The Wind and the Wings of Hogwarts

A barefoot little girl in a nightgown sat with her knees drawn up to her chest on the large windowsill, bathed in the warm morning light.

That was a gift he gave to Luna for Christmas in 1992.

“I will tell Savanna what you want to do…”

Luna took out paper and pen and began to write a letter, while Scott sat down on a stool next to her and opened the magazine in his hand.

A Shocking Turn of Events: The Darkest Moments at the World Cup Final

Mr. Lovegood's article is very long and detailed.

As for the content...

Compared to the facts that Scott explained to him, it can't be said that they were completely unrelated, but rather that they were not very related.

It is clear that Mr. Lovegood prefers the story as it was embellished by Fred and George.

Scott even suspected that he had done a second round of editing on top of the twins' polished version.

But this is for the best.

Scott thought.

Such exaggerated stories not only fit the tone of The Quibbler magazine better, but also avoid offending Voldemort and the Death Eaters too much.

He suddenly remembered that Luna had been captured by Death Eaters in the original book because Mr. Lovegood had openly supported Harry in a magazine, so the Death Eaters kidnapped Luna to threaten him.

It is easy to imagine that Luna, who was imprisoned in the dungeon of Malfoy Manor in the "original book", must have suffered a lot of hardship and torment.

Scott looked at Luna's back as she wrote furiously and decided to protect her.

"It's written, take a look."

Luna turned around and handed him the parchment she had written on.

Scott took it, glanced at it, and nodded.

"Then let's send it out!"

Luna took out an envelope, folded the parchment, put it inside, sealed it, and wrote Savannah's name on the envelope.

They went downstairs together and asked an owl to deliver the letter.

“I think Savannah will reply soon,” Luna said, watching the owl fly away. “She often complains to me that her time is too boring…”

The two were talking under the crabapple tree when Mr. Lovegood suddenly came out from inside the door.

“It’s time for us to have lunch, Luna.” He glanced at Scott. “Oh, you’re still here, boy.”

He urged Scott to leave quickly with his eyes.

Unfortunately, Luna and her father had absolutely no understanding on this matter.

“Come on in, Scott,” she warmly invited Scott. “You can try our homemade Gordigan tea.”

“It’s my pleasure,” Scott said with a slight smile.

Although Mr. Lovegood’s gaze was almost burning his face, he pretended not to notice.

“Welcome,” Mr. Lovegood said through gritted teeth.

Scott and Luna both enjoyed their lunch.

Although Luna's recommended homemade godigan tea was really hard to drink, the other food didn't taste too strange.

At the dinner table, Scott and Luna chatted and laughed as they ate, while Mr. Lovegood seemed sullen.

After lunch, Scott still showed no intention of leaving.

Although Mr. Lovegood was in great pain, as long as he didn't directly kick him out, Scott pretended not to understand his roundabout ways and his subtle hints.

In the end, Mr. Lovegood could only turn a blind eye and choose to stay alone in his workshop.

“Maybe I’ve become Mr. Lovegood’s most hated person,” Scott said to Luna.

Luna burst into laughter.

"Oh, it's okay, my dad is always so energetic."

Scott also found it funny, "I kept wondering when he would finally give in and kick me out, but I didn't expect him to hold back."

“Of course, he won’t kick you out,” Luna said confidently. “I think he’s just teasing me; he does that all the time.”

"..."

As the culprit, Scott also felt sorry for Mr. Lovegood.

He was quite certain that although Mr. Lovegood's performance was more of a performance, it also contained genuine emotions.

Just as Luna had said, the owl returned in the afternoon with Savannah's reply.

There were still two letters; in addition to the reply to Luna, Savannah also wrote a separate letter to Scott.

But after reading the letter, Scott had to temporarily abandon his plan to go to the Sea of ​​Oaks.

Given the gravity of the matter, Savannah did not hide the prophecy's revelation that Slytherin might be resurrected from her grandfather.

Scott was not surprised by this.

Putting aside past grievances, if Slytherin were to be resurrected, it wouldn't just be Scott who would face the crisis; the Druids of House Dougherty, who have guarded the passageways for generations, would be the first to bear the brunt.

Savannah told Scott that her grandfather had revealed part of the truth to others, and now the druids were divided into two factions.

Some druids had no confidence in defeating Slytherin and advocated abandoning their generations-long duty to guard the passage, wanting to escape completely.

Another group of druids, like Scott, preferred to take the initiative and try to open a passage into Avalon to explore.

At this tense moment, it seemed inappropriate for Scott to get directly involved.

Chapter 446 Deciding to Head to the Sea of ​​Oaks

While Scott was pondering, Luna finished reading the letter in her hand.

“What are you going to do?” she asked Scott.

Scott thought about it.

Although he temporarily abandoned the idea of ​​going to the Sea of ​​Oaks after reading the letter, he was still somewhat unwilling.

Medea fell into a deep sleep; now was the perfect opportunity.

"I think I need some advice now."

As he said this, he prepared to summon the portrait of Ravenclaw.

"Some suggestions?" Luna asked.

Scott turned his head and saw the change in her eyes.

The once clear, silvery-gray eyes were now misty and mysterious.

“I saw it…” Luna’s tone became uncertain. “Perhaps you should go, but the Sea of ​​Oaks is not the end of your journey.”

Scott was taken aback, then looked delighted. "What did you see, Luna?"

Unfortunately, Luna blinked, and her eyes returned to normal.

“I’m sorry, I can’t see any more,” she said softly.

"It's alright, thank you."

Although it was a bit of a disappointment, Scott didn't care too much.

Luna's eyes are quite magical, and after spending so much time together, he has learned more about these naturally "magical eyes".

These eyes grant Luna a prophetic ability, but it differs from a true prophecy.

Luna cannot make specific predictions about the future of people or things like a master prophet, but her abilities are still quite remarkable.

The "seeing" she speaks of is more of an intuition, a magical intuition that allows her to see through many things and even give others the right guidance.

Although this guidance is only a general direction, it is based on the premise of being "correct," and for Scott, that is enough.

“Next, I will ask my mentor for advice,” Scott told Luna.

He took a blank picture frame from the shapeshifting lizard skin bag and began to summon his Ravenclaw mentor.

“You’ve missed several days of class, my apprentice.”

Ravenclaw's portrait soon appeared in the blank frame.

Scott apologized, "I'm sorry, respected mentor, I think you already know about what happened the day before."

Ravenclaw nodded slightly. "Yes, I already know. To be honest, I don't understand why people insist on holding Quidditch matches in the current situation... Oh."

She looked at Luna.

"Hello, little girl."

"Hello, Ms. Ravenclaw."

Luna's eyes widened as she stared intently at the Ravenclaw portrait.

Scott explained, "This is Luna Lovegood, a student at Ravenclaw."

“Of course.” Ravenclaw looked Luna up and down and smiled with satisfaction. “I can tell at a glance that she is a child from our Ravenclaw House.”

"It's my pleasure."

Luna tilted her head and laughed happily.

Scott introduced Luna's unique talent to Ravenclaw, as well as the eyes that revealed it.

“Yes, because a special kind of magical creature has taken up residence in my eyes, and it helps me see things that are not commonly seen.” Luna nodded seriously. “We call them brain-wake flies.”

Ravenclaw laughed happily after hearing Luna's words.

She didn't refute Luna's words, but instead went along with them: "It's certainly possible. No wizard would dare say they truly understand the whole world. Congratulations, you're a lucky little girl. However, I suspect the little thing living in your eyes can grow further and play an even more important role."

Luna smiled even more broadly after gaining Ravenclaw's approval.

“I will try my best,” she said. “I have discovered that more powerful magic can help them grow better.”

She and Ravenclaw quickly became acquainted.

Moreover, Ravenclaw's attitude towards Luna was much kinder and gentler than his attitude towards Scott.
