I mean, do you need to be smart and sneaky to be able to survive? 'Cause that's just AWESOME!" Ty rattled on as he approached the booth, standing on tip-toe so that he could see the pamphlets properly and make sure his squeaky voice got across to the woman and the (EEEP!) goblin there.

He had never liked goblins. They were smaller than he was - which SERIOUSLY unnerved him. >__<

Now this was one excited kid.

Kayla eyed the boy with slight amusement as he bombarded her with questions. When he had finished, she let out a small chuckle before speaking. "Breathe mate. First off the most important thing is know your curses, hexes and jinxes so paying attention in DADA is a good idea. You not only need to know how to break a curse but you need to know how to spot one as well. And yes we do look for hidden treasure and because the treasure we search for is usually over hundreds of years old a good knowledge of Ancient Runes comes in handy."

She paused for a moment to take a breath herself. "It is dangerous because most of the time the treasure is hidden miles underground so it's always a good idea to go in pairs. Not only do you have to get through the protective barriers but you are also prone to to cave ins and constantly have to work in limited lighting."

But Kayla absolutely loved the thrill of all of that. It was she has always wanted to do.

'Definitely' she said 'Are you a cursebreaker, then? What's it like?' she asked, intrigued

"Yes I am" Kayla said giving the girl a smile and taking her legs off the table. "And to answer your question, it's awesome. You get to travel all over the world and hunt for hidden treasures. Not to mention facing danger almost every time you set out." She gave the young girl a wink, "Sound like your kind of job?"

Kayla nodded her head at the girl, "Yes but not only that, you need to first find the magical treasures and then you need to know what kind of magic has been used to protect it before you can break through. Magic always leaves traces but you need to know what you are looking for."
