Later, he returned it to its original habitat in Arizona.
In order to make all the Muggle citizens of New York forget the magical event that had occurred, Newt had no choice but to release Frank out of New York City to help spread the venom of the Winged Demon.
Finally, Frank flew back to Arizona and returned to his life.
However, this story has nothing to do with what Dolly is going to do today; what Dolly is interested in is this feather.
Thunderbird tail feathers can be used as wand cores. Wands made with thunderbird tail feathers are difficult to wield, but they usually possess great power and are suitable for performing Transfiguration spells.
Because the Thunderbird is extremely sensitive to supernatural dangers, wands made from its feathers are said to be able to preemptively fire spells.
This undoubtedly best suits Dolly's current needs.
She wanted a wand that she could use privately in order to deal with any unforeseen circumstances.
To put it bluntly, it was a sneak attack by another wizard.
The Thunderbird's tail feathers would give Dolly more reaction time.
Moreover, Dolly didn't intend to use them directly to make wands; instead, she planned to enhance them with her own attribute points first.
This was undoubtedly a huge investment, but Dolly felt it was worthwhile.
After all, the opportunity to enhance the materials may only come once. Once the wand is made, enhancing it will enhance the entire wand.
After deciding on the materials, Dolly looked at the dazzling array of wood, and in that instant, she had her own answer.
That's fir wood.
Although other wand materials are also good at Transfiguration, the luck inherent in fir wood can help Dolly survive better in a sneak attack.
Luck is a real attribute in the world of Harry Potter; for example, the Felix Laureate in Potions has this effect.
Felix Felicis, once ingested, grants a person great luck for twelve hours, making them feel successful in everything they do until the effects wear off.
It was because Harry took Felix Felicis that he received his memory of "Riddle asking Slughorn about Horcruxes" from Slughorn.
Furthermore, Thunderbird's tail feathers and fir wood are suitable for performing Transformation, and Dory is currently most skilled at Transformation.
The combination of the two might directly raise Dolly's Transfiguration level to a higher level.
In addition, fir wood is associated with good fortune, and thunderbirds are extremely sensitive to supernatural dangers, so they may also possess a special ability to react.
Thinking about this, Dolly couldn't wait any longer.
However, she first put the materials on the table and then began to draw a sketch of the new wand.
Because in addition to the material of the wand and the core, the external length and shape, as well as the structure of the internal grooves, are also very important.
142 An Unexpected Guest, Luna
Dolly thought that the intricate patterns inside the wand were most likely related to ancient runes.
Ancient runes, or runes, are also known as runic script.
It is an extinct alphabet used to form runic languages and was used in medieval Europe, particularly in Scandinavia and the British Isles, to write certain Nordic Germanic languages.
In Germanic mythology, Odin, the father of the gods, hung himself on a tree for nine days and nine nights in search of greater wisdom, contemplating the mysteries of the universe.
When he descended from the World Tree, he comprehended the secret of the runes—the secret of the universe, which Heimdall imparted to humanity and expressed in the form of the runic alphabet.
Therefore, runes are considered to be a magical script and may be related to the origins of magic.
However, based on Dolly's understanding of runes, it is simply an ancient script used by ancient wizards to record their spellcasting experiences and explorations of magic.
This is the true value of learning ancient runes for a wizard.
So even though Dolly felt that Ollivander's hidden methods and secrets were there, she had no intention of investigating further.
Because this is clearly not something that can be accomplished overnight; it may even require a long period of research.
By the time Dolly had thoroughly researched these things before making her first wand, either Harry or Voldemort would probably be long gone.
Therefore, Dolly used the most basic structure to plan the internal channels of the wand to ensure that the power of the wand core could be maximized.
Dolly didn't finish the sketch until Ollivander returned.
Since it was her first time trying, Dolly wanted to push herself to the limit.
When Ollivander pushed open the door and saw the materials Dolly had selected, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
However, he quickly realized that Dolly wanted to create a wand that would be perfect for her to use Transfiguration.
This made Ollivander feel both gratified and somewhat regretful.
It's reassuring that Dolly continues to have her own thoughts, and that her explorations are simple and effective.
Unfortunately, Dolly was not his perfect successor, because Dolly was thoughtful and could not accept Ollivander's advice in its entirety.
For example, Dolly directly gave up her three favorite staff cores: unicorn tail hair, dragon heart nerve, and phoenix feather.
This is not something an ordinary apprentice would do.
Ultimately, Ollivander did not speak up to stop Dolly, nor did he offer any advice.
Instead, he calmly helped Dolly check the design sketches, and after confirming that there were no mistakes or omissions, he let Dolly do it.
Perhaps this is the most suitable way for him and Dolly to get along: he acts as a guide for Dolly, while how Dolly develops is up to her.
As for the idea of making Dolly his apprentice and bringing glory to the Ollivander name, that was clearly impossible.
Over the next two days, Dolly repeatedly refined her draft and finally finalized the plan.
Ultimately, Dolly chose to make a wand that was only eight inches long, made of fir wood, with a core of thunderbird tail feathers.
The length of the wand is also an issue that must be considered.
Most wands are between 9 and 14 inches long, but very short ones, shorter than 8 inches, and very long ones, longer than 15 inches, also exist, though they are very rare.
Normally, the length of a wand should take into account the wizard's arm span and their own usage habits.
But with Dolly, Dolly can start from a purely practical perspective.
This wand is Dolly's second wand, and it's the one she usually hides away and doesn't need to use.
Dolly designed it to be as short as possible to achieve a surprise effect.
In addition, Dolly had another idea: if he could design the wands to be shorter, would that mean she could wear more wands?
If an eight-inch wand is called a wand, then what about five-inch, three-inch, or even one-inch wands?
A normal wizard certainly wouldn't use such a wand, but what can you do when Dolly isn't a normal wizard?
When Dolly wears these one-inch wands, they become more than just wands; they become powerful amulets.
This allows Dolly to use a wider variety of magic, and also provides her with comprehensive attribute bonuses.
Dolly hadn't forgotten that she could seek out magical artifacts to increase her attributes.
However, Dragon Blood Warm Jade is not something that can be obtained easily.
A wand that can be artificially manufactured would better suit Dolly's needs, and could even be customized to meet her requirements.
When Dolly reaches the maximum passive attribute with her one-inch wand, she will truly have enough security.
Of course, this will take time.
At least that's not something Dolly needs to think about this summer.
After finalizing the plan, Dolly began her meticulous work.
From wood to wand, from tail feathers to wand core, it's a process that requires careful polishing.
Ollivander was already very skilled at this, which is why he could manage to do it for a day or two, or at most a week.
When she got to Dolly's place, she was only allowed one hour of work time each day, without disturbing Ollivander's work.
So Dolly thought it would be good enough if she could make the wand this month.
"You've actually become Mr. Ollivander's apprentice?"
Hermione came to visit Dolly, her face showing an incredulous expression.
Ollivander had already handed his workbench to Dolly, and Dolly shrugged and said, "It's not that I don't want to play with you, but finishing this is indeed my most important task right now."
Hermione's face showed disappointment.
She spent the first month of her summer vacation traveling with her family, and now that she's back, the thing she wants to do most is spend time with Dolly.
But Dolly, who is usually the most playful and lazy, has taken up wand-making skills this summer and is doing exceptionally well at it.
This made Hermione feel betrayed, and at the same time, it gave her a greater sense of urgency.
"Is there really no time to play at all?"
Hermione asked reluctantly, "For example, if you can't make wands in the morning, why don't you come out and play with us?"
Dolly thought for a moment, then shook her head and said, "Although Mr. Ollivander would certainly agree, I think it's better to stay focused."
"Even if it's just helping Mr. Ollivander, it's a way of thanking him for his teachings."
Dolly was very grateful for Ollivander's selflessness, and she knew very well that this was not a typical boss-apprentice relationship.
Ollivander intended to groom her to be a true heir, but unfortunately Dolly was clearly not interested in that, and Ollivander ultimately failed to express his true feelings.
This is a testament to their mutual understanding; they've always had a great understanding of each other.
This means that Ollivander truly and selflessly passed on his knowledge and experience to Dolly, and was just short of teaching Dolly how to make the best wand.
Ollivander did not ask for anything in return, and even paid Dolly a salary of one Galleon a day.
A few days ago, Dolly received her salary of 30 Galleons.
This was obviously not much money for Dolly, but it represented Ollivander's attitude.
Faced with Ollivander's actions, Dolly naturally wanted to do more to repay him.
At least this summer, Dolly is determined to dedicate herself to helping Ollivander with the shop's affairs and to save Mr. Ollivander from being harmed by Voldemort in the future.
This can be considered Dolly's way of repaying Ollivander's teachings.
"alright, I got it."
Hermione knew Dolly's personality very well.
