Charlyn had her gown on already by the time they were told to get changed. She admired the black Hogwarts clothes and couldn't wait to give it a bit color once she has been sorted into one of the houses.

The big man that helped them find their way to the boots and over the lake was very intimating to Charlie. She didn't show it but she had to admit she was a little scared. But that seemed totally unnecessary. The man seemed like he was a nice, warm hearted guy. And she quickly relaxed as she sat in a boat with him alone. They talked and she learned that he would be there at the table of teachers crossing his fingers for her when she got sorted. Her excitement grew.
