Hali had experienced many life changing circumstances, she had been orphaned, she had discovered magic, she had fought through war and she felt the death of all the people she considered family. Know after everything that has happened in Hali's life, she can quite honestly say she had not ever felt as happy (or as down right furious) as she did when the Gringotts goblins informed her that she wasn't as alone as she thought she was.


Sitting in the high chair of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was not some of the most exiting years of Hali Potter's life, than again with this many teenagers and children in one place it could never be exactly peaceful either. Still she can happily say that she enjoyed herself, she always did enjoy teaching, ever since the DA as a student.

Anyway, like all things she did eventually get bored, and decided after much consideration, that she wanted to leave England and find yet another adventure in a more 'exotic' setting. So, as she had no real idea of where she wanted to go first she went to Gringotts.

When Hali arrived at the bank she stopped and bowed her head slightly to the goblins standing guard. The goblin nation did eventually forgive her for the stealing incident all those years ago, after she had paid for the repairs... and a 'little' extra and 'returned' the sword of Gryffindor. Of course I say they forgave but they never forgot; in all honesty that's a lot more than she had expected.

After taking a quick scan of the room Hali approached a goblin teller with all the dignity of a pure-blood Lady and waited patiently to be acknowledged, it had taken a long time reach this level of patients, longer than she is willing to admit, she could still be outgoing but years of life have dulled her need to speak first and think later...well mostly.

When the goblin had finally looked up from his work with what must have been some parody of a smile Hali opened her mouth and said "how you doing Slash-hook" and the elegant pure-blood Lady was gone. Hali had known Slash-hook since his first day working within the bank, simply because it was tradition for goblins to apprentice under their parents, Grip-hook, Slash-hook's father, has been the Potter/Black account manager since Hali became a legal adult in the wizardry world. Technically, in goblin terms, Slash-hook was relatively young even if he had worked for about thirty years know.

"How may we help you Lady Potter" Slash-hook growled with his teeth bared in what Hali had decided was a smile. "Straight to business as usual than" Hali said with a put upon sigh "well I guess if that's how you want to be. I would like to speak to the Potter Black account manager, if you don't mind" Hali said this with a slight smile on her lips and mirth twinkling in her eyes, not that she would ever admit to it. With a slight tightening of his eyes Slash-hook nodded and climbed down from the counter "follow me" he said imperiously, causing Hali's mouth to give a slight twitch.

Following Slash-hook to the familiar cart and track caused Hali's eyes to give a slight shine of excitement. No matter how many years past she still held on to her thrill for speed with both hands and her nails in deep. After the cart ride Hali's smile was as wide as her face would allow, and it didn't leave until Slash-hook had knocked onto the giant heavy doors of his father's office. "Enter" was barked out through the door in a familiar gravelly voice. Walking in and having the door closed behind her was expected, she simply curtsied shallowly whilst keeping eye contact "good evening Grip-hook, how have you been" Hali greeted the goblin Grip-hook did not look as irritable as his son but then he had many more years of practice in dealing with 'annoyances' such as myself. "How may we be of service Lady Potter" Hali knowing Grip-hook was about as social as his son simply continues on "I would like a blood test done to find any estates and such outside of the UK" Hali had been to bank many times over the years though she never once asked to look at a bank statement or see all that she owned, simply because the shire amount of it all absolutely terrified her; but she guessed she had to look it all over at some point so she might as well do it know that she was leaving.

Grip-hook raised an eye-brow in what she assumed was surprise as he had tried and failed to convince her to go over her own accounts at least once a year. "very well" he rasped before removing an ornate ebony box containing a silver and ebony dagger and a parchment that smelled of truth potion. Cut your palm and allow five drops of blood to fall to the parchment". Picking up the dagger she dragged it across her palm without so much as a wince and dripped the crimson droplets onto the potion soaked parchment. Handing back the dagger Hali looked to see her palm already healing.

After Grip-hook had performed the correct spells in Gobbledygook the blood seeped into the parchment and began to form righting. Taking the parchment Hali took her time to go over the list, their wasn't anything their that she was over surprised by neither was their a property that grabbed her attention, not until she got to the bottom of the page.
