"Now, I doubt you have heard of the Dremuni Plant yet," Professor Phoenix said once all veils had been lifted, "for it only recently has been introduced to the curriculum. Fact is, when handled irresponsibly, the damage could be beyond repair. I hope that is enough of a warning for you," she said, her voice unnaturally hard.
"So, what does the Dremuni Plant do?" she asked the class. "It produces a poison, that's what it does. This toxic substance is a white powder that falls from the Dremuni's webs," she explained, cautiously prodding one of the candy-floss-spider-webs from which a cloud of dust appeared.
"See? The substance is so tiny that, in contact with your skin, it will sink in and paralyse your muscles, which is not nice and why, at all costs, you must avoid touching it directly. If you inhale it by accident, I'm sure you understand the consequences," she said, narrowing her eyes. "Death," Professor Phoenix said needlessly. "Slow and painful."
"What could be possibly need this plant for? Any ideas?"
