It seemed super difficult, and she would much rather do more things like riding flying horses like last year.
"Sure. Double ward." Yep. Where were the runes again again? Following Ella's gaze, she finally located to the left of the woman. Clearly, Alice hadn't heard her state the location before. "So.. the weak spot. The angle, like Alec said. Identifying each rune feels like too much effort. Is that Fehu?"
The seventh year jabbed a finger at the angle rune, taking a wild guess. Or no? Was it Algiz? And the rune next to it looked like an ice cream cone.
Sander craned his neck as he studied the runes again.
Yep...Quidditch Captain was right about that. The angle rune was Fehu.
"
Um.....I agree with you, Alice. the rune that forms the angle is Fehu. Everyone, I think we just the broke the double ward into two simple wards," Sander looked over at his fellow seventh years, smiling from ear to ear.
Yes even the simple things like this was cause for celebration...at least that's what Sander thought.
Whew...one step down....a whole bunch more to go.
Sander rubbed his chin deep in thought as he tried applying the process he vaguely remembered Professor Botros teaching them in their last lesson.
"[b]Now that we have two simple wards, we need to find the weak spot of first simple ward right? That would be ......aargghh!....we have six runes in the first ward. That means there are two runes in the middle that could possibly be the first weak spot. It's either Jera or Ingwaz...but which one is it? Which would be easier to break first?[b]" Sander turned to ask the others hoping they'd know the answer.
He knew that there was a logical way of figuring that part out, but logical thinking wasn't always his forte.
