SPOILER!!: Normal Text
The Pied Piper used to be a story you told ickle bitty babies to warn them away from men with strange musical instruments but it’s gotten all too real with the hiring of a certain Professor Morgan. We didn’t fail to see the woman feed the darling little students, adequately stuffing them with cookies and tea and the promise of hot chocolate before leading them onto the grounds and over to a willow that whomps on the odd occasion—and in the freezing cold nonetheless. One might ask what the students ever did to her but the more accurate question proves to be ‘why hasn’t she been paid well enough?’. Eyes on you Headmistress Truebridge. We’ve all been told the story and the Piper is here to collect.

The fiend might have gotten her way too given the aggressive nature of the tree, made even more aggressive in this harsh winter that is unyielding, were it not for the work of a BRAVE Gryffindor; one Arista Royal. Yes, for years we’ve chided those in red for their outlandish chivalry but it’s finally come in handy, just ask Penelope Wright, the Ravenclaw that nearly wasn’t.

Will the Whomping Willow stop its pouring of the snow and smacking of the students? We doubt this. The most we can hope is that the students take something away from this experience. When an overly enthusiastic woman offers hot chocolate if you follow her to a dangerous tree, what do we say children?
