Once upon a time, in a small town called Willowville, there was a young boy named Harry. Harry was an ordinary boy with an extraordinary imagination. He loved to read books and explore the world of fantasy. His favorite place in his room was his bookshelf, filled with stories of magical creatures, enchanted lands, and brave heroes. One day, while Harry was browsing through a local antique shop, he stumbled upon an old dusty pen. There was something special about this pen that caught his attention.
Zephaniah gave Sophie all her knowledge of Air Magic and all her memories. Zephaniah was with Sophie, Josh, and Nicholas Flamel when Dee attacked Zephaniah's tiny antique shop. In order to get out of the shop, Zephaniah sent the others through a leygate to Paris and then blew up the shop while she and Dee were inside, destroying all the remains of a mirror leygate. However, they both survived. This was in the newspapers, and supposedly was a bomb of some sort.
At this point, Josh begins to theorize that she gave her memories to Sophie to habituate a better, younger body essentially, Sophie s body would become the Witch. That a supernatural appearance is here described is inferred from the repeated emphasis laid on the statement that Samuel had died and had been buried I Sam.
There was something special about this pen that caught his attention. The pen had a golden nib and was delicately carved with intricate patterns. It seemed mysterious and magical.

The Editors of Encyclopaedia Britannica Last Updated: Article History Table of ContentsWitch of Endor, in the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament; 1 Samuel 28:3–25), a female sorcerer who was visited by Saul, the first king of Israel. Although Saul had banished all sorcerers and conjurers from his kingdom, his concern about the final outcome of Israel’s battle against the Philistines caused him to seek the services of someone with “a familiar spirit.” When his servants told him of such a woman at Endor, he disguised himself and visited her that night. He asked her to conjure up the spirit of the prophet Samuel to tell his fortunes. When the woman reminded him of the law against practicing her art, he assured her that she would be protected. The woman accordingly conjured up a spirit identified by Saul as Samuel. The spirit informed Saul that he and his three sons would die in battle the next day and that the Israelites would fall to the Philistines.
The story of the Witch of Endor has excited the creative imagination through the ages and has inspired further embellishment of her practices. Chaucer, for example, in the Friar’s Tale of The Canterbury Tales, spoke of her as a “pithonesse,” and the 16th-century writer Guillaume de Salluste, seigneur du Bartas, suggested in La Semaine that she used a “flambeau” made from the fat of her own son in the necromantic art.

After growing up on Danu Talis together and becoming close friends, Zephaniah married Mars Ultor. Together they protected the humani and stood against the Dark Elders who sought to conquer them. Over time, however, Excalibur and Clarent corrupted Mars, until he became violent and dangerous.
Without a second thought, Harry decided to buy the pen. Little did he know that this pen would change his life forever. As Harry held the pen in his hand, he felt a strange sensation coursing through his veins. It was as if a surge of power was flowing into him. Curiosity got the better of Harry as he decided to test the pen on a piece of paper. To his astonishment, as soon as he started writing with the pen, the words transformed into glowing, shimmering ink. The words seemed to come alive, dancing and swirling on the page. Excitement and wonder filled Harry's heart as he realized the true power of the magic pen. With each stroke, he could create incredible things. He could draw magical creatures, conjure spells, and even bring inanimate objects to life. Harry's room became a magical wonderland with his drawings and creations. He made friends with a talking bird, rode on the back of a winged horse, and even had conversations with trees. His imagination knew no bounds, and he was no longer confined to the ordinary world. But with great power came great responsibility. Harry soon realized that his magic pen had its limitations. The ink would fade and the creations would disappear after a certain period. He couldn't keep everything he created forever. However, Harry's experiences with the magic pen taught him important lessons about the value of creativity and imagination. He understood that magic didn't just lie in the pen; it resided within him. The pen was merely a tool that helped him express his thoughts and ideas. As Harry grew older, he continued to cherish the magic pen as a reminder of his childhood adventures. He used it sparingly, savoring each moment of wonder and joy it brought. He also shared his stories with others, inspiring them to embrace their own imaginations. The story of Harry and the magic pen teaches us that we all have the power to create magic in our lives. It doesn't require special tools or extraordinary abilities. All it takes is a belief in ourselves and the willingness to let our imaginations soar. And who knows, maybe one day, we might stumble upon our own version of the magic pen..
