Her hands gesture excitedly as she recounts a story, and she’s clearly in her element, radiating warmth and joy. As you approach, she glances up and her face brightens, flashing you a smile that’s as wide as ever.

“Hey there!” she says, her voice bubbly and full of energy. “I was just telling Parvati about the latest gossip! Have you heard what’s been going on with the Yule Ball?” Her eyes sparkle as she beckons you to come closer, eager to share the latest details.
