Irrational? Well, he shrugged. "Remember, the idea came from the Ministry. The Ministry isn't exactly filled with the most rational people out there." Noooot that he was bashing the Ministry.

Much.


"Anyways, just by looking on the list we can see that the train has stopped three times since it was created." Maybe there was nothing strange at all and it was completely normal. Maybe. "The first time was probably because the invading Dementors cause the conductor to faint." Or something. That didn't matter. "Any guesses toward why the second crash happened?"

OOC:The lesson will continue in approximately 24 hours.


Sierra nodded. Snow assisting the train in the middle of a wreck seemed legit. She just wasn't alive back then, so she wouldn't be able to say for sure. She looked around the room as the others chimed in, and she raised her eyebrows when Scabior said something to Vivi about the Ministry.

...but the Ministry was filled some really awesome people, too. Like Sierra's father, for instance. ...and, wasn't Scabior dating one of the department heads? Hmph. Sounded like somebody was a little full of himself.

...and, why that second train crash happened?

But that had to wait for the man was now on the list of what was supposed to be the historical background of the magical train. Beezus nodded. Muggles, yes, it was constructed by those non-magic folk. And yes, it had broken down at least three times. Dementors on the first time with Dementors feeling a bit too friendly and decided to visit the students before they arrive at school. But really, Beatrice knew the Azkaban guards were looking for Sirius Black that time.

When Scabior asked for guesses on the second time the train broke, the Ravenclaw couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. The answer to that one was mentioned by one of their peers already. Quickly, she put her hand up.

"Professor, I believe Sierra Greigoth had already given a starting answer to that. As she said, during the journey to the school, it suddenly started snowing. It wasn't a usual occurrence because it was September," Snow in September? Yeah, that was just weird. "The train then ran into a snow bank, and got stuck and the students were forced to continue their way to Hogwarts on foot." Right Sierra? "..And in connection to what West Odessa said Professor, it was indeed assumed, uhh..well, actually it was proven thereafter that the wreckage had something to do with Lord Voldemortist killing a Professor and," *Head-shaking* "...a powerful book? I can't really remember. It was also reported that a dementor also made an appearance during that time."

Yes? Yes? She DID read Hogwarts, A History, quite a few times actually.


Seemed right.

"I'm going to agree with those two," she said, raising her hand then gesturing in the West and Beezus's direction. "Could have been a powerful wizard, or it could have been the snow. Or both." One would think, though, if it had been just the snow, a magical train would have been equipped to handle that.

Again, she raised her eyebrows. Powerful wizard? Dead professor? Mysterious book?

Yeah. She agreed with all of the above being the answer. Ravvie Girl seemed to know what she was talking about, at least.
