Alther McKellan

Library Ghost

My name is Alther Bartholomew Tiberius Sean McKellan
but you may call me Alther.


Former Ravenclaw


The ghost restrained a chuckle and bowed at the waist. "You misunderstand Ms. Ichval. Bartholomew is one of my middle names. My name is Alther Bartholomew Tiberius Sean McKellen. But you may simply call me Alther." Then he addressed the question that the girl asked, bowing his head. "I know a fair bit of magic and secrets that have been forgotten over the many years since my passing. What secrets do you desire, young miss and master?" he added, turning his head to look at Devin.

She gasped with a ringing smile and chuckle as he confessed his full, extravagant name. "My apologies...Alther." she smiled meekly with eyes alight with intrigue and curiosity accompanied the possibilities and thoughts that ran wild in her mind.
"All too many, but my main concern is spells. I am unsure if it would be old magic or simply more unknown but...do you know anything of magic that reveals one's heritage?" she squeaked, hands working into eachother in anticipation and the light feeling of guilt as having lied about what her true question was, even if the one proposed was just as significant to her.

Alther stroked his ghostly chin and racked his ancient brain, trying to decipher her question. "Hmmm, reveal one's heritage. I do not think so. Have you tried checking the stacks if you were looking for a familial heritage?" He floated half a foot off the ground as he considered Ms. von Ichval's question.

"I have, but..." her voice whispered off in act as it have her the opportunity to offer the ghost a glance invisible to Devin. Pleading the man that he would say something to urge some privacy for the two of them. The message and her real question riding on her glance.
"Is there really no one you know of who may know?"

Alther caught the young lady's furtive glance to the young man who was accompanying and understood the girl's meaning. He stroked his ghostly chin and turned to the young man. "Hm, young man, my ghostly compatriot, the Fat Friar, might know something about missing heritages. He should be doing his rounds of the Hufflepuff common room. Perhaps you could check with him, young Mr. Cloud." He turned to Phinelia. "Perhaps you will accompany me, Ms. Ichval, to the restricted section. You cannot enter, but I can. I shall search for the material you're looking for."

Devin looked at the ghost in a sort of confusion, but soon pieced together what he was saying. He looked at the ghost, preparing the answer that the ghost probably wished to her. He would agree and not think twice of that. He made it look like he was thinking about it, even though he had already made his rightful decision. He opened his mouth, thinking of the future consequences of doing this for Phinelia.

he said, casually nodding towards the ghost. He looked over to Phinelia, wondering what her reaction was going to be.

"That is, if it is okay with you," he said, turning and addressing Phinelia, the girl with flame red hair. He smiled at her with a sincere smile.

The Ravenclaw girl's simple smile of gratitude was clear in its silence how much thanks she felt towards the anxious Hufflepuff for taking the favour. Watching as he departed, she returned to the face of the ghost and his suggestion. With no hesitation in her step, she only brought with her what was already in her hands and abandoned the rest in a flying abduction of excitement and nervousness. Thoughts and visualized scenarios flashed faster than time needed for them to be inspected in depth - worries building and creating a sheen air pulsating and expanding in tenseness.
Just as the broad iron gate that read as the entrance to the Restricted Section, Phinelia finally felt her throat allowing the action of swallowing and speech. Opening her mouth tensely, she whispered hoarsely, "Err, Alther -"
"As much as this is in truth important to me...there is something more that I was hoping you could help me with." Eyes shinning with heavy words not yet spoken and begging to be asked, "The school's secrets...somewhere one could call a safe haven."

Stroking his ghostly chin, Alther took in the girl's question. A secret spot to meet, huh? This girl was indeed intriguing. "Hm, I suppose I could help a fellow Ravenclaw. You are looking for a secret safe haven, are you? There is a space that hasn't seen use in around four hundred years that used to serve as my old laboratory when I was Headmaster. I can show you where it's located and the secret way to open the passage." The ghost leaned closer to her, almost passing through her as he whispered to her. "This would have to be our secret though, and if yo want to tell someone else, you should clear it with me first."

Eyes shone with the ferocity of exploding stars as the Ravenclaw heard the old Headmaster' words. All gratitude and form of communication seemed lost and offline, her eyes and growing smile becoming the only thin to show she felt the excitement and thrill and intense fire.
"Oh thank you!" she said in high whisper, barely containing herself, "Thank you so much, sir!" if her logic had not already set itself in stone to continuously remind the girl the man before her was in fact a ghost, she would have thrown herself onto him in violently caring embrace.
"The purpose for it is for myself and my three friends - Jane Doyle, Ronyo Storm and Colton Raines. We have been working on forming a sort of alliance to protect the school. To protect the students."

Alther inclined his head to the girl and floated away from the entrance to the Restricted Section, since the girl had made her true intentions known. They wanted a little club house to play in, Alther figured the girl meant. Well, he would share his old laboratory with them. He figured, since it hadn't seen use in forever and he could checkup on them anytime he wanted, it couldn't hurt. Plus, the only ghosts who knew about this place were the ones older than him. And most of them didn't even talk about it. Alther motioned with his ghostly hand. "Follow me then, Ms. Ichval. I'll lead you to where my laboratory is concealed."

He swooped over the study area, heading towards the exit to the Library. "Follow me, Ms. Ichval!" he called out as he floated by. Then he swept through the wall and out to the third floor.

It had been a long, long day. As if the workload from her core classes wasn’t enough, her two electives were making themselves known with plenty of work for each. Granted, Hildy did more than most. In her effort to gain as much knowledge and experience as she could, she would scour the library for information on each new thing that was taught. What exactly she was looking for was hard to say, but she wanted to know everything that she could about each topic. Most topics. That weren’t Astronomy. Charms had its purposes, she supposed. But she would be damned if she ended up in a situation where a simple charm would have saved her only to be lost because she hadn’t practiced enough.

Mountains of books around her, she flipped through one, taking furious notes. She imagined that she must look somewhat like her cousin at the moment. Of course Chase would be in his glory, WAS in his glory, when surrounded by books. He would have been leaning back, feet on the table, totally absorbed in the ink on the pages of the dusty tomes. Hildy was dissecting, coarsely. Ripping through subjects, figuratively of course, trying to pull out anything that could be of use to her.

Looking around, she wondered where Chase was. She still had to talk to him about getting them to Hogsmeade that night. Hildy certainly didn’t know the passageways, but she had it on good information that her cousin had paid off a seventh year when he was much younger and was granted the blessed information. Hildy wanted to get into the dueling range and really try out her spells. She had heard that a dueling club would be starting at Hogwarts, which and she and Belle in a tizzy, but she hadn’t heard much about it so far. Hopefully it was just getting started. Because Hildy knew that if she had to practice until she bled, she was going to be a Dueling Master.

Devin walked into the library, bent on skipping ahead in his Transfiguration book. He had been practicing his Transfiguration skills secretly during his nights here at Hogwarts. He has high hopes for himself in that class, for he was probably the best of his grade at the concentration based magic. It seemed to him as if everyone wanted to be duelers or some other exciting occupation, such as an Auror, but not him. He was bent on becoming a master of Transfiguration...and there was only one way to truly achieve that goal...and that is to become an Animagus. He had given the idea a good amount of thought and he decided that he would give it a try. He knew the process to become one was arduous and nearly impossible, but he was up for the task. He wanted to do the impossible. He wanted to accomplish something that his family had yet to ever see. That was him...that is what he was going to become.

As soon, as he turned the corner however, he brought his blue-eyed gaze down on a girl that he had become familiar with, but never acquainted to. An unusual thing that being. Well, maybe he could go a start a conversation with her, for if she was going to be around Annabelle all the time like he knew she would, he would definitely have to get to know her as well. He walked up to her, carefully drawing out his words in his mind.

"Hildegard, do you know what the homework for DADA is? It seems that I have forgotten to copy it down," he asked her, making very casual conversation nonetheless. He sat down across from her waiting for her answer. Surprisingly enough, he actually did want to know the homework, for he was too mad in class to even think about listening to anything. Defense Against the Dark Arts was his worst class and that was apparent to everyone. It was no secret anymore. Especially after his utter failure to perform Glacius.

Hildy blinked quickly as she looked up, the idea of someone coming over to make casual conversation still a little foreign to her. And seeing that it was Devin had thrown her for a bit of a loop. During her first year, before things had really spun out of control, she had a small crush on the handsome young man. But as she faded into the background, the rest of the world moved on without her. Now he was involved with Belle, her best friend. Which Hildy was happy for. She held no ill will. Frankly she couldn’t imagine being involved with someone now. She had thought her grandmothers solution to keep the kids safe was extreme, but she did understand the thinking behind it.

If she made friends with the wrong person, someone that was an instrument of whoever was after her, if her trust was exploited at a vulnerable moment, she might be seeing her mother again soon. Snapping back to reality she stammered and turned to sift through her bag. ”Um….Sure…I mean…Let me see…” Pulling out her sheaf of parchment notes from Defense Against the Dark Arts she pointed to the note she made at the end. “Just some reading and practice of the Freezing Charm.”

As she spoke she remembered that Devin had a less than successful attempt of the Charm. Not that he was the only one, but he seemed to take it hard. She had no kind of success like Belle, but she was sure that after a few days of practice she would be right at the top of her class. ”Um,” she started tentatively, ”After I was done with my other work, I was going to go practice.” Before Belle and I sneak out tonight. She didn’t know if Belle had told Devin that they were planning on sneaking to Hogsmeade that night. Devin seemed to be that perfect student and generally a good guy. She wasn’t sure how he would feel about them breaking rules.

”If you want, I mean, …I’m sure Belle will come with us…We could all go and … you know, practice together.”

Hildy felt awkward inviting him to join her, especially since he was Belle’s boyfriend…thing. But still, she needed to practice and so did she. He was being friendly; it was only polite for her to reciprocate in some way. And she certainly wouldn’t mind spending some time with Devin. She knew that she should be careful who she associated with, but she had a hard time believing that Devin could be associated with anyone insidious.

Motioning to the seat across from her, she offered, ”Care to join me?” She was thrilled to have her best friend back, so if Belle and Devin were dating, it would be a good idea to be friends with him as well.
