                                            Grayson lowered his book as students started to enter the class. He looked over them all, curious as to how they would take the class. On one hand, there were those that found the class to be quite boring, and on the other hand, there were those that found, like himself, that history was full of intrigue, if they looked through it properly. At least that was how he viewed it. More than likely, the majority would find this class boring and move on, but he hoped that there were a few that he'd be able spark a bit of interest in the subject.

                                            He stood, placing the book he'd been reading down.
                                            "Hello class, and welcome back to History of Magic. As you all have had an entire summer to empty your heads of all that you may have learned over the last year, as well as give me a good chance to refresh your knowledge, today we will review what you have learned in the subject over the last year, before we go on to this year's topics. Please answer one at a time, and only cover one topic. That way, we can hopefully get everyone's participation in the class."

                                                    It was Selina's desire to stay on Professor Powell's good side this term, especially since he was her teacher in two of her classes. Already, she was starting to get a feeling for just how much homework she'd let herself in for, and wondered if maybe she'd bitten off more than she could chew. As it was, she decided that it was up to her if she succeeded or failed, and it was too early yet to declare that she couldn't do it.

                                                    Selina raised her hand, and said in her soft tones, "We discussed the magical artefacts known as the Deathly Hallows, and what their capabilities were, along with which of them we desired to own and why."

Grace walked into her first class mid week. Finding a seat next to Selina, she couldn't wait to get review over and done with. The sooner they covered that the sooner they could get into new material. Knowing she'd have Professor Powell for two classes she needed to do her best in both. So being as focus as usual on the conversation at hand, Grace waited until Selina was finished before adding a topic. "We also talked about the Ollivander family and how Garrick the last Ollivander to own the wand shop could remember every wand he ever sold." she said before falling silent and waited for someone else to go next. Despite wanting to say more Grace didn't want to take all the information from her classmates. It would be unfair to them she supposed and as Professor Powell said one topic per person. If someone wanted to add on to what she said, Grace wouldn't have a problem with that.

                                                  Joel walked into class and simply took a seat away from the Ravenclaws. He then settled down to start doodling, as he wasn't that interested in listening to review. He'd heard it enough during the summer when Grayson had decided to brush him up on history enough to make him wish he had an invisibility cloak to hide underneath of. As it was, he looked up to see Grayson giving him a look and he shrugged at his cousin. What, like Grayson actually expected him to pay attention? He thought that his cousin would know Joel better than that.

And the people went into their hide...
From the start they didn't know exactly why-
Winter came and made it so all look alike, look alike;
Underneath the grass would grow, aiming at the sky.
It was swift, it was just, another wave of a miracle...
But no one, nothing at all would go for the kill!
If they called one very soul in the land on the move-
Only then would they know a blessing in disguise.

Anti didn't really mind History of Magic, but she didn't love it, either. It was dull and everyone tended to act like morons during it. She sat by Selina and Grace, both of whom had spoken up, and kept her mouth shut. It was early. She didn't feel like hearing the sound of her own voice.

The curse ruled from the underground down by the shore...

The curse ruled from the underground down by the shore...
And their hope grew with a hunger to live unlike before!
Tell me now of the very souls that look alike, look alike;
Do you know the stranglehold covering their eyes?
If I call on every soul in the land on the move-
Tell me if I'll ever know a blessing in disguise.

Ceri walked into the History of Magic class and spotted her friends immediately, making a beeline over to them. She sat with them and smiled happily, then began to unpack her bag. When they were asked to review what they'd learned last year, Ceri looked around. Selina mentioned the Deathly Hallows and Grace mentioned the Ollivander. Ceri squeaked as she realized she could speak up too. Raising her hand, she said, "Oh, and we learned about Beedle the Bard. He recorded lots of stories and published them." She blinked, then smiled. No stutters or muttering! No cracking in her voice! She'd done it! She smiled widely and looked to her friend.

                                            Grayson walked into the classroom, looked around to see that everything was ready, and picked up a piece of chalk. He wrote on the chalkboard, and when finished, turned to regard the class as a whole.


                                            Professor Powell
                                            Muggle Witch Burnings


                                            "Hello class. Last time, we went over the subjects you studied last year to refresh any knowledge you may have lost over the summer. Today, we are going to go ahead and study the witch burnings of the 1600's.

                                            "Now, as you are very well aware, muggles nowadays don't know about the wizarding world, due to either ignoring magic when they see it or passing it off as merely fantasy for children. However, that was not always the case. The International Statute of Secrecy was only enacted relatively recently within the last several centuries, which of course hides magic from the rest of the world.

                                            "However, wizards and muggles did coexist at some point. For the greater bit of history, they worked together. However, at some point muggles began to distrust wizards, and some even began to fear them. It culminated into the infamous witch burnings that basically ran like wildfire across the world.

                                            "The witch burnings weren't specific in who they targeted. Mostly, they actually persecuted other muggles who they believed to be a witch. Unfortunately, that wasn't always the case. Many of the witches and wizards they grabbed were muggleborn, and they were unfortunate in that most of the time when they were captured, it was due to uncontrollable acts of random magic they had performed.

                                            "Contrary to the name, burning wasn't the only way they got rid of witches. Stoning, throwing them off cliffs, and even drownings were also considered to be acceptable ways to get rid of witches. Most witches and wizards who were caught actually didn't die, as they were able to cast some form of magic to get them out of the situation. One witch in particular found it quite fun to get caught. Wendolyn the Weird actually was caught a grand total of forty-seven times, mostly in different guises, because she found that the tickling sensation of casting a fire-freezing charm was actually enjoyable."


                                            He sat at the edge of his desk as he regarded the class with a bit of a grin. "As I'm sure you have questions, please feel free to ask them, or if you wish to discuss it, that's perfectly fine too."

The time period they were discussing was of interest to her, as many of her ancestors lived through it, and there were a few still around whom were happy to tell her tales. Still and all, when he invited the class to start a discussion, she decided to keep her own counsel. Selina had no desire to earn the ire of a professor whom taught two of her classes. She was also curious to learn whom else might be drawn into starting a discussion.

Grace loved history and it showed when she walked into class and took a seat next to Selina. Witch burning was interesting especially when some kept getting caught for fun. Honestly who wanted to go through that even if they could use spells to protect themselves from certain death. The Ravenclaw wasn't about to argue with why people back then did that. People did what they did for a reason right? Listening to the lesson, Grace took detailed notes on the subject. There certainly wasn't anything that she needed to ask about it. Not unless Professor Powell could explain the sanity of Wendolyn the Weird. Which, she hardly doubted.

Well you certainly know what you want.

                                            Grayson lowered his book as students started to enter the class. He looked over them all, curious as to how they would take the class. On one hand, there were those that found the class to be quite boring, and on the other hand, there were those that found, like himself, that history was full of intrigue, if they looked through it properly. At least that was how he viewed it. More than likely, the majority would find this class boring and move on, but he hoped that there were a few that he'd be able spark a bit of interest in the subject.

                                            He stood, placing the book he'd been reading down.
                                            "Hello class, and welcome back to History of Magic. As you all have had an entire summer to empty your heads of all that you may have learned over the last year, as well as give me a good chance to refresh your knowledge, today we will review what you have learned in the subject over the last year, before we go on to this year's topics. Please answer one at a time, and only cover one topic. That way, we can hopefully get everyone's participation in the class."

She hated this class, and while she tried to remember the things she was told, rarely did she ever... It was terrible. And, they were reviewing, therefore Sybil was going to attempt making herself as small and unnoticeable as possible.

Tristan jogged into the classroom in a complete dishevel; he hadn't meant to sleep so long but his little nap in the gardens made him miss breakfast and now he was running on empty. His stomach growled as he slid into a seat beside Sybil, flashing her a wide smile while he attempted to tame his wild mane and emerald trim robes. ”Hey,” the passing greeting could've been easily missed with as quickly he rushed it out. He thought to dig through his satchel for a quill and notebook but figured it would be pointless if they were just reviewing. And that's all the first week of lesson's really is, review work. ”We went over the Deathly Hallows; the elder wand, resurrection stone, and invisibility cloak,” he piped up, spared a second glance at Sybil to nod before quickly adding, ”Yeah, Sybil's right, we went over Beedle and the Bard too.” Well that covers him and Sybil, anyway, now to watch the rest of the class squirm.

                                                              Levi walked into History, taking a seat in the back by himself seeing as no one he ever really had interacted with was present at the moment. Just like he expected, the first class was dedicated to review, just like most other first classes. He didn't really mind, honestly. It was pretty easy, anyway, having to just remember something you did from last year. Raising his hand, he gave his own answer. "Also the Ollivander family. We learned about them."

What's with the hair?" she asked quietly, eyebrow raising in question. She sat back as Tristan was the first to speak, and was surprised to hear him claim she uttered a word. "Why'd you do that?" She asked, staring at Tristan blankly. Well, more so than usual. "I really don't care if I lose points for not participating." She pointed out. History wasn't her forte, that was her sister's area. "I mean, thanks...but, still." She went on, realising she may seem a little ungrateful.
