M h what what what? Gil? Gail? Are you? Are you
feeling okay? You look at that little I'm trying to need help with something.
Be helpful. It would surely be helpful. I I would like to
walk alongside Gail and I'd like to hold my hand out without my wand and
mimic the patterns that she's mimicking, walk at the same rate as she's walking,
and the things that she's saying. I want to say back to there,
that's doing there, that's doing there, that's doing uh castic spelling.
Armis on on Gail. Now I'm running, I think okay, I bear
hug Gail. You grab Gail and she screams at the top of her lungs.
It is a blood curdling scream, as if someone has just seen their
worst nightmare before them. Gail breaks free as you try and wrestle her away
from Alex. She breaks free, screaming like she has gone mad, and
rushes towards Alex. Alex, the wand is heading towards you, and you're
trying to avoid it, but yale scream makes you lose focus and you grab
the wand. Oh no, no, this isn't the one. This isn't
the one. This isn't the one. No no, no, no,
no no, this isn't the one. No no, no, no no,
please please you have to. If you don't find them, everything is
lost. Everything is lost, everything lost. The Prefects are yelling hold it
right there, and several of them are pointing wands at you, clem.
She's going after the the wand is cursed. She was going to hurt.
I would like to point my wand at the wand that Alex is holding and
cast wing Guardian Levosa on the wand I can't see her. I can't see
her at all. Maybe she want me to look. Yeah, we have
to find her, get a living and find her. But the head Mastress
is coming. I don't think I should leave you until that happens. It's
fine, I've I've got this. It's strong, but I've got this.
I just can't look away. Just please make sure everybody is okay. Gail's
wand gail her wand it was cursed and somebody is cursing people's wands and looking
for somebody somebody or some people who are in the hospital wing or all the
time. And head Mistress. There was also something else that was strange.
As I was flying here, I saw several students disperse sing from the courtyard.
What do you mean dispersing, mister Potter? Well, I don't know.
It seems strange to me. I was flying here and it must have
been twenty or so students. They seem to be rushing in all different directions.
Why would they be doing that dinner head on nin just started. I
don't know, but it seemed like there was more organic here. Go investigate,
mister Potter. Right, I'll check back in. I'll meet you back
at your office and I'll try and well, oh, I'll see if I
can find olive as well. Do that, please, mister Potter, make
that a priority, Yes, please? M hmm. Do you think it's
do you think it's calling trying to? They'll say it. And Gail,
she didn't dissolve this, she didn't, she didn't do anything wrong. She's
wrong. I think Gail is going to be okay, and all of it
is going to be okay, and we move forward with the knowledge that they're
going to be okay until until we know for sure if they're not. Students
will say three of them that are near the wall, probably just as the
reach of the womping willow. Hey, come away from the womping willow.
You could get hot. It's called the womping willow for a reason. Rose
raises her wand and says stupifie. And you see the second year wave the
wand in front of them, and the spell dissipates. Rose gasps, what,
I want to throw my perfect swelling solution potion into them. So you
throw the potion and what potion did you say this was? It's a perfect
swelling solution which swells on contact, So it's the perfect grenade potion. Potion
lands. I'm like the potion lands and it hits the womping willow and you
see one of the branches just start to get larger, and the little twigs
on the end of the branches start to get larger, and some of the
potion lands on the students and you can see them start to they start to
enlarge in size. It's not quite like the uh like the inflatus that happened
to Alex. This is the swelling postes. It causes enlargement, so you
can see their robes start to grow overly big, and they just start to
overgrow on top of the students and they get sort of all entangled up in
their robes, and suddenly the womping willows branch smacks both of these students.
The third one manages to avoid it, and as they do, you can
see something strange happening. It was your one, it was someone does something.
It's okay, okay, oh it wasn't you. It's not You'll fall.
She sobs some more, and Nanny Bucklin looks at you. Come on,
DearS, I need to get her to the hospital wing. Maybe Madam
Pumps he can do something. M hey, let's go. Good job,
Mazy. You cast flipendo as this dog like creature leaps from the shadows out
from underneath the tree, Rosie, what does this look like? Well,
Rosie's having a great day, So what it looks like is not only in
one arm. Is she pulling clim away from the tree like an absolute fireman.
She's also laying on the ground, pointing up towards the creature that's about
to pounce on them, And she's like, yeah, okay, why not,
And then she just says, well, I think I saw the professor's
doing something similar when they were securing the school before the school years started.
I think those are the wards. There is a strange sound from inside the
hospital wing. You've heard it before, amazing, it's the sound of someone
operating. So we join our group, specifically Alexander Pippen in the hospital wing
as Alex, I would assume you're maybe with Gail, Is that correct?
Yeah? Yeah, keeping an eye on her, okay, So Alex keeping
an eye on Gail. Mazie has sort of wandered off a little bit.
Gail's still sort of talking to herself. As you are talking with Gail,
Gail is sort of crying quietly. It's like it's over. It's it's over
now at least three we got the wand and if you know what's happening,
so so, so it's okay, you just well if you need to cry,
then you can cry. That's okay. But but but it's but it's
it's done now, it doesn't The wand can't get you anymore, the cars
can't. So did I hurt anyone? No? I don't think so,
not that I know of. I could still here. Yeah. Still you
know the whispers were they do you mean you're remembering them? Or are they
telling you to get the wand back? Are they seeing something? Alex Alex,
Oh, yeah, something strange outside inside, outside, there's some lights.
Okay, I'll look. I have my binoculars. As Maizie says this,
suddenly you hear a noise and you were reminded of when you have seen
your father or your grand aparate. For in front of Mazie you see a
dark robed figure, and for the briefest of moments you swear you saw them
wearing a mask. The mask was strange. It was reminiscent of something.
Roll me, he noticed something eleven. Okay, hm, what did it
look like? The mask looked like an animal, the face of an animal.
It had features similar two mm hmmm. I would say you would think
probably some kind of wolf. Hm hmm. Okay. Can I use my
how do we get out of here? Question to be how do I get
amazing? Evitive? There? Look away from the person. She's maybe ten
to fifteen feet away from you. She walked away to look out a window.
I would say your only real option would be to perhaps use a spell
or rush over there and grab her and run. But that's maybe not quick
enough. In fact, it is not you hear behind the mask. This
is not her. What she'll do for now? No way as you do.
Try to cast a spell, and Mazie draws her wand she is grabbed
and operates away. Madame Pomfrey yells, what is going on. It's probably
the loudest that you've ever heard Madame Pomfrey speak. She approaches with wand drawn.
What happened? Gail is covering her ears and sort of shaking in bed.
Someone operated and and then Mazy this is impossible to wards. I know,
but it happens. I I I it happened to in front of me.
I didn't stop it. That's under your foot. You must contact this
mistress. And she begins to cast a spell and holds the wand up to
her to her neck, and you can see the similar spell that had Mistress
McGonagall cast. I never there's something that's happened in the hospital and a student
has been taken. Miss Guya has been taken from the hospital. And she
sort of flings the spell outward towards the wall. Yeah, and she says,
it's not fault. See if anyone else is hurt, check outside.
Please draw your wund have it ready in case anything comes back. Do you
know how to cast a shield? John? Yeah, Yeah, we learned
it. We learned it. Please be ready. And you see, uh,
you see Madame Pomfrey hike up or skirt a little bit, and from
a little uh like a little pouch that she keeps on her side, she
pulls out a little potion and and I think you see the barest hint of
the writing on the potion, and you recognize the writing as rosies and it
says Vita mix potion. Madame Pomprey chugs this and she starts moving faster than
you've ever seen her before. She rushes outside and leaves you in the hospital
wing with Gail all alone. What's going through your head right now, Alex?
I grab my binoculars and I look at the window where Maasy was looking
and see if I can see anything or anyone noticed something? Please? Anyone
or anything sneaking around? Yes, definitely No. What did it look like
some of the students that you've seen leaving the Great Hall earlier? You also
see you also see Olive outside. She's hiding behind and outcropping just outside the
window way down, trying to go mm hm, Do I recognize any of
the students by name? May do any read about that? I don't think
you'd have to roll. You do recognize several of the students. They are
from different years at the school. Some of them are raven Clause, some
of them are older, and you recognize probably some of the older raven Claw
students. There's a sixth year down there, Cornelius Kraft. There's a fifth
year down there, Rebecca Rivers. A few of the other students who recognize
as well. I don't know if you can remember their names really, but
from all different houses. Okay, and we head down to join Olive.
Olive, you've been following these students since the Great Hall and they've been doing
strange things wandering around. There's been several of them. There's maybe twenty students
that separated from the courtyard and starting started heading in all different directions around the
school. You followed a small group of them, maybe five, one of
the larger groups that split off, and from what you can tell, they
just brought down the wards around Hogwarts. What do you do, oh,
gosh, I would like to bosh. I would like to notice something.
Mm hmm. Okay, on A four. It is just about dark now.
Night time has just fallen, and I think it's difficult to see exactly
what's happening. You saw the magic being cast, and your gut maybe told
you that the wars around the school were coming down. But these students are
now beginning to spread out and separate. Beyond that, you can't seem to
read exactly what's happening. Okay, I'm oh, gosh, are they are
they still moving away? Well? They cast this, they cast the spell
or whatever, which, by the way, must have been very advanced magic.
And they were all of different ages. You saw students that should not
have anywhere close to this much magical knowledge, asked very complicated spells. What
direction does it look like they're headed? Are they totally scattering randomly or hmmm,
they are heading I'll tell you which way they are going. So the
hospital waying it. Let's bring you over here. The hospital wing is by
the clock tower there, the west wing. The students have spread out year,
probably on the eastern side there right by that text that says the west
wing, and the students would have been right near the base of the clock
tower. You can see there's five of them. One of them is heading
towards the covered bridge, one of them is headed towards the castle. One
of them is probably headed nearby you and one of them, actually two of
them are sort of heading around the base towards the western side of the clock
tower. Okay, how far away is the one that's heading towards me?
It's like, how close are they getting to me? Twenty feet? Okay,
I am going to point my wand towards them and cast the Fumos spell.
Okay, pointing your wand towards them, you begin to cast the Fumos
spell. Oh, give it a try, please, Oh, plus your
magic if I it's in my spell bank. If I click it from the
spell bank, it automatically adds the plus one. Right, it will add
the plus one for your spell bank. Oh yes, okay, on a
seven, it is a partial success. These choose two things that go wrong
from the list. I think it would be that someone or something is alerted
to the casting of the spell. Okay, And I think it would be
different than what she was expecting to. It's supposed to be a defensive smoke
screen that hinders visibility, and I think maybe instead of it like perfectly blocking
that student's vision, it's to what's the word like opaque, Like they can
still kind of see through it. If anything, it's more of a distraction
to them than it is like defensive blocking a vision. Yeah, it's not
completely opaque basically, or it's not even really missed like it seems like it
is patches here and there. As the FuMO spell is brought forth, we
can see this sort of vague smoke start to spread out from your wand there
is probably a sound as your spell is cast, and you can see that
the student that was nearby looks over towards you, sharply drawing their wands and
they begin to cast a spell. This student must be younger than you,
Olive. They cast a spell without an incantation pointed towards you. Alexander,
you see this out the window. Time to see if I've got the omph
I cast stupefy. Okay, it's a minus one for the distance h plus
whatever benefits you may have. Okay, so it's the second Yes, so
it's just as it will forward then an eleven. How does this happen,
Alexander, Well, I read the book during the summer, But magical development
and spells of a long distances and stuff, and it's more about focusing the
channeling properly and getting that right. So As I see this happening, I
panic for a moment, but then I take a breath and I focus.
I guess stupify with a straight arm, make sure I'm directing it straight down,
and you see the radio energy go straight down and hit them square in
the chest. The spell connects solidly. Olive. You're taken aback by a
moment as you see the student come in contact with the spell from seemingly nowhere
fly backwards, landing on the ground. I would like to very very quickly
run over and not with my bare hand, but like with the sleeve of
my robes kind of like she kind of like pulls her hand into it so
her robe is covering and pick up their wand okay, you pick up their
wand with your sleeves, basically keeping the wand away from your skin. Alex
you might be able to see Alive sort of rush up there. I don't
know if you can make out the details without your binoculars, but you can
see Alive sort of rush over to the to the down student. All laugh,
all laugh. Alexander tries to whisper scream towards you, which we know
does not actually work, but he tries in vain anyway, all the olive.
Why don't you go ahead and try and notice something, Okay, maybe
looking around to see the source of this incident. You look around wildly,
and you can see some light coming from up where the hospital wing is,
and you can see somebody sort of waving vaguely up there. H Okay,
careful, okay, ollif doesn't make any noise, she just cranes her neck
upward and does that, I just hold my wand out. I'll hold covering
fire over olive. Okay. Meanwhile, Clem Rosie, you are currently making
your way to the hospital wing. Clem is in bad shape. You think
that maybe she's broken a rib? Okay, Clym, I think we need
to go to the hospital wing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, please can
you walk? Uh? Can you help? Yeah? Of course I can.
What do you mean? What am I gonna just just mean? No?
Doing yourself? Actually, I'm leaving. I just kidding. Don't make
me laugh though, Okay, sorry, math Oh lizard, math Oh.
You and Clem are sort of trying to help each other along. Rose is
doing her best to uh cater to the three students that were doing this stuff
outside, and she's trying to tend to them and bring them along as best
as she can. She's using some spells to help, but she's obviously not
doing it perfectly. She's just trying her best. So she's fallen a bit
behind. And she would yell to you basically like, be careful on your
way to the hospital Wing. I'll be that soon. I just I can't
go that fast with with all three of them. Okay, stay away from
the big tree and the hole in the monster. Which way are you going
to the hospital wing? You were out that we have to specify. Yeah,
me, neither. I'm sure it's fine. I'm not sure it's fine.
So did you see the ruler tool with the circle around it? You
can just kind of tell me you were over by the womping willow. You
know which where are you going? Hmmm? Good question? Where is the
hospital Wing? Is right by the clock tower? Okay, okay, probably
that's way. Yeah, over the suspension bridge through the quad Okay, alrighty.
So going through the courtyard as you are basically hobbling along with Clement Tow,
you can see several students and there is a dark robed figure with a
mask on. Is he like near the students is he like far from the
students. Students appear to be following this person. Oh six six six,
that sounds fun. Okay. I can't really get much from their shape.
They have very amorphous looking robes. Are they masked? They're in the courtyard,
oh, the middle courtyard? Cool? Uh? What are the chances
we can just sneak by them? I can't tell you that that would be
a role. The chances are one in thirteen. Okay, I'm gonna intend
to sneak by them. Okay, I mean I guess I'm gonna also attempt
to sneak by that. I don't so Clem is not doing well. Trying
to sneak with Clem is more difficult in this case. Normally I would have
you roll your relationship with Clem. But I'm going to say this is a
minus one because Clem is not doing great and this is going to be inquiral.
Okay, unless you have something else you want to do. Well,
what if we fell in line with the other students and pretended like it was
normal, Like what if I just like was walking with Clem and we just
started walking with the students behind the cloaked figure. Sure you can try and
convince this is still a minus one, though Clem's current condition, it would
be kind of hard for her to fake it. Okay a second, hold
on, do I get Oh no, that's soul, not hard. Dang
it. Okay okay, okay, okay, okay okay. An eight.
I have to choose how this does not really go perfectly that is a partial
success. Choose one from the convinced list. I think that I like,
look at I like look at Clem, and I'm like, because I can't
say anything, because if if we talk, then I think that this weird
person will hear us. So I think that I sort of like push Clym
behind me so that I can help her walk. But she's like, we're
walking in a line like the other people. So I think I assume this
person like looks back and does like one of the sneaky eye things where they're
like, I'm not so sure about that, So they go along with it
for now. Very well, you're being dragged along by Rosie following behind,
with several students probably numbering maybe let's say six students right about now, plus
this masked figure. This masked figure, by the way, you haven't really
gotten a good look from the front to see what kind of mask is there.
You just know that they are wearing some sort of mask pretty much all
dark robes, all dark clothing, very hard to make them out. In
general. They are obviously prepared for whatever this is that's happening at the moment.
And you follow. The students say nothing the entire time, and they
are moving quietly as they follow this person. They're heading towards out of the
courtyard around the Transfiguration corridor, heading four the stairs in the Dark Tower.
The students and this person begin to walk up the dark Tower. You continue
to follow. Is the person leading like the are the dark Tower stairs like
a spiraling staircase up to the top of the Dark Tower. I would like
to wait until the person leading the students is away far enough up the dark
tower and the students are there out of sight, until we just very like
we just like walk like continue walking away from the Dark Tower. But I
want to stay. I want to stay walking like we're part of the group.
I just don't continue up the staircase with clym. Okay, you begin
to walk maybe a few steps into the tower unimpeded. This person continues to
move. You start to slow down, letting the rest of the students continue
their walk as you do. So you hear everyone stop simultaneously, as if
all of the footprints, all of the sounds of the footsteps stop and you
hear something is wrong. Two of you. We're not moving as you should.
Who are you? Why are you following? Oh? We were just
aheaded to dinner. I was just why I thought this was the way that
is this not the way to dinner? Grab them immediately? Oh? Can
I cast a spell before they grab? Yeah? You can try. Okay,
I would like to try to cast the badgering spell at the Can I
see the person at charger? He can't see me, but he's still thinks
that I'm there. I'm not gonna say mm. You don't have a clear
view of them, any of them. No, the students you can see,
okay, okay, but I don't know if I can see the other
guy that they can't see this person I was just speaking. Yeah, okay,
Well, then I'm gonna cast badgering at the closest students trying to grab
us. Okay, try and cast a spell. Clem, what are you
doing? I'm not doing so hot as we all know, Uh. And
my brain's my mind's not all there at the moment. I'm not feeling it
very sharp. So if anyone comes to grab me, I am punching them.
I have forgotten that I can do magic. I'm not I'm going physical
attacks. Yeah, rosie scraping. You cast the spell, your badgering spell.
The student coming down is older, probably has to be a sixth or
seventh year. Uh. And you cast the spell. You can see them
raising their wand up, but you catch them off guard, and you see
them start to turn into a badger in front of you. Two of the
other students begin pointing their wands. Clem, you rush at the closest one.
Go ahead and struggle. Please. Yeah it's not smart, but here
we are. Come. Are you injured? A seven? Okay, that
will cost you a little bit. You struggle against someone or something taking damage.
Choose one from the struggle list. Shrug off the damage, take something
from them, surprise them, or frighten them. I'm gonna go for frighten
them. I think I just start like, I let out a guttural scream
because I'm in so much pain and people are attacking me for the I don't
know how many at the time today, and so I just like, ah,
and I just run forward and deck them. Okay. Clem goes in.
Clem casts punch and she yeah, she totally. You hit this person.
I think there may be like a fourth year or something, Clem,
and you punch them right in the face. They recoil and sort of stumble
and fall like against the wall basically next to the stairs. And they are
obviously affected by this. And you can hear in the tower up the tower.
Very well, all of you, please subdue these two. We're bringing
them with us. Do we run? Yeah? Yeah, I would like
to go ahead and try and be quick and quiet both of you. And
this is not with my relationship with Clem. That depends uh huh oh on
what are you trying to help? Clem? Yeah, always mm, you
have a minus one. Unfortunately, well I'm not gonna leave her, so
I'd rather have the minus one, I guess. Oh oh no. You
stumble both of you as you try to run out of the dark tower.
Your ankles are grabbed by the students. The one that was turned into a
badger has transformed back, and the student that you did not hit, Plem
has grabbed you. Probably by the robes, and you can hear it down.
You can hear footprints making footsteps making their way down the stairs back towards
you, as more students and this figure begin to subdue you. Ah,
so it appears that we did have some students interfering. That is unfortunate.
I'm sure the council will know what to do. Sure's not as unfortunate as
you're steaky out to your bad hat. Silence them. Did you just tell
her silence? Oh, you made a mistake, buddy, you made a
mistake. Students begin casting spells and you cannot seem to get words to come
out of your mouth. The figure, the figure has made their way down
the stairs enough for you to see the mask. They're wearing the mask of
a praying mantis, all in black, and we switch scenes. Alex h
Madame Pomfrey comes rushing back into the hospital wing with head Mistress McGonagall. As
I said, Minerva's here and the students has taken it. Miss miss Schuyler,
Skuyler, where is she? Did you see anything but the Okay?
First off, all of his is is down there, and there's a student
that I zapped. I superfied from here, there was one of the bad
students doing bad things outside, just just down there. My headmistress McGonagall rushes
over to the window and she begins to look outside frantically. What is going
on in this school? I don't know. I saw, I saw some
of the students. I recognized Cornelia's craft and and Rebecca revers from raving claw,
well, that's word. And I don't know who that one is just
there that I sipified, But they were trying to cast at all of looks
down and you can see her close her eyes. She begins to cast a
spell, and this spell actually requires her to sort of You can see her
lips moving quickly. She's doing some sort of long incantation with her eyes closed,
knowing this must require a lot of focus and determination. You see her
steel herself and as she does so, emerging from the tip of her wand
you can see magic in rhythmic wave like pulses begin to emanate and travel down
the wall all along the wall of the school, heading down down the wall
towards Olive and emerging from these waves, you can see several ethereal looking cats
and you think at the end of the incantation, you hear had Mistress macgonagall
say, drown a smirksima, and the cats begin to travel all along the
grass of the school, spreading out ten, twelve, fifteen cats in their
ethereal shapes begin to move a long the grounds of the school. Olive.
You can see this all around you. You see these ethereal patronus cats begin
sort of rushing through the grass. One travels close to you, and the
cat looks up at you, staring. It puts its paw on your robe
and turns. It runs a few paces and looks back at you. Oh,
I'm following that cat. Following the cat. It begins to rush off
all the cat is rushing towards the stairs over here, just near the clock
tower. And you follow this cat towards the stairs, Alexander had Mistress McGonagall
sort of opens her eyes. She wobbles a little bit, and she says,
follow me, mister pippertten I med him, Pumphrey, met him,
Pumphrey, Watch after girl. Okay, ahead, Mistress. The person who
operated it, it took me easy. They had a mask on. It
was a black kind of like a wolf, and they said this isn't the
one, but she'll do for now before the apperoded out. Not enough time
to analyze, mister Pippin, But thank you for the information. We're going
to collect, miss a Glade. Okay, here is Aura Potter rushing down
the stairs from the hospital wing. You see olive at the top of the
staircase waiting you. Okay, what's going on? There are invaders in the
school. The wards have been brought down. I stole one of the ones.
I don't know if that's helpful, but if you need it, did
you touch it? No? I picked it up with my robe. Very
well, good thinking and head Mistress gonegle quickly points her wand at a scrap
of her robes and you can see tear off and begin to form itself into
a bag of sorts, a sort of long bag, and she says,
miss every grade. She points her wand towards you the wand please right away,
and she's gonna still like holding it with her cloak, just kind of
she points, and you can see her mutter something as the wand begins to
float over and head into the bag. It sort of ties itself with a
bow and stashes itself in her rose and she says, come with me,
okay, I have seen several things throughout the school. I've seen more students
moving around as well as some of these invaders. I didn't see a mask
before they were able to have right away, mister Pippin, But I will
believe what you have said. You said this was a wolf mask. Did
you see any others? No? I haven't seen anyone else, but he
said that this isn't the one, but will do for now. When you
took Mazie like this isn't who's looking for someone specifically? It's like when I
held the girls want before it said no, we have to find them.
Are all be worthless? They're looking for one person in particular, I think,
or some people like specific people for some reason. Hmmm, yes,
I want you with me mascifically. Some of your friends have speculated that they
may be looking for you. I hope this is not the case, but
I I'm not sure. It's again, all of them here, I got
you. What are we supposed to do? We will defend this school and
I will defend my students, and then we'll get me. That is right,
mister Pippen. You can be sure of that. Now we must head
to the main entrance. Hall. There is a place where we can potentially
restore the wards, at least for a time. It won't be the full
protection the school is able to offer. However, it will in fact be
at least some protection. A Mistress Mcgonah begins to mutter under her breath,
casting another incantation, and she flicks it out towards the wall, and you
can see those familiar lines of magic begin to make their way, sort of
like rivulets, running along the wall and through the wall. And she says,
prefects, please beware. The school is in fact under attack of some
sort. I need all of the teachers and the prefects to please be on
the defensive. I have not seen or a potter since we made a connection
inside the Great Hall. The other auras are nowhere to be seen. I'm
not sure what is happening, but I am sure for one thing, that
there is some sort of invasion happening. Be on the lookout for anyone wearing
black masks, supposedly like a wolf. Anyone wearing a mask, please be
on your guard, protect the students. Go into the most secure locations with
any students around, and barricade yourselves. I want you all to prepare defensive
wards, protect your students, protect your fellow classmates, and if you hear
anything strange, please wait for my signal. Marching forward, you rush towards
the entrance hall. Arriving at the entrance hall, you see three figures black
robes wearing black masks. Old your warned, mister pippin defensive skills. Only
the same goes for you. Missive lead, protect yourself as necessary, but
do not provoke them. Do you understand? If you have the opportunity,
please get to a safe location. Okay, who are you to invade Hogwarts?
What do you want here? Had mistress McGonagall. Apology for the interruption.
Apologies for the interruption. More than apologies will be required here. Who
are you and what are you doing in my school? Another of the masked
robed figures, steps Forward or Potter, has been taken, along with several
of your students. The orers that protect this place are of no consequence to
us. We are part of the council Council of what you hold no sway
in the witchcraft and wizard world. Who are you really? Is that you
behind the mask moot? Turn yourselves over to the proper authorities. Leave my
students alone, one of the figures takes off their mask. This mask is
that of a fox. Removing the mask, you see the face of Colin
moot. I suppose it wasn't much of a surprise. What are you doing
here, Moot? I'm not about to tell you what our plans are.
However, I thought I would offer you a bit of friendly advice. Aadmistress
magic is dying admistress. We only seek to save that which you hold dear.
Unfortunately, to do that it is quite difficult. For the first time,
you notice something strange about Moot's face, it's not exactly the same as
when you last saw him. You can see that there are there's something different,
which one of you would like to try to notice something? Well,
Dad nine nine, Yeah, what it look like? I guess you think
there are ruins on Colin Moote's face. Alex, he has ruins on his
face? Can I see? Can I roll to see if I recognize any
of them? You can try and I read about that role. Okay,
you can roll your relationship with Alex since he just helped you. Thanks buddy.
That's twelve. I'm gonna ask three questions from the list. There,
Uh, what does it do? Okay, so I'm going to answer this
in a more general way because there are several runs on his face. These
ruins seem to have to do with speech. That's the gist of it that
you can get, at least from this quick viewing. I want to ask
where is it from? And I guess what I mean within this context,
if it's something that I would be able to just discern, is did he
do these to himself? Or does it look like somebody put them on him?
It would be very difficult for him to do by himself. They are
burned into his flash. They sort of look like scars or burn marks.
I guess last question I would say is who do I know that's related to
it? Or do I know anyone that's related to it? Mmm. I
think the way that I'll answer this is an is I will say that in
your study of ancient runs class, you got this information that well that these
would be runes related to speech in some way. I'll go into it a
little bit more. These runes seem to form a spell of sorts continues to
speak. Unfortunately, this isn't all that we'll have to do, sad Mistress
McGonagall I apologize for any disruption that we will. What are you talking about,
Moot disruption? This is more than a disruption, This is a breach
of the school's defenses, of the school safety. What is wrong with you?
Why would you do this to these children? As I said, had
Mistress McGonagall, this is done for all of our sakes. Please don't fight.
I wouldn't want anything to happen to your students. And as he says
this, you can see Clem and Rosie struggling against several other students as they
are brought through the main entrance just in range of your vision. What are
you doing with him? Let them go? I will, I will let
them go if you let us leave. As I said, we don't want
to fight. That is not our goal. You can hear Headmistress McGonagall breathing
heavily next to you, Olive Alexander Flem. You can see Moot's face now
as you come interview. You're still under the effects of this silencing spell.
Can I try to struggle out of being held like, try to go for
him? You can, please try to struggle, Clem plam you try to
struggle against the students, but it feels hopeless, a vice like grip on
your arms. Your arms are pinned behind your back, roughly painfully. What
about some of the other students. I heard that you took someone from the
hospital wing. Yes, they will be returned to you, assuming we are
allowed to leave. Let the students go, and you will be allowed to
leave. One of the other dark robed figures with the mask speaks up,
very well, let them go. It is the praying mantis masked individual,
clam Rosie. You're brought forward and let go. Upon doing so, Moot
reapplies his mask. They step backwards away from you. I have control of
my hands again. Yes, I would like to give Calumot the finger as
I walk towards my friends. Please, you are let go. They begin
to walk away. The fox masked Moot looks up at you, Olive and
says, Olive, you trained spa well. Three of them disaparate. The
students that were left behind, Oh, start to stumble, holding their heads
and they look a bit stunned. What's going on? What happened? Oh?
My head? What's going on? Ed? Mistress? Is the real?
All right? Clem's hurt? Can I talk again? I'm good?
Now you can the silent spell is gone, and Mistress McGonagall makes her way
over towards you, clem Miss Gooseanders, are you all right? Shouldn't have
let them leave, but they didn't have a choice. Miss Goosanders, she
pass your shoulder. What about mister Floffer Potter, Potter, We'll have to
find out what else is happening? Please? Where's Mazie? They said that
they would release her, but she was taken. But she's not here.
How do we know that they'll keep their word? Don't they just left?
We don't miss school senders, but I couldn't risk my students getting hurt.
You need to go start bike. I'm like booking it down the hall to
like search, but I'm also in pain, and you can probably see that.
I'm like not doing hot, but I'm like schools. I'm gonna I'm
following clip clip clip clip. You can make an angry accent, just be
careful with your rip. I don't care they have Mazy. They obviously just
leveraged us because we were right in front that they're not going to keep their
promise. They're not going to give her back. Mcdonag said they had to
release all the students out do we know they still have mazy. Of course
they would say that they will, but they won't. Of course they won't.
I think they're liars, of course they do. I'm glad I gave
them the adult finger. I think they deserve it. Yeah, that was
good. Where do you think? What are we looking for? I'm going
to try and see if I can find like a window to see if I
can see them going anywhere, or a trace or anything. You are near
the entrance hall, I mean you're right there. Yeah, I'd like to
go outside and uh, outside the entrance, I guess, and look around
and see, okay, notice something or yeah, investigate I'm not sure.
Investigate. Oh man, I'm you're hurt. Just sort of looking around too
quickly as painful, Rosie. You can see Clem struggling. She's making little
grunts of pain unintentionally, okay, and in any movement that she makes,
nearly breaking a rib is awful. I think you should slow down, Clem,
doesn't matter. I think that we'll be more useful if you're healed.
Are only useful if there's time. Well, and let's get the hospital because
we gotta put that bone grow on real fast. God damn it. It's
gonna be okay. We just gotta stick together and we'll figure it out.
We always figure it out. It'll be fine. It's gonna be it's gonna
be fine. I'm gonna push past Rosie and just be like, Pumphrey better
get that bone grow real fast. I'm just gonna walk behind her like watching
her and be like really angry over bone grow. You return back to the
rest of the group and Mistress McGonagall begins to escort you to the hospital lane.
She she's been communicating or trying to communicate with the rest of the professors
and the prefects. As you're making your way back to the hospital wing,
there's a few students that are also making their way there as well, and
you can see one of the professors is being helped to the hospital wing.
I want a role please from one of you. This is gonna be one.
Let's see one, two, three to do this? Uh okay,
sorphies great nine, ten, twemm end me a D twenty. Which one
of you would like to make this role? I'll do it? Okay,
okay, wow, okay, what does the wow mean? It's just an
amazing coincidence. Professor Astbucks olive. This is your study of ancient rooms.
Teacher looks like they are injured. As you are getting to the hospital wing,
you can see several other students helping bring them. Head Mistress McGonagall speaks
with them, checks with the students, and that's a good place for us
to go to our break. It's a lot for the frosts. We're gonna
take a little bit of a break here, folks. If you have not
done so, please make sure you're following all of these wonderful people. You
can head on over to Tablestory, dot TV, Slash and WAW to follow
them in all of the places, and you can download the system for free.
Download it, check it out, come and play. It's a great
time. It's a great time. Check it out. And if you're looking
for a group, you can head on over to the discord and there's lots
of people that are looking for groups to play this game and other and other
games. So come come join us a table story, dot TV, Slashed,
Discord, Come hang out and guess what we have a return to a
show that happened last year coming up. That's right, Season two of Leech
is starting up this weekend. It's happening already. So if you like things
a little bit more intense and serious and dark and vampire like, starting this
weekend, this Sunday, make sure to check it out. We're gonna take
a little bit of a break. We'll be back in just a few minutes
in tight for more witchcraft and wizardry. Back in just a little bit.
With the group rejoining each other and heading towards the hospital wing, we see
the Olive seems to be a bit shook up. I've just got one arm
around all of his shoulders and just kind of gating her along with the grip
to the hospital wing. I'm still clutching my wand in my other hand.
Her eyes are kind of unfocused, like you can tell she's not looking at
anything, and her footsteps are a little almost like plotting, like she's only
moving her feet because Alex is moving and she's aware she has stiff walk,
but she seems pretty zoned out. I am, your hair looks great now.
Uh oh, well, I'll be okay, Olive, We've got we've
got your back. We're ready. Well, I'll help well, I mean
you will get maybe backs in and then we'll be together again, and then
we can we can tackle everything and we'll all look after gets. You're just
focusing on one for in front of the other for now, and I know
this is hard all of us, so I'll do my best to help for
now. He has my hippogriff, he has my mazy. We'll we'll give
them both back. They promise, will make sure of him. As you
begin to approach the hospital wing, you can see them more students are here.
It's fairly full. The head mistress just sort of says, all right,
everyone, he's just we'll get claim looked after. Please look after yourselves.
I will inquire to see if miss Skuyla has indeed been returned. I'll
speak to the rest of the professors, excuse me, and the minister.
She'll help rest assured. The minister from magic will be notified. Okay,
all right, we'll lockdown the hospital waiting for now. Then had a Pumfrey,
had a Pumfrey had Mistress McGonagall sort of rushes off. I am.
I gaed all of to one of the cozy chairs and let me get you
some water. And I run off and get a cup of water and bring
it over and just take little steps and try and think about breathing, I
think or something, and I'll do the same, but I'll walk around and
look for I don't know clues, sir, cause you just all if you
need me m hm. So I'm gonna start of patrolling the hospital or what
about the three of you. You're sort of sat down. The hospital wing
is fairly full. You can see that, Ancient Rooms teacher, because we're
brought over to one of the beds. I'm fuming personally, like I'm sitting
there kind of waiting to uh, waiting for someone to come over and help
me out. But I'm like very angry. So I don't know if I'm
looking at anyone or saying anything. I'm just kind of like looking at the
floor. I just want to be guarding Clem's bed because I just I think
Rosie's so concerned Clinn's gonna get up and do something irrational with a broken rib
that Rosie's just like, I just look like I'm hanging out, but I
am guarding you. She better let us go after her, and she doesn't,
We'll just go after her anyways. That's what we always do, and
we better not get in trouble for it either. You don't really ever get
broken, like for real, for real, like we just get in like
a little bit of trouble and then she's like and thank you for doing that,
So like it was gonna be fine. It's gonna be fun. Let's
practice our breathing again. Clip. Did you see what kind of monster was
outside? No? I didn't really catch a good glimpse of it. I
was okay, I didn't. I just didn't know what it was and I
didn't know if like maybe you had a different angle. Did you get a
good look at it? What did it it had for? I think?
I mean I hit it. Probably I hit it, okay, fur and
teeth and you hit it. Yeah. I can't really narrow that down.
Oh yeah, I got good. I really have nothing. I was kind
of in panic mode. Yeah that's fair. Yeah. I also can't remember
when I carried you. Yeah, I do just great. Do you want
to feel my muscles? Sure? Yep? Is this working? I'm trying
to distract you. Are you? Are you flexing right now? Yeah?
Like as hard as possible? Oh, you can like feel you know when
kids shake like they flex so hard they're like speaking yeah kids, Yeah,
when kids do that? Yeah, definitely, when kids do that an adult's
name Merkles. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm flexing really hard. Yeah
it's good. Good muscles good yeah, uh yep, good body carrying muscles.
I guess thanks. Are you okay? Yeah, I know I'm fine.
I think I'm running off adrenaline, like yeah, I'm just yeah,
I'm good. I haven't had a I haven't had a carbon like, I
don't know, two and a half hours. It's a long time. It's
a really long time. I think she's just starts staring into the middle distance.
Oh hey, yeah, who's that professor over there? I catch a
look and see it's the Runes professor, right, yeah, Rosie, I
think, But I know, I just didn't know if I would know him
because I'm not taking runs. Well, yeah, she you do know her
because she's the hufflepuff head of house. Do I know that she teaches runes
or you know what? Hold on, let me just tell them. I
know she's hufflepuff head of house, but I probably don't know what class she
teaches. She's I know she's at a house climba. Do you know what
she's teaching because I'm not taking it. She teaches ancient ruins? Do you
think she knows like I was on that dude's face. Rune head. I
don't know. Maybe that's a sick nickname. That's a good insult. That
was nice. Did you see me punch that guy? Yeah? Yeah,
did you see me turn and drew a badger? Yeah? You did a
really good job. That was a great job. Yeah, and then you
both care our adult an adult non wizard in swears. Yeah, I'm surprised
Professor McGonagall didn't hear that. Yeah, it's true. My dads are gonna
be so disappointed in me. I'm never supposed to use that finger. I
think your dads would completely understand and probably do it themselves, to be honest.
It's kind of where I'm at right now. That may be true.
I think my dad built me out of school if they knew about what was
happening. Yeah, I mean maybe they should, to be honest. No,
no, who's gonna finish this? We have to do it. They
took mister mister flocker. Yeah, I mean, we can take care of
it ourselves. But you know, maybe next year I should be homeschooled.
What are they going to teach you magic? They definitely can't. Maybe the
magic of cooking and love. My grand will teach me the magic of avoiding
my existence and not remembering what she had for breakfast, So that'll be great.
I can't ever remember what I had for breakfast either. Maybe me and
your gran are kind of similar, but I've never avoided your existence, that's
true. Thanks for that. Yeah, why would I do that? Uh?
Do do do Alex? Or all of take ancient rooms? Yeah?
All all of does? All in the room, right, She's just like
having a meltdown. Alex does too. Uh yeah, I think she's sitting
on a chair, Alex, where are you in this seeing me? I'm
wandering around the perimeter of the hospital, looking under the windows, cells and
stuff for ruins and thanks. Yeah, I'm gonna like pat come on a
bed and be like beer right back, and I'm just gonna like fall into
step with Alex. Hey, Okay, Hi, Hello, I'm gonna put
my arm around you. Okay, you're right. I am just ignoring that
question and said myself and moving until I have to face it. Mm hmmmmm.
Probably not healthy, but I agree, I think that's probably for the
best. Right now, I have a question. I have what do people
here get tattoos? On their faces often? Is it cultural? Is it
is that standard for the Wizarding world? Harving it ruins? Yeah? On
you mm hmmm, that's that's probably some very um. I don't know if
it's illegal, but it feels to me like it's it's it's my gut says.
It's not a good idea, and it's probably old. Maybe it has
the dark magic because you know, your body is a temple, that kind
of thing like your yoga, right, a temple? Would you say that
my body like the okay, circling background to your first question, I know
I haven't seen, I really heard anything about putting runs on your body.
Maybe I don't let me segue for you that that teacher over there is the
head of Abous and she also teaches right. Yeah. Do you want to
ask her about the face tattoos? Is that it looks hard? Is that
a good idea? Do you want me to do it? I just don't
know anything. No, No, okay, I'll do it. No,
but I mean I can do it. I'm just not very taking notes,
and I don't know a singular thing about you running under the noise explosion?
Okay? Can I can you? Can you check on all of it.
I'll talk to the professor. I can do that. I'm gonna slide you.
I don't have any food left, but I have like the crumbs,
like the chocolate chip and like the crumbs of an old chocolate chip cookie.
I'm just gonna put that in your hand. It's not much, but it
should help. It should get your blood pressure up a little. Okay,
you can see all of Okay, Okay, she turns. He tells,
me, Okay, and I kind of just do my patrol round towards the
professor until I get there. And you're over by the study of Ancient rooms,
Professor, Professor Asterbucks. Yeah, high, Professor Box, how are
you feeling? You can see Professor Bucks is probably there with their eyes closed.
I'm sorry. And you approach, there's probably a few students by there
as well. They're probably just chatting, and as you approach the professor you
can realize like they're they're just asleep. Okay, the students. You can
probably hear just over here, just from being close proximity, like can you
believe that fight with the auras and those people with the masks? I heard
them say something like the council the Auras put up like a really good fight.
But I think I saw other students casting spells too. How are they
doing that? It was really advanced magic. So one of them use one
border, So what's strange about that? The first year? Okay, excuse
me, fellow students, Hi, did you hear anything else that those masked
people said? Did he see anything to the professor specifically or anything? I
did the professor mean you see anything to them? Uh? Professor bosh?
She said something like, um, I mean, leave the ours alone?
What are you doing in school? Don't you dare hurt those students? Students?
What are you doing? Don't cast those spells and other students. She
keeps trying to protect everyone. She was using shield charms and and the ouras
were trying to protect the other students. And it was chaos that the ooras
were trying to protect the students and they were trying to fight these people at
the same time. Okay, So professor didn't say anything like, oh,
you shouldn't meddle with magic like that, it's dangerous or I don't think so
okay, just in case, Okay, I can check later. The other
students, by the way that they they're just so you know, if you
see any of them, they're not bad. They were being controlled controlled,
that's yeah, that's the kid from the tower one. Oh. They both
sort of like look at you for a long moments. Yeah. I think
maybe one of the mast people had something to do with it. So it
was like, yeah, they were, they were, they were under a
spell, because as soon as those people disappeared, they all came to their
senses. Do you mean like an emburiosed, cause, yeah, but I
say I've had a feeling, I have a feeling. Maybe not. I
don't know if it's possible. I have to ask the head mistress. Are
any of these students older, like much older? I think they're probably like
fourth years. I think so probably four your fourth years? Right, Yeah,
have you learned anything yet? Maybe related to long distance or like remote
cana the previous curse. You're supposed to have to be close, But it's
like, I don't know, it was I don't know, do you know?
Well, we talked about the unforgivable unforgivable curses a bit, but I
don't know too much. I want very much. Oh, you have to
shoot because it'll be in your exams always, is the A But you got
me doing it now. The unforgivable curses are always in the exams. I
know. They just seems so terrible. Oh they really are. I think
I think maybe someone tried to cast it on me once. Yeah, so
what happened? Oh no, that was different. That was a cursed want
I think. I think I heard some of the oars say something about cust
ones. Right, they were protecting the students. Oh, they may be
thought the other students once were cursed and that's why they were behaving that way.
Okay. Uh, here's the thing. See, if you see any
of your friends talking to them else are holding their wand a whole lot,
you should take them to a pre effect or the head mistress because that's some
of the signs. If they start looking sickly and wandering around anyway, if
you're still around when the professor wakes up, can you let me know.
I'll just be patrolling. Okay, okay. I make sure you study the
unforgivable curses sort of like look at each other and how to do them,
just how to just why they're wrong, some of the effects and stuff,
and some of the wizards who are well known for using them. Events that
happened with the impedious curse specifically, I think, do you know what?
You can just look at the past exam papers. I think they've got them
in the library, right, But there's never too really to prepare for exams
really when you think about it. All right, well we'll worry about our
own exams. Oh, okay, to make I was saying that you should
worry about the unforgivable curses. Okay, thanks for your time, but bye,
I go back to investigating patrolling. Meanwhile, Rosie, you gotta check
on all Olif I know, how are you doing is the wrong question,
but how can we get you feeling better? Might be the right one.
Olive doesn't say anything. She just stays with her eyes fixed the same kind
of glassy eyed expression, staring off into his face. I've got just a
trick land on these bad boys. I dracked Clem away from the wombing willows,
so I think that I am at least half of a bodybuilder. Now
that didn't work, Okay. I gave my last cookie crumbs to Alex,
and I am now out of food, so I don't have anything to fix
your blood sugar, which is clearly the problem. And I'm definitely not suggesting
yoga, not once. If you want a hug. When Rosie says that,
Olive just bursts into tears, like heaving, struggling to breathe, kind
of sobs. Okay, okay, I'm kicking out. You did not,
but I'm gonna come in for the hug now. I know it sucks.
It's okay, you can cry. I'm sorry if I smell. I've been
trying to work on that. Hopefully this not running out of your nose is
distraction enough. I thought I was gonna have to fight you in again like
lost year. I'm glad you didn't have to fight him again, but don't
worrything that if he had tried to fight you, Clym would have punched him
in the face because I saw her do it to someone else today and she
was very successful, so I think she would have had it covered. I'm
so tired being so scared at school all the time. Yeah, it's kind
of messed up. I don't understand how that keeps happening. But also you
have like this mean stare that you did at calling mood down, and it
was chilling. You didn't. That was really impressive. That's just my face.
You're so intimidating in a good way. In a good way because the
rest of us aren't intimidating, you know, like maybe Clem when she gets
feisty and mazy when she snaps. So maybe it's just me and Alex are
very intimidating. No one likes me out of save everyone likes you. Literally.
I think that's the problem. We all like you so much. We
want to be you. You're the brightest person, the strongest wizard. You're
so good at everything. It's too much weight on your shoulders. Clearly,
I'm gonna have to take some of it off. So if you could teach
me how to do all your spells that good, I would really appreciate it.
So I'll just take that weight off your shoulders. You won't have to
be the best at spells anymore. Don't even worry about it. I got
a coboard. I'm not strong, Rosie. If I were, I wouldn't
have frozen, and I wouldn't be crying right now. Last time I checked.
Having emotions that exists inside your body doesn't make you less strong. It
doesn't. That's ridiculous. How you'd just be a robot? You are strong.
What do you mean you you got me to take a whole path.
That's that's strength. And you always do the brightest spells. That's strength.
And you always cheer up your friends that strength. And you always know how
to talk to us when we're sad. That strength, and you know when
when to be upset, which is also a strength. And even if you
don't like yoga, which might be your one weakness, I think the rest
of the things you have going for you are strengths. I like yoga,
had a very important time like this. It's not lying like yoga. I
don't want it first. And then when when when we did it together,
it was a lot better, so you know, so right, Oh see,
now we don't have anything. Now you're good at yoga too. Strengths
all around. You're passing your o. Is it owp else apples owls?
Rosy like the bird? And can you spell mister Klaffel's last name again because
he oh he t e r palta for them, so it's not pronounced clawfel,
it never has been. Rosy. Okay, okay, okay, okay,
maybe I should get it tattoo like that room on my hand. Speaking
of don't you take anchine rooms. I was talking to Alex about this,
but I think the anger roan teacher might be sleeping. And then I think
I heard Alex telling kids how to study when I asked him to talk to
the ancient room teacher. It sounds like Alex. I literally think he was
giving them studying tips. I think this is his mental breakdown. I think
we all deserve a mental breakdown every once in a while. I agree.
And it's been two hours since I've had a carved, so mine's just around
the corner. Thank you, Rosie. Yeah, I don't know what I
did, but you're welcome. Also, you didn't do it before, so
you want to. Clem seems impressed. All I was gonna reach out and
put her hand on Rosy's bicep. It's bigger, right, I bet I
could do a push up. I'm gonna get on the ground and attempt to
do a push up, but I'm not even gonna roll for it. I
know I failed, and I just get back up. I recover really quickly,
and I'm maybe after maybe Yeah, not quit there yet. Okay,
there, you got the first bit right where you'd go on the ground.
Yeah, yeah, see always looking on the bright side a strength. Do
you want to lay down? I could get like there's probably tea in here
somewhere and probably probably has tea. Do you think I have to walk extra
special slow to get to it? Yeah, I'll be back in a second,
twenty a minute. Okay, my flavor, whatever's left by the time
you get there, Okay, I'll let you know. I just gonna continue
walking to where I think that Poppers asks. Okay, I'll swing on by,
claims bed as I circle around. How are you doing? Claim?
Hey? Yeah, how are you doing? Yeah? How did you How
did you get how did you get your hearts? How did I get my
hurts? Yeah? Yeah, you injury? Sorry, that's the word.
The wamping willow kicked the butts out of me, So that's basically it hands
a bit sore from punching a fourth year I knew I could have taken a
little bit more if McGonagall didn't. So, yeah, you got in a
fight with the womping willow. Well, I wouldn't call it a fight.
I would say it womped me probably. Well. I mean, I don't
know how much you've read about the womping willow, but not many people can
punch someone else after they've been wamped by the willow. Some people don't very
good. Some people don't do much at all over again after being wamped.
But that's why we're doing. I mean, maybe it's not the word we
should use in a place where I think you could have stop doing things forever.
Cool. I mean the fact did you even the fact that you even
walk? I can how how are you feeling? Did you use a spell?
Did use the potato and it broke through? Did you anger primarily just
pure unbridled rage? Yeah, you just clenched your teeth and to go womp.
Well, I mean I wasn't prepared for the womp, but everything after
basically, well you gotta caught off guard wamp and and then managed to fight
people afterwards. Yeah, okay, I'll just make sure that I never ever
where's my Okay, I just need to take a note to make sure that
I remember never ever to get on your bedside every again. I will ever
fight you, says the person who uh, I will who too? Who
could wamp by a womping willow? I just want to make sure you're you're
you're kind of punched, and I very often can say the wrong thing.
Saying your punch he was probably the wrong thing, or anythink about it,
and so there was a fair chance that I may get punched someday if I'm
not super careful. So I'm going to take extra steps because I feel like
if you survive a womp like that, it's only going to make you stronger.
And that's what they say, right, what doesn't stop you forever makes
you stronger. I'm going to put my hand on Alex's shoulder, look deep
into his eyes and say, Alex, I will never punch you unless you
deserve it. He said, I'll try my best not to deserve it.
That's well, I'll write down, never deserve to be punched. That's a
better note. Thanks for the note. I'm listening. Welcome. But apart
from from that, from surviving a womp and still being in fighting shape,
somehow are you is everything? Did you? Did you have any clues?
See any clues, find any clues that you can remember? Well, the
masked man who found us was wearing a praying mantis mask, and he made
it so that we couldn't make sound, and then said that he was going
to take us with him. Mm hmm. Yeah, there was. So
there was the fox, which was which is calling? And then there was
the wolfish mask, and then there was the praying mantis. One did it
seem when I had mistress told him to let you two go, it wasn't
Colin and said, okay, let them go. It was the praying mantis
mask? Right? Oh yeah, wait that doesn't that kind of seems like
a leader decision, right, And or he was the one in charge of
the student's control. Oh could it be that Colin maybe isn't the baddest of
them, I mean fox, but praying mantis. Praying mantises are scary.
I mean, do you know what they do? Yeah, let's not.
Yeah, I think it's either Colin's not. But then he just Colin just
took off his mask and was chattering away without getting permission. We had permission.
If he was a leader, maybe he was in charge of it a
wolf or praying mantis. Well, maybe it's not about the animal, it's
but what they represent. Foxes are cunning, will loyal, bity and hunter's
BiDi and mantises are murderous, creepy, seductive, and murderous. Okay,
I read that in a book about bugs that's that, okay, mantis Wan.
Did he say anything to you that maybe gave clues? Well, he
knew that we weren't a part of the group, and I don't really know.
Yeah, we were like we were trying to get by him, and
we were Rosie was so smart, she like pulled us into the line so
that we looked like we belonged in the line. And then as they were
walking up the tower, he was gone. We couldn't see him, so
we tried to slip away, and he immediately he immediately said, oh to
there's something wrong, Like he just knew there was something wrong. She didn't
see us, so how we didn't know. Maybe he was in charge of
the students, because anybody there's there's two more here than there that I can
count on my magical But he didn't see us, so he must have sensed
us somehow. Yeah, maybe he has a device, or maybe he has
a magical connection. Maybe he has praying Minta's senses. Do you think this
sentence I sound crazy, but like, do you think maybe they're using creatures?
I don't know. I think maybe it's just it could just be a
way for them to identify each other with their masks, because if they all
had the same mask, they'd be like, hey are you calling and be
like, no, I am Joshua. And then so if they look and
they go, oh, I know fox mask is calling, I can just
call them Fox because they have the Fox mask. Alex, what happened with
Mazie? She was in the hospital wing right the worlfy looking mask fail.
I came in and I tried to cast a spell, but he was so
quick, Alex. I know, I know you, and I know that
you did everything. If you couldn't have done it, then no one could
have. Okay, and got stuck in my head. I thought, do
I try and stupefy him? How do I try? And I was thinking
I could flippendo Mazie out of the way, or I could flippendo him back.
And then and that's split second when I couldn't decide, he grabbed her
and apparated. H I mean, it's the second time that's happened where I
could have helped herbs right there and I didn't. Huh, Hey, Alex,
look at me, Look at me, I am, but behind my
eyelids, open your eyes and look at me. You can I can do
one? Is that Okay, okay, you can do one. You did
super well. No one could have No one could have gotten her. Okay,
do you hear me? It's not your fault. Okay, what I
lie to you? No? Okay, So it was the wolf that took
her. It was wolf. Esh. But yeah, and then I really
shouldn't be able to shouldn't No one should be able to appenin into Hogwarts.
Those warnings has to open. The students were doing something down the students at
the Womping Willow where I got womped, they were doing something weird to the
wall. We thought maybe they were doing something, maybe they made it come
in when I thought so, the first off, they shouldn't be able to
that's super advanced magic. But then the other students who were with with the
professor during the fight said that the the other students who were with the mantis
or whoever they were doing spells, they shouldn't be able to do a first
year cast of Bombarder. Yeah, there was there was a fourth year there,
people of all years. Yeah, but they were casting spells they shouldn't
be able to cast. I don't think they were casting them. I think
like I don't. I don't understand how imperious curse works enough. It's like
it's like if if there's something to do with the routines or yeah, it
was like there were someone was casting it through them. If you had told
me that it wasn't students. There was a bunch of people with polygues portions
to look like students who were advanced magic casters, I would say, Okay,
that makes sense. Yeah the ruins as well. Gosh, it's like
it's like there's something there. But I wish I was smarter. Do you
feel wish you were smarter all the time? Pretty much every day I wish
I was smart. How smarter I could figure this out? Yeah, there's
something with the wands cursed, and I just don't know enough. But that's
good that we can. We can maybe use that information the minister. I
don't know. Next time, hopefully the minister comes and I can meet with
her and I can see there there was ruins on his face, and then
there was this other fella who could sense the students that were under his control,
and we think he had control of his students. And then she don't
know because she's got a library that she's got a special library. So I
can't believe that. God, why can't anyone come over here and fix my
stupid ribs that we can go the well, that's the thing. We can't
go yet. They're gonna bring Mazie back, so we should wait for her
and then we can go. Okay, then then we'll go and get But
if she's not back in three hours, then we go to find her.
Go where l cadabra in anywhere? I don't know, somewhere anywhere but here.
I don't understand why always here? It's honestly, I think it's just
because we're so cool, people want to hang out with us. So it's
maybe not the same as joke. Do you think that said said that mister
Potter being the head order and being you know, mister Potter. They said
that they captured him. Yeah, Maybey, he's the head order. Do
you think he let them do it on purpose? Maybe he has like a
magical tracking defense or something, or he has a secret truth that he can
bait down on that will unleash a dragon. I think adults pretend like they
know what they're doing, but I don't think they know any more than we
do. Well, it's I that's true. Those fourth years. I told
you didn't even they were studying the anyway. I'm just saying I don't really
trust anymore that the adults can protect us, or that they know what's out
there, or that they know how to stop it or anything like that.
The only people who can take care of us are us. I kind of
half agree. I think he can protect us, but I think we also
need to protect us. They can protect us as well as they think they
can. We can help then protect us, and they can help us ourselves.
It's like they all became adults and then they were like, oh,
all of these things are impossible, so we won't even entertain the notion everything's
fine. Everything's fine all the time. So they don't even see it coming.
To be fair, though we didn't see it coming either. Well,
we knew something was going to happen. Yeah. Well, I mean that's
I'm just saying, I'm sorry. Well, I mean, you do have
a broken said, yeah, that's got a hurt, and pain makes people
grumpy. Plus generally you have a bit of a temper, so I mean
that's probably compounding things. So it's I think it's okay to be angry.
I mean, well, to be honest everyone should be angry at this situation.
We came here to have fun, maybe go to Hogsmead and meet some
friends, and instead we're learning doing a year early and pretty go yearly and
having to do all sorts of unusual things. I mean, I mean,
it's well, let's put it this week. It doesn't really match what the
brochure said. You've got a brochure and like, metaphorically, yeah, I
know. I was just kind of also trying to metaphorically say that, oh
right, okay, should delivery. I don't know if you should delivery or
my reception of it. I'm just my brain's a bit scattered. I'm trying
to just keep Honestly, it's probably it's probably me or a bit of both.
Uh So I wouldn't worry about it. Okay, Well, I've basically
checked on everyone, and I did a parameter scan, so I've been running
out of things to do so I don't have to think. So, do
you have any suggestions? What is the difference between a praying mantis, a
fox, and a wolf? What makes them special? Each of them?
No one picks an animal to look like for no reason. They pick it
because they like it. A lot because it feels real familiar to them because
it represents something that they want to be, something that they want to attain.
Well, Foxes is cunning right all and definitely strikes me as a kind
of person who thinks they're cunning. Or maybe what I's what if it's like
their patronis? Could it be their patronus that makes me deeper because supposed to
be animegas is, maybe it's their animegas form. I think they can be
the same. But the animegus and the patronus, it represents something within them,
right, It's represents something within you. You only turn into the one
thing you don't become up. You know, I'm probably a bucket of crabs
or something, you know, like it represents who you are inside. I
don't know what your animegus form would be. What's something that's punchy, I
don't know, like a ram or something maybe like a gorilla or a chimp.
Anyway, maybe that's they've probably thought of that, But Dick, you
said no that adults don't see things. I'll put those forward as suggestions and
when I next speak to someone who is important, many years important, and
see if that helps them. Maybe there's a wretched animeguss do have to be
registered. I looked into accept one. To do it, you have to
put a leaf in your mouth for like a month. Oh yeah, we
talked about doing that in first year. I remember I'm so close to actually
doing it. Maybe we should do it this year. Maybe we should do
it. We probably can escape opportunities. Yeah, I think they have to
be registered, so I will. Unless you turn into a fish I'll bring
in. That would be unfortunate. Mhmm. I think you could just switch
back. But then if you're going to be a fish, you want to
be a big fish. Would you want to be a big fish because there's
always a bigger fish. Yeah, like a shark could be cool. A
shark would be cool, or an or no, one misses with a shark
that's not a fish through an orc as a mammal. Right, we're getting
distracted, but that's what I wanted. But now I want distracted because they
brought it up. Hum h a, I U chicken Barney, Like,
oh, go find Barney. Yeah, I follow the trail of words back
towards Barney and I are you all right? No? But I'm pretending I
am until I can stop. Is everybody okay, m amazing? He's not
here, but she'll be back. I was Lily and we we were chasing,
we were chasing after Ashley in the go and trying to see what she
was doing. You know what this is going on? And and that's that's
when Lily's dad he must have seen Lily and he went to try and grab
her and protect her. And then these people in masks shown up and they
had students with them, and he was fighting all of these people in masks
and trying to protect us, and he was trying to protect Ashley and he
just couldn't keep up. Someone cussed petrificus stone Tanis on him and he froze
up and hit the ground. Okay, is Lily Okay? Not really?
She just here? Yeahcause Ashley here. Oh yes, Ashley is speaking to
the head mistress right now. What happened? I don't really know how to
describe him, but Ashley, I thought I heard her say something strange.
What you say? She said? Where are my parents? Oh? That
is where we're going to end the episode today. Crying and screaming and punching
the face. Camra, you're the one that has to go. Don't act
like you wouldn't done the exact same. I hear it all right, Oh
my god, we're gonna have another scalar episode from Wax Stevens. Oh please,
thank you all for being here today. If you haven't done so,
please make sure you're following all of these lovely people. Head on over to
Table Story Dad, TV, slash w A W to follow them in all
the places. We're gonna do our end of session stuff quickly and uh,
we're gonna wrap things up please. Uh does anybody have does anybody feel like
they acted counter to any of their traits? Nope? Yeah, okay,
alrighty AXTEP relationships. I'm going to give a plus one to Olive because because
we had a nice cheery moment. Okay, cheery is a difficult word there.
I am also going to give a plus one to Olive, but for
kind of very selfish reasons. Alex Is always kind of felt a sort of
subpart all of she's always the one saving the day, and he managed to
save her and then kind of look out for a bet. So it's like,
I don't know, something like that. Yeah, just a little personal
adda boy, Yeah, I didn't expect to feel feelings doing this. I
want to give plus ones to everyone, but I can't do that. So
I'm gonna give my plus one to Alex because I feel like they don't often
get to have moments together like that. And I don't think Olive would have
been able to leave the Great Hall if Alex didn't physically move her and make
sure she was okay. So Alex basically thought to himself, what what mas
he do in this situation? And I just did that. So, oh,
I'm gonna give my plus one to Rosie. She was my partner in
crime and she saved me with a badger and we got kidnapped together and she
dragged my broken body along. So all right, let's do our classes school
roles. Please every ready, roll plus your mind. Please keep in mind
any modifiers you might have had or anything else. Okay, we started with
Lilian roll today. Okay, it's an accident I had the wrong with No,
that's fine, We're gonna start with this lither We don't. I don't
think we've ever started with this Lytheran. Let's let's start with this Litherans today.
Sounds like a plan. Okay, uh, Lilian with an eight corny
only with the six is going to nullify that role. I'll do uh,
I'll do the last one. That's a seven for me, So five points
are slytherin okay, alrighty, and let's see Olive for the Gryffindors with a
ten, Clem with a five. That's five, and I will do the
last one, which is a nine for another five, So ten points total
for the Gryffindors, okay, and then Rosie with an eight, five points
for Hufflepuff, seven for me another five and a five so even even Okay,
I mean I rolled a five, so uh okay, and Alexander a
nine for the Raven clause five points and dies lost forever. Okay, it's
a seven for five points and last one a three bring Raven claw back to
two seventy Okay? Did I math wrong for the Griffindors. This is it
three fifteen? I think it was the fine mix up? Five okay?
Okay, yeah, and let's do our shout outs in downtime moves please,
uh Luxy, why don't you start us off today? Hello? I need'sox
games. I played with Lean here. I just played a really chaotic passam
en route. I began. I don't think you were the chaotic player.
I really thought she would be. I thought she would be more chaotic,
but she actually ended up being a chaotic mom. It was so I feel
like, I feel like it was cathartic for me to watch you play the
possum mind telling people to get their stuff together. You're like, what's happening,
What's going on? Oh my god. I'm going to make the swelling
solution again today. I only I got a kind of on it last time,
so I'm going to reattempt it this time since it was so useful.
So I'm just going to do a little mind role and deducted eleven gallions.
It is just a kind of again. Ye Now I have two kinds of
swelling solutions, which is better than one swell solutions. Just just wow.
My games. I'm a bride stream around Twitch. I do a lot of
stuff, but mostly I play video games. Shockingly, sometimes I talk for
like hours on end, and then people come in and they're like, why
are you playing a video game? And I'm like, this is what you
signed up for. Leave. So I'm playing New World tomorrow and probably for
like the rest of the two weeks. I was part of like their Forever
my friend just locked and it feels like home, so I feel like I'll
be on it for a minute. It's just okay, I just can't wait
to buy house, but I am doing. I was part of their one
of their beta programs, so like, I have like a kit of stuff
that you can only get from people that played that. So if you want
to watch tomorrow I will, you'll be able to get that drop. And
also I'll be giving my key so that you can join my company and I'll
be the strongest team ever. Okay, things fine, Thank you Luxy,
and thank you Luxy for, by the way, playing from her vacation location.
And thank you so much for for making this happen Luxy and going out
of your way to actually, you know, I'm on the show during your
vacation. It's fine, alcoholic, what's new? Thank you, myrtles.
Hello, Okay, downtime move. I think I will try to do a
club okay, which, based on how I've been rolling today, seems like
a really stupid thing to do, trying and join the club club. Yeah,
I am. Can I take that back? Actually, because I opened
my sheet and realized that I was exhausted. I was exhausted. Sure,
why it's a downtime move. Oh, you know, I commit, I
committed. I'll do it anyway. Just do what boom babe. I imagine
you're trying to join at a club with your broken rip like you've left.
Yeah. I love the Yeah. I was trying to face in the air.
I was trying to face palm and then I realized I have a wizard
hat on it. I can't do it. There you go, there you
go. Hello, I am Myrgles. I played Clementine Goosanders for you today.
I stream Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays on Twitch. I'm very excited because
this Sunday is the second season of Leech. I heard thank you Mine,
Myrgles is on that show, and I watch I have already said that I
was on the show, and then like the YouTube had the cast in the
description, so I thought it was okay. And then I saw some people
be like, oh, we haven't announced it yet, and I was like,
oh no, I don't listen. I don't expect anything to not be
revealed by the time of a show. Start date with you goobers. Because
I am a lock box. I Phoebe is the accidental spillage. She's got
a cup and her cup runneth over, except it's it's just accidental. It's
just so much joy. It's so much like actual thrill and joy. So
yeah. Plus on top of that, I think people might make some inferences
from the break screens that we had today, so we'll see see. So
thank you, myrtles. It works. Okay, I'm gonna mix it up
a bit. I'm gonna practice spellcasting this week. I haven't done that in
a while. I'm cursed for just end of session roles. When have I?
When was the last time I failed a magic role? When there's a
spreadsheet for that? Was that a double one? You had to be?
Yeah? Yeah on one, I rolled double ones. Got he's got a
plus two. Okay, I'm gonna scream into a pillow about this later.
In a way, though, I kind of feel relieved because it's like,
well, now we know it's just all the end of session rolls. It's
it's not any one particular one I'm trying. I'm just cursed for any end
of session role. So great, good to know. Hi, I'm nuga
Rix. I'm so distraught right now from the information I just discovered about my
end of session roles. I'm a voice actor, table top RPG player,
uh, full time streamer, and freelance host. You can catch me tomorrow.
I'm gonna be playing New World with Lexi in the morning. I'm gonna
be squatting up. I didn't want to say unless you hadn't told anyone.
Oh yeah I did. I did. And then Thursday, I am going
to be going to an event for with Volcom with a bunch of pro skaters
because when you look at me, I'm sure you think athletics and coordination and
skateboarding. So wish me luck. I will post on my Instagram stories a
lot so you can see it in real time. But yeah, good luck
to me. Thank you for having me, Thank you for being here,
Zigonikis. I'm going to try and join a club. Okay, I feel
like we've gone full circle, Like everybody's switched their their downtime moves, like
over the course of the year and nine. That means I'm a nane that
play a charter guess to learn a secret from one of the people on their
relationship. Last I will figure that out. Hi, every William's gotta kiss
