Ollivander's Wands

You walk into Ollivander's Wand Shop and are immediately greeted by Mr. Ollivander.

"Why hello!" he says. "Here to get your first wand?"

"Yup," you say. He takes out a measuring tape and begins measing you in every which way. As the distance been your nostrils is being measured, you realize that the tape is doing this without Mr. Olivanders assistance.

"That's enough," he says and the measuring tape falls into a heap on the ground. He turns to a shelf and takes down a box. He takes out a wand, and hands it to you. "Give it a wave," he says.

Feeling quite foolish, you wave the wand through the air . Almost immediately, he takes it away and gives you another one. You wave this one, and he quickly takes this one away too. He keeps doing this, putting the tried wands in a pile on the chair. After what seems like the whole store is piled on that chair, he gives you another one to try. When you wave it, fireworks errupt from the end.

"That's the one!" he says excitedly. "A very nice wand. 15 1/2 inches, birch, with one unicorn hair. Slightly flexible, expecially good for transfiguration."

"Wow!" you say excidedly. "How much does it cost?" you ask worriedly.

"10 Galleons," he says. "You do have enough don't you?"

"Of course," you say, slightly embarassed. "I was expecting it to be more," you lied. You'll need to visit Gringotts after this.

"Very well," he says. "May I have your owl?"

"Of course," you say, "its
." You him and leave.
