Perhaps he was just lucky and had made a new friend!
With his rune pouch, weighing less and less, Patroclus wondered how long to go till he was free?
NIIICE RED! Branches caaaame down, the keyhole of the laaaaaaaaast door visible through them. Final riddle!
Natural development.
Jera or Dagaz? WillowTHEMAN waiiiited!

Pick me up, he read silently. "Guess theres no sense in not doing as I'm told," Simon mused aloud with a one-armed shrug before bending down and picking up the large box carefully curious as to what was inside.
The moment the box had touched the Gryffindor's hand, a branch appeared out of nowhere, gently picked him up and rose into the air. It set him down, outside the maze. Cushions, a desk and a chalkboard had been placed here. The desk contained several boxes of chocolate.
The chalkboard read:
Congratulations! You are now outside the maze! Please make yourself comfortable as you wait for your classmates to join you. You may help yourself to some chocolate.
The branch lowered the box the boy had picked up next to him. Then it waaaaved to him and disappeared.

Oh.
I have two elements.
She stared at the floor trrrrrrrrrying to remember. Oh. THINK HEAD THINK.
Erm..urmm... -twitches-
Wait.. was it Dagaz? She knew Dagaz was fire.. but did it have a second element?
Uncertainly, she inserted the rune inside the door. Jangling the left over pieces in the pouch she frowned and pawed at the ground.
Please be right?
OOH! Pretty red had fitted in the correct ruuune! One of the branches waaaaved to her, as all of them disappeared out of sight. Light flowed into the roofless enclosure once more, as the door swung open.
The last door was juuuust around the corner.

Second dooooOooor for this one! The letters that appeared on the floor this time round, read...
Natural development.
Jera or Dagaz? The tree waaaaited!

He chose the jera rune, though he wasn't so sure. He got ready to run away if it was the wrong answer and if the tree decided to hit him again. Yeah, they were good now and blah blah, but really, who could trust the Whomping Willow exactly?
OOOH! Correct rune! The branches rose into the air to unblock the door that had now swung open. Behind it, could be seen a long tunnel that had a big box located at the end. The said box read...
Pick me up. Quote:

She was tired of thinking of a way to get out she stood there for a minute recollecting on her previous turns and then started to go south the was the way out she knew it. She Took her first right and found a wall. Not what she wanted she turned around and saw one of the students run past. she didnt see who it was so she just continued her path. Around the corner it seemed but it was much more turns than that she saw it. A DOOR! she appoarched and waited for the tree and the words to appear
Last dOOOoorr! Branches came down, a keyhole peeking out through them. The letters on the floor read...
My gemstone is a red.
Jera or Dagaz? The treee waited!

As the tree patted her on the back she smiled widely at him.
"Thanks,Mr. Tree", she giggled.
Going trough the door she noticed there was another turn.
Where to go?! Right or left?!
Well last time she's gone right then now it ws up for the left way.
Last dooOOOoor for PRETTY GREEN! Branches gently came down, a keyhole peeking out through them. The letters on the floor read...
There are greater harvests ahead.
Jera or Dagaz? The treee waaaaited!

False Dawns?
The Blonde tilted her head in thought for a short time span. Hmm? Dagaz or Jera? Well she knew that Dagaz was all about the days and dawn. So far that one was the one that was more likely to be correct. Oh yes! It was the converse yes? That the time is not right for a change. Preserve and have trust in your abilities.
"Its Dagaz, the Preserve for Dagaz" the sixteen year old stated happy that she had finally got the answer. Err now what was it she was meant to do? The sixth year eyed the keyhole in the branches and then the two runes. She picked up the Dagaz rune and placed it into the hole.
Now just to wait.
PRETTY GREEN had fitted in the correct rune. One of the branches reached out to give her a verrryyy gentle pat on the back, and then all of them rose into the air and disappeared out of sight.
The door swung open, and light streamed freely into the enclosure once more.

Correeect! One of the branches reached out to give SMALL BLUE a veryyy gentle pat on the back. Then all of them rose into the air and disappeared out of sight. Light flooded into the roofless enclosure once more.
The door swung open so that SMALL BLUUUE could go throoooooooouuuuuuuuugh.

Seeing the branches of the tree come down once again she stopped and looked for the words on the floor. Oh there they were. Latent talents. Well crud, what did that mean?
Thinking about the characteristics of both runes she decided that the one she needed here was Jera. It has the characteristics of success in endeavours, fruition of plans. Good spirits. Just rewards for past efforts. Inventiveness, talent or skill. Great reward to those who work with their hands or on the land.
So she pulled out the Jera rune and placed it in the keyhole. Now, would the door open for her?
OOOH! Correct rune! The branches rose into the air to unblock the door that had now swung open. Behind it, could be seen a long tunnel that had a big box located at the end. The said box read...

Poke.
Nudge.
Kick.
Hmmm….

For a moment, the tree stayed out of sight, completely unsure. STRANGE GREEN.... made its branches want to twitch. Then, deciding it had had enough of all these... strangnessES, a branch appeared out of nowhere and gave the girl a twitchy!odd!gooooawayyy GOODBYE wave.
NO MORE STRANGE GREEN! w0000000000000000t!
Anddd the moment STRANGE GREEN kicked the (poor) box, she was transported outside the maze and into a classroom of sorts. Cushions, a desk and a chalkboard had been placed here. The desk contained several boxes of chocolate.
The chalkboard read:
Congratulations! You are now outside the maze! Please make yourself comfortable as you wait for your classmates to join you. You may help yourself to some chocolate.
The box the girl had picked up, rested next to her.

and fried her brains because she came up with one fact about the goddess that she remembered hearing. She was the Goddess of Fertility. And that little fact made it easier for Brittany to guess the answer. The Jera Rune was strongly connected with Fertility So she had her answer right? She reached in the back and took out the
JERA Symbol and placed it in the key whole.
"Wish me Luck Willie." She said aloud to the tree. Oh Goodness she was now talking to a tree. She really needed to get out of there

Twelve.

SAD tree? Maybe. PROBABLY. But all the same... last doooOOOr for BAD GREEN! Branches came down, a keyhole peeking out through them. The letters on the floor read...
