Right. That was a question for another time. Right NOW though, she had to answer. Scarlett raised her hand.

"Centaurs are real, professor, and muggles don't think they exist. I think they mainly exist in Greek mythology, and sometimes they have only two legs and walk around like humans just with...a goat bottom. Or something. Which is obviously different than the centaurs we actually have in our world," she explained. She'd certainly never heard of a centaur with only two hind legs. That would be just WEIRD. How could you walk around like that?! You'd be off balance all the time!

Hadley leaned over in Scarlett's direction. "Satyrs," she whispered, helpfully. "Half man, half goats were called satyrs." Because Greek mythology was a secret passion of hers. So much so, she couldn't resist helping the Hufflepuff out. Hads gave herself a congratulatory nod for that, and sat back again, ready to listen to Sir Hirsch continue his lesson.
