The only discussions that I will allow in my class are discussions that promote a clearer understanding of, and grasp on, defensive magic and techniques."

She paused, before speaking again. "You are all here to learn defense against the dark arts. What are the dark arts? Is there a rigid definition? Could something be or not be a "dark" art, depending on how and why it is used? What do you understand?"

Willow looked to the front of the classroom and gaped at the professor. She didn't mean to snap her quill! Plus, there were a few other people who had been talking too! This class wasn't starting how she hoped it would. Raising her hand, she addressed Professor Glass.
"I interpret the Dark Arts to be spells or enchantments we may come across in our lives and have to defend ourselves against, or defeat the offensive object in question. We may also need to gain a greater understanding of the Dark Arts to prepare ourselves if we ever cross something of the sort. For example, the Unforgivable Curses, which I understand are high above most of our levels of experience." She finished.
