Viktor thought of this day as a test, every bit as consequential as the batteries of written and practical testing at Durmstrang, or the World Cup trial matches. If he was to help wizarding England, he had to be accepted into it -- and not as a Quidditch star. If that could not be managed, he might as well go home, as his sister implored him to; he would do no good here.
The weather had been reasonably cooperative, at least: though the day was overcast and a touch humid, it did not look like rain, and was thankfully not grilling-hot. Every ward and concealment Viktor had in his arsenal he had used on the makeshift pitch and the area around it. When they were gone, curious Muggles would see no more than trampled moor, perhaps a mole-run or a fox-digging where the goalposts were. While they were there, curious Muggles... would go around.
All was in readiness; Viktor permitted himself a moment to breathe, and murmur a short prayer he had learnt in childhood. |
