Ugh Family

[Indira Singh]

Oh sweet Merlin. Indira had always thought her father was being silly when he talked about riding about on magic carpets in his younger days—he had, after all, not brought one to England with him when he had come with her mother. To discover that they were actually a thing people used was…surprising. Indian culture would never cease to feel foreign to her—some of the more traditional aspects might have been a part of her upbringing, but as far as day-to-day things, Indira Singh was very much British.

“I am sure you will do fine!” the witch replied—a lie, but one she hoped would comfort. She did not know this girl enough to think anything of her potential skills one way or the other. Perhaps they would have been friends under different circumstances, but these were not those.
