But for a young witch named Lily, her ID card was causing nothing but trouble.
Lily had just turned 18, which meant that she was finally old enough to get her very own ID card. She was excited to join the ranks of the magical community, to show off her powers, and to explore all the wonders that the magical world had to offer.
But when she went to apply for her ID card, things didn't go quite as planned.
The ID card examiner, a grumpy old wizard named Harold, looked at Lily's application and frowned.
"Sorry, young lady," he said. "You're missing a crucial piece of information. You need to provide proof of your magical abilities."
Lily's heart sank. She had been practicing her spells for years, but she had never thought to record them or document them in any way.
Feeling defeated but also a little bit stubborn, Lily decided to take matters into her own hands. She would prove her magical abilities in the most dramatic way possible.
And so, she marched out of the ID card office and into the street. She lifted her wand and cast a spell.
To her surprise, nothing happened.
She tried again, with the same result. And again. And again.
Feeling embarrassed but also a little bit amused, Lily realized that her spells were just not working. She had no idea why, but her magic seemed to have deserted her at the worst possible moment.
As she walked down the street, feeling dejected and frustrated, she saw a sign for a magical pet store. Feeling a little bit desperate, she decided to go inside.
And that's when she saw it. A magical creature that was unlike anything she had ever seen before.
It was small, furry, and had bright green eyes that seemed to sparkle with magic. Lily felt a sudden surge of hope. Maybe this creature could help her prove her magical abilities.
She bought the creature and brought it back to the ID card office. She lifted it up and said, "Look! I made this creature with my magic."
To her surprise, Harold just looked at her with a mixture of confusion and amusement.
"That's not proof of your magical abilities," he said. "That's just a creature from the pet store."
Feeling defeated but also a little bit amused, Lily realized that she had been so focused on proving herself that she had lost sight of what was truly important.
Magic wasn't just about spells and potions. It was about wonder, imagination, and creativity. And even though she might not have been able to cast spells on command, she was still a part of the magical community.
As she walked out of the ID card office, holding her magical creature, she felt a sense of pride and joy. She might not have a traditional ID card, but she had something even better – a newfound sense of wonder and appreciation for the magic that surrounded her.
