Hogwarts is quiet of a summer evening.

Not silent, of course. A few of the teachers are about. As are the house elves. Several of the people in the portraits have, in the absence of the students, gathered for a somewhat raucous party in the large painting of the Viking hall on the fourth floor landing. And Peeves is taking advantage of the acoustics in the Great Hall to practice a musical ode to bangers and mash.

(The lyrics are questionable, but the tune is catchy. Enough so that Dumbledore is humming it as he walks through the castle.)

But the usual bustle and buzz are absent, and for now Hogwarts feels like any other house with all the children gone. A bit larger and more rambly than one usually notices that it is.

They’ll be back soon, of course. In the matter of a few short weeks.

Dumbledore’s steps follow old, familiar paths through the castle. He has, after all, been walking these corridors for decades. Yet the wonderful thing about Hogwarts is that there are still always surprises along the way.

Such as when the steps through a door on the first floor near the hospital wing.

And finds himself somewhere quite surprising indeed.
