Harry Potter: The Ring Maker

Chapter 3: Orphanage and starter pack

After being left alone for half an hour the woman finally returned with a new set of clothes for Nick that she had an officer have his wife bring up to the station that were hand downs but should fit Nick. He didn't mind wearing second hand clothes since he had an older brother before he had found himself in his current situation so he had worn them before. It was a simple set of clothes made of jeans , a t-shirt , underwear , socks and shoes that was slightly too big but otherwise fit just fine.-

Despite the wounds on his head the woman said that Nick was a pretty cute kid and was sure to grow up into a real heartbreaker. He thought she was merely trying to make him feel better and nodded without really agreeing which seemed to make her happy enough. An actual doctor came in eventually and tested Nick a bit with several specially designed test after which he declared Nick to truly have amnesia. The cause was obviously the multiple blunt force injuries on his head and the after checking all of the other wounds on Nick stated that it was likely some older children around thirteen who probably did it from the fact none of his bones were broken.-

Nick had to stay the night at the police office as they looked for his parents or any other place for him to stay. The next day when no public records of Nick came up they started the process of moving Nick into an orphanage as a ward of the state. The nearest orphanage willing to take him in was saint Mathews home for the lost. It was a well funded place that obviously took good care of the children there as they were well fed and each had laugh lines from smiling.

The rules for the orphanage weren't particularly hard to follow as it was basic stuff like no fighting or stealing so Nick was a very well behaved individual if a bit quiet since he didn't talk much. The care takers merely thought that it was because of his head injury and didn't push him to interact with the other kids. It was only after a week that Nick finally got enough privacy in his room to accept the starter pack from the system safely in his opinion.-

He was very excited about it but double checked the makeshift lock on the door to insure secrecy. 'Lets see if this is worth the wait' Nick thought while mentally hitting the Y option.

[YOU RECIEVED]

50 galleons

1 small ingot of goblin silver

1 temporary access to the spectral forge

1 Crafting style roulette ticket

1 purifying potion

On the ground in front of Nick five items shimmered into existence out of seemingly nowhere , a small pile of golden coins , a small silver bar two inches long and half an inch side and deep , a ticket that shimmered like a rainbow and released a faint mist , a red ticket with a white roulette wheel drawn on it and a corked test tube with a green liquid in it.-

'That was..... underwhelming.' Nick thought with a sigh and a shake of his head at how overhyped up he had done this action. this whole time he had assumed it would be some grand and amazing thing but in truth the items just manifested without any fanfare. 'Now what is all this stuff?' he thought as he reached out and picked up a single one of the gold coins and examined it carefully.

He couldn't explain it but there was a sort of feeling coming from the coin that screamed how it was different than normal money but Nick couldn't tell what until a small screen appeared next to the coin describing it.

[Galleon: The highest denomination used by wizards or witches in this world , worth seventeen sickles or four hundred and ninety three knuts]

'Well that's handy , also confusing since the conversions of those coins are hard to keep track of.' Nick thought with a frown as he fried his brain trying to figure out the ratio for the conversion of smaller coins to bigger ones. 'What are these other things good for then?'

[Small goblin silver ingot: A jewelers ingot of goblin silver. Goblin silver hold enchantments fairly well and is stronger than normal silver by many times.]

[Access ticket: When torn sends the host to the spectral forge that exist in the wraith realm and is fully stocked with any equipment a smith could ever want.]

[Roulette ticket: when torn summons the related roulette wheel for a single random prize as per what it lands on.]

[Purification potion: A potion created for the sole purpose of removing the impurities in ones magic circuits that form over time from inactivity.]
