Having stopped shaving for a few days following his decision to quit the Ministry and apply for his apprenticeship at Septima, Terry looked at himself in the mirror in his bathroom. It was his last night at the flat, for he had broken his lease and put everything in storage. He would be living at the sanctuary now.
Terry had received his approval by owl surprisingly very quick. He wondered why, since he and the owner of the sanctuary were not exactly on the greatest of terms. Maybe this was Mr. Lucis' way of presenting an olive branch? Terry didn't know. All he did know was that his life had been turned upside down in a matter of a week.
"I think I'll keep it," Terry said to himself in the mirror, running a hand through the dark scruff on his face. It covered his baby face, giving him a more rugged look. More suitable for a would-be dragon keeper. Examining himself more in the mirror until his reflection scowled back at him, he grabbed a towel and headed into the shower.
Hours later, he was standing knee deep in dragon dung with a shovel, wondering what he had done to deserve his life.
