Jay got how the kids raised in this world lived without the modern conveniences, but the ones like them? The ones they called muggles? They all had them, even more than the island kids did. How did they manage it? Even he had to agree with Carols on that one.

"What? Rules? I love rules," he said, laughing even as he did, nose wrinkling.

"Yeah, your mother," Jay said, smirking and jostling Carlos as he said it. Okay maybe she wasn't the scariest thing on the island, lookswise, but close enough for the scowls.

Jay snorted though at that. "Man, you have no idea. But all I could think about was how fast are goblins. Once I know, we'll see." They relied so much on magic, he wondered how well sleight of hand and speed might do.

Boxes lined the shelves, going so far up to the roof that Jay couldn't even see in the darkness to where they ended. "Wow," he muttered, turning in a slow circle.

"Wow is right," said a man standing behind the counter, looking old and wizened. "And well well, the new children that aren't wizards and aren't muggles. I had been hoping you would come by soon."
