Merry Christmas, June!

Can I honestly confess how incredibly dull the castle is with no one around? Sure there have been moments but everything is so quiet I almost miss the classes (almost, not quite). It’s given me plenty of time to bake at least, and with all of Mum’s family recipes I certainly was not short for choices. The package has some of the usual Fawley gingerbread cookies, fudge, and assorted sweets - my apologies if any of it is inedible, I didn’t have my family’s careful supervision this go around. I like them but all of this quiet might be getting to my head.

It’s been good to see Lai so happy though, even though I worry about her and her friends running around the castle with some of those who happened to have stayed as well. I elected not to worry Mum and Dad about that, but I’m not sure they entirely believed my sudden interest in studying. I think they felt better once they started getting Lai’s letters and I wrote them about the Christmas market - you know how my mum gets about everything magic.

I hope everything is wonderful at home and you’re having a fanastic Christmas as well. I hear the high society are having their own shindigs too and I imagine some pretty interesting stories will come out of that. Are you going to make an appearance? I know its not your thing, but I also know that you’re friends with one of the Black sisters.

Hope you’re having a happy Christmas,
