"You should copy that stuff down, since it relates directly to what you'll be tasked with on the field trip." He paused just long enough to hear some quills scratching away, "You'll also be having a go at harvesting a type of wand wood. Just one wand wood mind you: Rowan. You'll be looking for a Wiggentree in particular. For those of you who are familiar with the Study of Ancient Runes, you may have some idea of how one might best harvest wand wood, its similar to how you choose wood for making a rune set. Please, tell the class if you have any knowledge about this method of gathering magical wood, and if you don't know, then tell the class what you know about Rowan, and about Wiggentrees." OOC: RE: dittany, I'm mostly using the canon information for dittany, rather than being too picky about 'muggle' information where there is dittany vs false dittany and such. Canon dittany is seemingly a combination of dittany of Crete + false dittany, so that's what we're going with. Just wanted to make that clear for anyone who notices things 
So just in quick summary at this point, the field trip will consist of attempting to gather the three listed cores, and some Rowan wood. The current question is about what your character knows about harvesting wood for magical purposes, and about what they know about Rowans and magical Rowans.
Yes, people can still join in, see instructions in the first post.
Sorry this post took so long (it took me four hours to do O_O I'm out of practice) I'll start the next post in 4-6 hours.
Adelaide couldn't help but smile and give herself a mental pat on the back. He had confirmed her assumptions AND he hadn't been AS grumpy about it. If he kept moving in this direction, maybe he would move from 'grumpy' status to 'happy'. That was her new goal. To make this grumpy man smile.
Addi quickly did as she was told. Besides, one could never have too much information stored away somewhere. She didn't know much about the things being mentioned. She couldn't help but be a little confused at some of the other students answers. They were going to have to talk to trees? How did that help with anything.
