Chapter 11: the strange wand
The robes have high comfort to wear as they are made with high quality materials.
As for the robes that harry ordered they are not as good as the robes that Narcissa ordered.
She did not think if Jonathan was able to pay or not as she was sure that Jonathan has enough money for the clothes and other things.
She knows that black family well.
After the dresses were prepared Jonathan paid 3 gold galleons for all the robes.
Since it is two sets of clothes it took longer.
Also Jonathan's group came right after harry so harry left first and their group left after that.
Now they went to the Ollivander's wand shop to buy their wands.
Mr. Ollivander puts Harry off with his creepy demeanor while discussing the wands purchased by Lucius and Narcissa.
After that he spoke about Jonathan's parents Sirius black and Mary Goldsman.
Draco was the first to buy his wand and the selection was quick.
Draco Malfoy's wand was 10" long, made of hawthorn wood, and had a unicorn hair core.
Now it was Jonathan's turn.
Naturally choosing the wand has a great significance.
This is because the type of wand can tell the nature of the person.
They want to know what kind of person Jonathan is.
So they are eagerly waiting.
Ollivander took one wand after the other but none of them went well with Jonathan.
Soon a small pile of wands are left on the side with none of them matching.
Ollivander's fighting spirit has improved and started to take the old wands that were made by his fathers and grandfathers.
These wands are not special.
It is just that they did not find the right owner over the years.
Because of this those wands are collecting dust behind the shelves.
After an hour when Lucius and Narcissa are losing patience, Ollivander took out an old green box that is actually made out of grass leaves.
The packaging is a little funny and primitive.
But the strong vitality can be seen from the grass that is still green without withering.
If someone accidentally saw this they would think that this grass was cut just few minutes ago.
There is even a soothing smell of freshly cut grass.
After a little while of fiddling he took out something looked like grass stem.
Sometimes grass forms a pole like things in the middle when it grows tougher.
It is just like bamboo and sugarcane which are grass varieties.
The magical grass is special.
Every few hundred years there will be a grass stem formed from the grass.
It has special properties and has a little more strength like the wooden texture.
Also it has naturally hallowed internal structure for wand making.
Currently the magic is not available because of the rapid industrialization of the muggle world.
Grass is originally wild in nature and it can grow anywhere.
But to produce a strong things like grass stem it needs to stay undisturbed for a long time.
The long time means hundreds of years or even more.
So there are not many materials related to grass stem in the current magic world.
As for the wand core it was the heart of the magical creature druid.
Plant based magical creatures are rare and almost extinct in current magical world.
The heart of druid would be in liquid state and when the druid dies the liquid solidifies forming a gem like substance that has strong vitality.
For this current wand core the heart of living druid was collected in liquid state and poured into a mold to create a cylindrical wand core that fits the grass stem.
They are both mixed with the adhesive of the liquid druid heart core forming the current wand.
Plants are immortals, if there is no external interference most plants, especially grass would never die.
At the same time plants are ruthless that they could consume anything to survive and grass has the highest form of survivability in this world.
Grass can survive in the extreme weathers and even flourish at that place.
As for the druid magical creature, it is a plant based living creature that is like a priest in the plants.
Also some druids can be considered to be the progenitor race or pinnacle race of the plants other than plant based spirits.
Some even call them plant gods but they are ancient magical creatures.
The person needs to have the strong survival instinct and special nature to gain the allegiance of this kind of wand.
Fortunately Jonathan fits the bill.
When Ollivander gave this wand to Jonathan, Jonathan made a simple swish.
Immediately the flower in the small pot at the window still on the side showed vitality again.
It is like it came back to life and bloomed fully almost immediately.
With that the wand is set for Jonathan.
Ollivander looked a little stunned as he did not expect that the seemingly stubborn black family has this kind of heart.
Grass can bend in any direction.
In typhoon the big trees might fall but the grass root would stay still no matter what.
Even the great forest fire could not stop the grass from growing back almost immediately.
With this wand in the hands of the heir of the black family, he was sure that the things are about to change in a different way.
Jonathan seems to be satisfied with the wand and asked Ollivander about the price of the wand.
"Mister Ollivander, how much does this wand costs."
Ollivander came back to his senses and immediately said.
"It would be 12 gold galleons."
Even Lucius was shocked by the cost.
Well it was costly.
Jonathan touched the wand feeling its texture.
It looked like a green wooden stick that is still green but not dried.
There is a strong sense of vitality coming from the wand and it actually bends to some extent even the core inside felt like still in liquid state....
