The moment you enter the classroom, you realize that the interior is.... huge. Twice the size it usually is, no doubt. There are no chairs, though there is an assortment of cushions - soft and squishy, not-so-soft and not-so-squishy, take your pick - on the floor.
Professor Markovic opens the door so that the students can file in, and then stands to a side, the usual small-but-warm smile playing around her lips.

Di's eyes lit up. Discussion, that she both enjoyed and loved. "Remember, the legends are products of muggle minds," she said. "Muggles have a tendency to exaggerate where magic or the unknown is concerned. Elements that spice up a tale are often incorporated into legends to make them more dramatic or larger-than-life."
Still bright-eyed, Di continued to listen to the students as they discussed and aired their views. "All of you have some pretty good points there," she said, giving a little nod of her head. "The original Quileute tribe lived in an era much like the current one, but only in the sense that magic caused suspicion and fear, in muggles. The original leader - and founder - of the tribe did happen to be an animagi; his animagus form being, unsurprisingly, a wolf. This is one of the factors that caused the wolf to become the - the and not a - symbol of strength in the tribe, to the point where some members even consider it a sacred creature."
"Traditionally, since then, the leader of the Quileute tribe has been someone that has certain qualities, one of them being that he or she has the same animagus form as the original leader. It's clear, though, that not everyone can have that animagus form and so the members that do not... say, 'improvise.' In Miss Gibbins's words, by magic. Potions, transfiguration spells, and so on. It is customary for the Quileute tribe to transform themselves at important ceremonies and on the battlefield, and it isn't uncommon for them to keep wolves - of course, in muggle territories such as La Push, this has been less possible since the establishment of the Statue of Secrecy - and this has given rise to a number of muggle myths and legends, some completely ridiculous."
Frowwwnn.
"Summing up, the wolf is central to the Quileute tradition to the point where they go to great lengths to be able to acquire its form and characteristics and that said, it shouldn't be much of a surprise that the Quileute runes - now Quileute only by name, to be honest. The majority of the current Quileute members hardly ever use them - focus on them. The older generations of the tribe consisted of hunters, craftsmen and warriors. Can anyone guess what they used the runes for?"
"I believe that they used runes for safety or luck while hunting and fighting" She said "Or they can use it to help gain suscess in the ventures of hunting and for wisdom an knowledge"

Kurumi had been trying to make the connection between runes and wolf people ever since the discussion began, but nothing outside of what other had already said was sticking with her. Protection, sure, but was it really all that simple? "Maybe, when they are in wolf form it is hard to tell each other apart within the tribe and from other wolves, so runes are used as a sort of name tag?" She had to stop herself from saying doggie tag. That would have been rude.

Eh, what can tribesmen use Runes for? Maybe get them out of maze like caves?
Which reminds him of another story...
"Maybe like other Native Americans, they use runes to record accounts of their heroic feats, or to honor their dead, you know like rune carvings on tombstones."

Vashti's first thought as to what these wolf people would do with runes probably didn't have much to do with hunting, crafting, or fighting, but hey, it was worth a shot guessing, right? And even if she was wrong, her second thought had to do with the craftsmen, so she'd hopefully still be correct somehow. "Maybe when the people were in their wolf animagus form, they could use runes to communicate, since they couldn't talk to each other normally like a human would," she said after raising her hand. "And since animagi retain the ability to think like a human, they'd be able to understand what the runes meant and what the other person - wolf - was trying to say." That made sense, right? "Or maybe, for the craftsmen, they'd decorate whatever it was they were making with a certain rune or runes to bring various things like protection, prosperity, good luck, and all that, to whoever was going to buy and use their product."

Dianna raised her hand, "Maybe they used it for recording and maybe they believed it to be some kind of charm that will keep them away from bad spirits.." Dianna said as she lowered her hand. Well it was worth a shot.

Di blinked. Tags? That reminded her of... oh, forget it. "The Quileute has other means of identification and communication," she said, giving Misses Hollingberry and Greenwell half a smile. "But I can tell you've both been doing some thinking. Take an extra point each for your houses."

Out-of-the-box, once again. Di liked that. "The Quileute use their native language for records, but it isn't uncommon for them to honour the dead like you've mentioned. Take an extra point."

Indeed. Di nodded. "The then Quileute tribe focused on the hunt, building and the battlefield so the runes, in turn, focus on similar things. There are five Quileute runes in total: the Rune of Battle, the Rune of Protection, the Rune of the Hunter, the Rune of the Craftsman, and the Blank Rune. I said earlier that the runes are linked to light and colour... for each rune, a colour that the Quileute believed corresponded to it. Can anyone guess the colour linked to the Rune of Battle?"

Blinkblink. Di... eyed the Champion. Then she said, quiet slowly, "I suppose I should give you two points for unbelievably massive creativity."
So she did.

Yeah see, Fletcher had soooo been right in answering that question. So right. He was so so smart. Only...
He was only getting points for creativity? Did that mean he was wrong, then? What was massive creativtiy, come to think of it. Was it better than regular creativity? Huhhhhhh?
Fletcher squinted at the teacher and tried to work out her last response to him while she, meanwhile, turned back to the other students. Well la de la de dah. He would answer this new question with a much smarter response.
"It's gotta be a maroonish, uby-ish, deep scarletty blood red, Professor," the Champion answered with a mannod. "Cuz Battles result in death and spilled blood and duh, blood is red. Unless you're a vampire. Cuz then you don't have blood."
It was necessary to point that out, he thought.

"Crimson or a shade of red?" Kurumi asked. "It is the color of blood and also represents fire and is associated with power and importance."
She giggled at the Hufflepuff boy's answer. He was an amusing character to be sure.

"Bright Red" She said as she thought about why. "During battle blodd is shed from both the enemies and allies. When blood touches air it turns a bright red. That is why it is associated with RED"

Blink.
"I suppose you don't, then," Di said, thoughtfully. She had yet to ask a vampire if they didn't have blood, or just had... blood of a different kind. Secretive bunch, vampires. They didn't let on much about themselves and they didn't care about stories that made them into all sorts of monsters.

Back to the topic, then.
"It's a bright shade of red," Di agreed. "Red is known to signify importance, aggression, viciousness, anger, hatred and victory... all things central to the battlefield. The Rune of the Battle is known to the Quileute tribe as the Red Wolf." Di flicked her wand, causing a small, hard rune to appear in front of each student, suspended in midair.
She picked the rune that had appeared in front of herself, and placed it on one outstretched palm. The rune began to glow brightly, the moment a coloured beam of light hit it. "Properly invoked Quileute runes react to light. This one, as you can tell, gleams a dazzling red." Di found the sight rather gorgeous, but she tucked the rune under her cushion to continue.
"The Rune of Protection... can anyone guess the colour linked to it?"

Eh, no. Evelyn was still in the thought process of animagi versus metamorphmagi that she missed the next question. Something about something obviously, but who cares? It wasn’t like she was going to use this information in the future. Her job that she wanted to pursue had nothing to do with runes. And if it did well it didn’t matter. They had textbook stuff on this stuff.
However, as the answers continued, the Slytherin’s gaze wandered around the room. Josh was not there, and of course, Boyfriend Stealer wasn’t there either. Taking a deep breath, she sighed and looked back to the front of the room, staring at the rune that suddenly appeared in front of her face. But the one the Professor held… that WAS a bright red. It reminded her of Josh.
Aw Josh…
Going onto the next rune though, Evelyn finally came back to reality and raised a brow. Rune of Protection? What kind of color symbolized protection? "Blue? I suppose..." she muttered, half lazily raising her hand to answer before it dropped back in her lap. Some shield spells had that color to it soooo, why not?

"Gold!!!" Fletcher randomly picked a color, drawing inspiration from the room around him and from his own Hufflepuff robes. "Gold cuz it's like.... locks and keys and stuff... and if you have a buncha gold you can afford to hire a bodyguard to protect you."
That right thar is what ya call LOGIC. He reached a hand out for his floating red rune. Ooooh. Shiny.

"Green! Cuz one of the runes for protection is green" he replied. Was it? He wasnt that sure, but he just wanted Slytherin represented somewhere in there y'know?

Kurumi looked at cookie hater. Beat her to it, but Kurumi had also been thinking about blue. "I think blue as well," she said a little defeated. "I've read that the pharaohs of ancient Egypt wore blue for protection against evil." What all a pack of wolves needed protecting from was another story. Hunters?

Di had to smile at all the answers. Blue, gold, green... house colours. "Blue is correct," she said. "The Rune of Protection, or the Blue Wolf." One had to say, the names sounded a lot more imposing - even if longer - in the actual language. "Historically, blue has been one of the most commonly used colours, in terms of 'protection."
This time round, a blue-ish rune came to rest next to the red rune already in front of each student. "This rune gleams a gorgeous azure in the light," Di said, demonstrating by holding a rune up so that the light could hit it. The rune began to glow a lovely, soft blue, in result. She tucked it under her cushion before continuing.
"Can anyone guess the colour of the Rune of the Crasftsman or the Rune of the Builder?"
"Hmm, I'm not sure. Perhaps green signifying life cause this rune aids the builder to produce tools that can help in cooking or protecting or possibly protecting the tribe from harsh weather or even enmies depeding on what it is that craftsman bulds. And all of these things have one thing in coomon; they help perserve the life of the tribe because whether it be cooking utensils, a home, a home, or weapons or tools, they are all used to help the tribe thrive.", Chloe responded raising her hand high.

Oooooohhhh....pretty shinny runes..and now there were two! Did they get to keep these? That would be pretty awesome if they did.
"Perhaps a shade of brown? Brown is found in earth, wood, and stone which are all used by craftsmen."
Kurumi reached out and poke one of her floating runes and made it spin in the air sending blue sparkles all around. Oooooh...shinny...

Staring at the blue rune, Evelyn tilted her head to the side some, before leaning back on the cushion. With her gaze flickering in between the blue and red rune, her concentration on the professor and what she was saying was starting to dwindle. Seemed like that was happening a lot lately.
However, she did hear the next rune. Craftsman or builder? Well, she had to agree with whoever mention brown and green. But Evelyn always thought of a craftsman or builder to be working with tools and such. Like...those hammer things she saw in Muggle Studies class. "Perhaps silver? Or grey. Whichever describes the color more." she said, her attention finally focused on the professor.
Or at least the general area of the front of the class. Glowing runes can be quite the distraction.
This was more confusing than she though. Let's see red and then blue so maybe.. "Is it green?" Dianna said as she raised her hand. "..Because erm.. because it symbolizes nature and uh prosperity. Soo I guess this rune can help them in becoming more prosper in building..things..to help the uh tribe.." she said as she lowered her hand. Agh. She was stammering..
Emmy thought hard - what in the world would you symbolise Craft and Building with?!
"Erm... Gold or yellow maybe? Because that could be interpreted as bringing good luck with trading...?" Maybe? Just a guess...
"Hmm, I'm not sure. Perhaps green signifying life cause this rune aids the builder to produce tools that can help in cooking or protecting or possibly protecting the tribe from harsh weather or even enmies depeding on what it is that craftsman bulds.

"Perhaps a shade of brown? Brown is found in earth, wood, and stone which are all used by craftsmen."
Kurumi reached out and poke one of her floating runes and made it spin in the air sending blue sparkles all around. Oooooh...shinny...
Listening to all the answers in silence, Di gave a little nod at Kurumi's. "Miss Hollingberry has it correct," she said cheerfully. "The main material used by the original Quileute tribe to build was wood, and hence the Rune of the Craftsman is brown."
Once again, a rune appeared in front of each student. "This rune's illumination is a pale golden-brown."
Soo. Next rune. "The Rune of the Hunter. Let's see who can guess the colour, this time round."

Oooooh! More shinny things to look at! Oh right, another question. Hmmm...wasn't there a color called hunter green? She could have sworn her brothers had been arguing once over whether a t-shirt was forest green or hunter green. Kurumi never did learn what the difference was.
"Green? Hunters are often in forests...and those are green...with trees," she said adding on the last bit to make it sound a little more educated.
