"Excuse me, but what exactly is Quidditch?" she asked the girl, Eris, carefully.
Should Eris' containment of herself and the force of gravity not have been against it, the young witch's jaw may have ligit fallen to the ground. "Quiddtich?" she repeated for a moment taking in the fact that the girl actually said she didn't know it. "You know, Quidditch...7 players...ride on brooms...throw quaffle."
Not seeing any registering in the girl's face, Eris decided to continue with a friendly smile. "It's a game...you see...3 'chasers' grab a ball and throw it around trying to get it through a goal witch a keeper guards. During this...two scary balls called 'bludgers' are trying to knock them off their brooms which two beaters have bats to help deflect them. Then to end the game, a seeker chases a tiny fast little ball and once he catches it a match is over...so it could last for days if you have two bad seekers."
She could go on for ages, but decided to stop to see if she understood so far.
