As far as Irina knows, the Bowtruckle is a magical creature that protects trees. It is mostly active in certain forests in Western England, Southern Germany, and Scandinavia. It is a peaceful and extremely shy magical creature that feeds on insects.
Although the Bowtruckle seems harmless, if the tree it inhabits is threatened, it will leap and attack the lumberjack or tree expert trying to destroy its home. Its long, sharp fingers can puncture their eyes.
If a wizard dedicates themselves to the Bowtruckle, it would calm the creature for a long time, allowing the wizard to harvest wood from the tree and make a wand.
Yes, most of the trees the Bowtruckle inhabits are magical trees that can be used as wand materials.
In other words, the strange magical tree before Irina is probably a tree suitable for making a magical wand! This surprised Irina a little.
You see, when she was in Ollivanders' wand shop, Irina actually didn't get the most suitable wand for her. She tried almost every wand in the shop, but in the end, she had to settle for one that was just more suitable and allowed her to perform magic more fluently.
Mr. Ollivander felt guilty about this for a long time and promised to find Irina the perfect wand.
After all, in Mr. Ollivander's opinion, it was absolutely a failure on his part that his wand shop did not have the right wands for small wizards!
But now, with this unprecedented magical tree before her, Irina sees the hope of finally getting the wand best suited to her needs!
"Hello, beauties!"
Suppressing her excitement for the moment, Irina looked at the Bowtruckles. Her eyes lit up due to their cute and compact appearance.
In addition to snacks, Irina's hobbies include cute animals; otherwise, she wouldn't have raised so many hakimi at home in her previous life.
Now, seeing these adorable Bowtruckles, Irina felt her heart swell with tenderness.
At that moment, these Bowtruckles looked at Irina with some wariness. Though they felt a sense of familiarity with her, they couldn't help but want to approach her, but since she was a strange witch they had never seen before, they hesitated and resisted the urge to get closer.
Until... Irina pulled out an entire bottle of her favorite rhino snacks!
"Eat up, cuties!"
After signaling to her parents that it was okay to approach, Irina opened the bottles containing the rhino snacks and poured them on the ground in front of the Bowtruckles.
Irina had seen cute creatures like Bowtruckles in Hagrid's magical creatures books, and she knew their favorite food was land tortoises, so she always carried three or four bottles of tortoises with her in case of emergencies.
Unexpectedly, during this vacation trip, she encountered these adorable magical animals in the Scandinavian mountains!
Igor and Karolina watched curiously as the Bowtruckles no longer hesitated and began swirling around, hugging the worms on the ground and devouring them deliciously.
As the Bowtruckles enjoyed their tortoises, Irina was also introducing these magical creatures to her parents.
Just as Irina was happily showing them to her parents, a small Bowtruckle gently tugged at the white silk on Irina's calf with its little branch-like hands.
"Ah, is this for me? Thank you so much!"
Irina looked down and saw the Bowtruckle holding a branch taller than its body, trying to offer it to her.
Irina suddenly took the branch in surprise. This branch was a gift from the same Bowtruckle! It was definitely a material that could be used to make a wand!
In the magical world, Bowtruckles are the quality inspectors for wand materials! These charming Bowtruckles only offer wand-quality materials as gifts!
When Irina touched this branch, she could feel a slight coldness emanating from the branches, but this cold air didn't make her feel cold. Instead, it made her feel very comfortable.
This sensation convinced Irina that this was the wand most suited to her.
After putting the magical branches the Bowtruckle had given her away, Irina and her parents planned to leave the forest.
Although she loved these little creatures, she was not willing to disturb them. She simply treated the experience as a wonderful encounter in her life and tucked it away in her heart forever!
Irina thought this was the end.
But just as she was slowly retreating, the Bowtruckle that had presented her with a magical branch followed her with its short legs.
"What's going on?"
Irina knelt down and curiously looked at the Bowtruckle.
She saw this little one pointing at Irina, then at itself, taking two steps closer to Irina, and finally stretching out its hand to tug at the silk on Irina's calf.
"Do you mean... you want to come with me?"
Irina was a little surprised.
The Bowtruckle nodded vigorously, then jumped onto Irina's shoulders and rested happily on her head.
Feeling the small creature on her head, Irina couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Could it be that I'll have my own Bowtruckle companion, like Mr. Newt Scamander, the magical beast master?!
I remember that Mr. Newt Scamander's Bowtruckle was named Pickett, right?!
So, what should I name my Bowtruckle?
Irina gazed at the Bowtruckle on her shoulder, hesitating a little.
Compared to other Bowtruckles, this one seemed a bit shorter in stature but very delicate. There was a gleam in its bark-like skin, just like the strange magical tree.
At that moment, the Bowtruckle seemed eager to show its abilities to its new owner. It stretched its arms, and a piece of ice crystal formed before it.
"Is this... a mutated Bowtruckle?! Or is it because the bloodline has evolved due to the strange magical tree it grew on?!"
Seeing the Bowtruckle summon ice crystals, Irina was suddenly amazed.
No wonder this Bowtruckle decided to follow her. Besides her natural affinity for small animals, her strong connection to the ice element could also be a reason.
"In that case, I'll call you Envee!"
Irina said happily.
Although this was the West, Irina gave the Bowtruckle an Eastern name.
Perhaps Envee will become her inseparable companion!
Irina looked at the little creature on her shoulder, playing with a piece of ice crystal, and thought to herself.
