In Feb 2008, while on her way home from a party Agnes gets mocked and as if they had always been there waiting for a chance to come out after years of hiding, her unfocused magical skills set in. She finds herself in a puddle on the ground, wet through but otherwise unharmed when her stolen items come flying around the corner, landing on the floor in front of her. Confused and shocked Agnes goes home not talking about this coincident to anyone. It takes her a couple of days to get over the fears that came with the realization of the happenings. The unexpected reappearance of her magical skills (or rather, instincts) bothered her to no end. Agnes has not thought of Hogwarts and this world that existed beside this one in almost 10 years.
So Agnes sets out to rediscover the Wizarding World. It takes her almost a year to first find her way back. Once she had managed to rediscover it, She started with the occasionally lunch break at Diagon Alley. Sometimes she'd shop, sometimes she'd chat. On other days, she walked around like a child in a candy store. Somehow she figured out how to subscribe to the Daily Prophet, where she found an advert for adult Magic classes at the MoM in early 2009.
Since then, things have picked up the pace. Once not even able to enter Diagon Alley without help and taking every possible embarassement and wizarding no-go with her in the process of finding her way back into the Wizarding World, Stella was now what people called a proper witch. In 2009 she dedicated her entire energy on her classes, evolving and developing her skills in almost every single evening class and workshop the Ministry of Magic had to offer. Her wand was handed back to her short before Christmas 2009, where she outstandingly passed all her exams. The exams, taken by adults who did not have the priviledge of graduating from one of the World's Wizarding Schools for whatever reason, are equivalent to N.E.W.T. exams.
It was then, with her wand in one hand and her diploma in the other, that Stella decided to quit her job as a Mechanical Engineer and apply for a position at the Ministry of Magic. Of course, the pay almost brought tears to her eyes. After working like a maniac in her field and getting one promotion after the other, proving her worth, her pay check had increased to very comfortable numbers. A new job in a new world meant starting from scratch.
Estelle started as an Intern at the newly created Muggle Affairs Office, Department of International Magical Cooperation, in February 2010. With the help of her Head, Dreogan Eleor, and his wife, she found her place within the MoM with a lot more ease than expected. Of course, Stella benefited from working in a Department that was only created to help people like her, supporting the development of the programs while at the same time taking part. She was the best example of how important their jobs were and how well integration could go. She was grateful for the possibilities now open to her, slowly working her way up to the paid position of Muggle Liaison Supervisor. Over the last year, the tiny witch has become an important member of the Department, her experience within the Muggle World hardly matched. Stella kept close ties to both the Department of Magical Law Enforcement and especially the Department of Magical Accidents and Catastrophes, helping out with her knowledge in Engineering, all things Muggle and rarely even Finnish.
