So instead he turned his back to them and started on his way again, snickering as he did.
Then another young stuttering voice caught his attention. He looked at her curiously, wondering what could she possibly be frightened about and then realized "Oh..... " he started. Yeah what did he mean by that? ".... just wanna make sure you kids dont end up getting a splinter or a cut or s'mthn." he shrugged. Should he also warn them about ancient ships carrying cursed treasures?...
Nahhhh. He doesnt know what kind of ship this is anyway. Hence the exploring.
And besides what fun is there of knowing whats luriking around the corner? heh.
Phew.
"Ah, okay," that was a relief. Still, he hadn't confirmed whether there was a hand-eating monster on board. She'll just keep close to him too, just in case. It was also nice of the old dude to look out for them.

Whatever.
What he had in front of him was a dark entry that strongly reeked of rotten wood and mildew. Slowly, he pulled out his wand. Lumos! Suddenly, the interior lit up and he walked down what was a short corridor to a private bedchamber that was still untouched by teenage hands.
Another light suddenly joined his, and Vindictus turned around. "Be careful! There are OLD things. FRAGILE OLD THINGS. THINGS THAT BELONG IN MUSEUMS!" He narrowed his blue eyes on the two. "And how do you two first years even know the light spell considering it hasn't been taught yet?"
There was that man that hadn't answered her out by the lake. Peyton kept her distant from him and peered into the room. It was dark.
Then there was LIGHT!
"Awesome," she whispered. Peyton had no idea how to do that with her wand and she hadn't heard the man saying any incantation. The girl took her wand from its holster. "Light," she said.
Nothing.
She frowned at it and shook it. Light, she wanted LIGHT! She looked up at them man's wand and then back at her wand. Why wouldn't it do the same? Pfft.
What if her wand was broken? The girl gave up and held her wand against her chest. Poor broken wand. Looking up at the man with sad eyes, Peyton cocked her head to the side.
"Then why aren't they in a museum?" she asked, raising an eyebrow. If they belonged in one, why weren't they there, huh?
