Cassandra

C ~ Cassandra Bach

The parents of Heidi, Lis & Tage are Sandra and Kai.
  Sandra, whose full name is Cassandra Patricia Bach, born Dunne, is a part time helper in the supermarket at Unicorn Island and also sometimes in the fair that visits the island during the summer holidays.
  Like her namesake, Cassandra, she suffers from bouts of premonition, but she is generally more listened to by her family and friends of magicl stock, she is of course best at Transformations and divination.
  Sandra is 33 when we first meet her, she has curly, prematurely grey hair, grey eyes and a stately bearing. She is confident in her magic, but fears that if it should be known that witches and wizards are real, once again a terrible backlash would happen and people would be burned at the stake - or more possibly be put into a mental ward and dosed.
 Sandra is a relaxed and smiling mother - when magic is not involved - patient with her magician husbond and their numerous more or less excentric relatives.
  Her cooking skills are extraordinarily good, and she worked in a restaurant as a chef in training when she met Kai. When they found out that Sandra was expecting twins - at the same time discovering their mutual secret; that they were both of ancient, magical descent - they moved to a far away island to be able to homeschool their children in the arcane arts.
  She wields a wand of yew, emitting sparks that are smoky grey and mysterious like the oracle in Delphi.

We first meet Sandra on the second morning of Susan's stay at The Unicorn Farm, where She opens the door to The Magician's House to let Susan in.
