Wouldn't it be interesting to know the backstory of these coins?"

Flipping the coin in the air a few times, he then set it aside and cleared his throat. "But these coins are just the latest mysterious objects to be discovered within school grounds. It never ceases to amaze me just how many extraordinary and mysterious things have happened within these very walls, and how many magical artifacts have been found - and just within the last thirty years!" From the day it was founded, through the days of Tom Riddle and Harry Potter and through the Book of Mysteria all the way to the present, Hogwarts had always been a fun and scary place.

"I want you to think back on any location or object within this school. It can be a hallway, a dormitory, a mirror, anything. Then tell me something extraordinary that happened at that place or with that object. Let's see what we come up with!"



OOC: Class will continue in 24 hours!
Bel watched the coin situation right there and chewed on her lip, listening hard. A location or oblject.... something... extraordinary?

....... yeah Bel knew basically nothing about Hogwarts history. The Australian girl might have been here for a few years now but even if she wasn't hopeless at this stuff (she was), Hogwarts hadn't been part of her knowledge base whatsoever. Basically she'd come into the school as if she were muggleborn. Nooo cluuuueee.

She listened to other answers (Max's mad her smile) and then put her own hand up. "I don't know about past stuff, professor, but what if we're doing things right now that will end up in history books in a hundred years time and we don't even know it? That would be pretty cool and extraordinary I think. So its kind of like.... we have endless possibilities to be part of history every day, anywhere at all."

Yep. That was about all she had to offer. A bit sheepishly, she put her hand down again, hoping she'd not get in trouble for not exactly giving an answer.
