Oh well, all the more reason to learn to do things for yourself! And so she turned her attention back to the task at hand.

The Ashwinders were fascinating creatures--Violet had never seen one live before, only in pictures. They were beautiful, fiery serpents, sort of like the mythical salamanders in legends. She hurried to follow a couple of them into the maze before she lost sight of them.


The Ashwinder Violet followed took its time winding through the maze, cautiously checking around every third corner. Finally it came to a nice end in its path. Coiling itself and checking its surroundings, it laid two eggs. Then after a deliberate pause, laid a third egg and disintegrated, leaving the three eggs on a little pillow of ash.

SPOILER!!: Claudine

Not until her own Ashwinder paused did she actually size up the second one then looked about to see Bella.

“Hi, Bella.” Claudine grinned. “Seems as though these two a stare off.” A short one, though, which was a good thing because the seventh year could hardly wait to collect the eggs. She followed slowly, continuing in the direction she and the Ashwinder were already headed, clutching the jar with both hands to her chest.


Not long after the stare off, Claudine's Ashwinder found a nice corner in the maze, curled up, and lay four whole eggs before disintegrating away.


SPOILER!!: Evan
He had to admit, he was very impressed with the Ashwinder's ability to avoid all dead ends and make it through nearly the entire maze. It had him momentarily wondering if this particular one had gotten lucky, or if they were a creature that had a higher IQ as a whole. He briefly considered asking Professor Paszek, but he figured it was also a question he could follow up on later. Especially considering his ashwinder was stopping and appeared to be ready to lay her eggs.

Watching it turn to ash as it laid it's eggs... it felt rather sad to him. He watched the spot, also eying the vine nest warily before pointing his wand at the each egg. "Glacius!" Once that portion of the task was complete, he tentatively scooted closer to the vine nest in order to grab the eggs to put them in his jar.


The eggs froze, no longer threatening to start a fire in the paddock after his spell.
