Aurora stood and stared at the scroll. So this was Defense Against The Dark Arts? WHAT? This wasn't
teaching! Why couldn't Lord Borr just appoint another teacher rather than insisting on doing it himself? She surveyed the room to see if anyone else had noticed.
SPOILER!!: Lord Borr's letter
Dear Defense Against the Dark Art Students,
Whether you know it or not, I am the busiest and single most important person in your pea-sized lives right now. Running the country and being present in your class physically, unfortunately, is not a viable option for anyone. Who would run the country?? HOWEVER, Lord Borr is there in spirit! I have put together an assignment for you and do not dally and dilly and not get it finished. Make a commitment! Start your year off right! You'll be better for it!
Though there is very little reason to be trained to fight dark arts with Lord Borr watching over you, it's still important to remain in shape. Just look at me! I run a mile everyday that my schedules allows! Since I'm not there to hold class, you should have AMPLE amounts of time to keep fit.
Listed below you'll find your first DADA assignment.
Yours truly,
Lord Berty Borr
Order of Merlin, First Class
Acting Minister of Magic
