.
This was the place of her nightmares. She had dreamt about this place so much in the last few years and finally, here it was. Azkaban. It was both less and more than she had imagined. The coldness, however, had pierced through the dreams. She handed the guard the visitation order and was led to the visitor room. A veil of hexes separated the visitor and the criminal and the place stank of dampness. Celestia felt more than a little nauseous as she detected the unmistakable metallic tang of blood in the air. She knew the Dementors were mainly outside but that didn't compensate for the absolute misery of this place. She wouldn't wish this on her enemy.
And yet, this was where she was leaving her husband. Ex-husband, she corrected herself. Even the guard looked at her with a sneer, like he half-expected her to be part of the whole Death Eater business and was just as much of a criminal as Augustus was. Augustus...
She started pacing the room, worrying about how cold it was and how long anyone could survive in such a hellish atmosphere. Even though this was the finalization of the divorce and only the second time she had visited him in a good few months, she still didn't know. Trepidation was rising like bile in her throat and it was never very often she felt like this. She was never even as close to being as forgiving to Ianthe or her mother and yet... She shook her head and sat down again, resolving it was the best thing to do for the children. Could she ever even consider taking Nigel and Pipa into this? She was just protecting them as her grandfather and Dad protected her. The children was the reason here. They were the catalyst and she couldn't allow herself to back down.
