

"Now lets see what your inheritance is child" spoke Griphook as he started to read the parchment
