Before the sky had even begun to brighten and the sun hid shyly behind the horizon, Lancelot already opened his eyes in the chamber where he sat in meditation. He perceived a strong and familiar presence that had arrived at Hagrid Manor, slowly walking over the garden's low-lying grass.
Lancelot stood up straight away and walked out of the chamber through the tunnel that served as its exit. After a night of meditation and cultivation, his clothes were as if enchanted to be spotless, and a faint luminescence on his skin gradually faded away, leaving him looking rejuvenated.
When he passed the gym, which had been converted from an interrogation room, his figure caught the attention of little Isa, who was hanging upside down on a cross, practicing sit-ups. Faced with the girl's inquisitive gaze, Lancelot nodded gently, after which the vampire Wanderer silently flipped down from the rack, trailing behind Lancelot like a small cat.
