Ravenclaw 5th Year~

"Professor, I hope you have not forgot about me, it has been at least a month since I last attended you class.... I am ashamed to say. But I have no idea where or what to catch up on, if that is was you wish me to do. Please aid me in this so that I might aid you in knowing where I should start again. This being sincerely done, I hope for you to allow me to yet again appologize for the inconvenience, and will leave it at that.

A sincere student of yours,
Trompeur

Ravenclaw 5th Year~ Trompeur

I will answer just and true just for you. . .

How do see yourself when you graduate Hogwarts ?
Full of knowledge and skill that even The Greay Lady herself would deem noteworthy. In other words, I wish to learn and absorb all possible, I will be neither part of the D.A. or Death Eaters.
Is there a particular branch that you will work into ?
That is a question I have answering myself, I would have to evaluate and look over all of my possibilities, So I really don't know.
Which wizard or witch is your greatest inspiration ?
Luna Lovegood, with her ease yet wit. But also Severus Snape, with his ability to hide his true intentions and his sure passion.
Is there a particular event that you love the most ?
One that is strong in my mind is when Draco is drastically shattered in his mind in fulfilling You Knows Who's plan to kill Dumbledore, and Harry walkis in on him crying in the bathroom and Draco is lying there after being hit with SectumSempra. It's just serene to me. That is one of my favorite curses. I feel Draco's pain.
Which one greatly repulses you ?
Oh blimey, that's easy. And event that greatly repulses me is when Ginny and Harry start kissing in the Room of Requirement. Personally, Ginny is just not on my favorites list. And as screwed up as it sounds, I'm not a fan of Harry either. But it is just rediculous and unimportant in my mind, them being together. That's all of that.
How do you feel about ''History of Magic'' ?
I like History indeed. I think that if your learning something you should start from the beginning and get the whole jist of it. For example, the Muggle A. Hitler, you cannot just say that he was a German Nazi who tried to take over the world and kill Jews. That description is just an abomintation to all. You must go into Hows and Whys and Whats. History needs to be learned to better improve mistakes that were done to then be properly done the next time. History is like a story being told or written, It all adds up to what will come.

I enjoyed your questions Professor. I hope to do all possible in the right manner in these future weeks. I am all in understanding with any ideas suggested. Till later, enjoy my answers ^_^ Professor.

"I would like to learn about the founding of the British Minstry of Magic and about the first one ever founded, Professor Éternelle."

...Slytherin, 3rd Year

She listened to all the students, admiring their passion and the quick-thinking of their answers. ''Those are all very good points indeed, subjects that I'd love to talk about of course !'' Desiree modestly clapped her hands, praising. ''The concealment of magic, hiding it from Muggles is really an international effort. Muggles have depicted fairies, unicorns, dragons and whatnot as imaginary creatures. Work of fiction. It is all thanks to the International Confederation of Wizards, a governing body who oversees the various councils and ministries, who passed the International Code of Wizarding Secrecy (Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them) in 1692. Avid Muggles historians will notice that it is the same year that the Salem WitchesTrials started. A sad event that we'll study later, even though the victims were entirely non-magical but is a real precursor to what could happen these modern days if magic was ever discovered by Muggles.'' she took a pause, waving her wand, and made pieces of chalk scribble things on the board.

Wizard's Council - Ministry of Magic (1600's)- International Confederation of Wizards

''This resumes the enforcing laws of our world. The Wizard's Council is what preceded our Ministry, I suspect in the 1000's. You can compare it to a druidic elder council. It also is the equivalent of the Wizengamot nowadays. And so, with this, the *ICoW debated on how would they conceal everything and which part would take more consideration. Since Muggles already have a fear of magic, the unknown in general, it is strange how they were oblivious from the start. Governments had the role to create the illusion that magic and all that attach to it had never existed outside of imagination.''

- International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy, Clause 73, year 1750 -
Each wizarding governing body will be responsible for the concealment, care and control of all magical beasts, beings and spirits dwelling within its territory's borders. Should any such creature cause harm to, or draw the notice of, the Muggle community, that nation's wizarding governing body will be subject to discipline by the International Confederation of Wizards

''Of course, this is only one clause but you can easily guess that it also applies to spells, wizards in general etc. in previous clauses or later additions.'' she completed. ''You can find these in your Care of Magical Creatures textbook and also read about the period before the Secrecy Code in your A History of Magic. A bloody past indeed that we will eventually hit. Are there any interventions or other suggestions of subjects ? Let's not forget that I've already permitted a free-time period while we wait for your other classmates.''

Lena

Lena entered the classroom and sat down at one of the desks. Noticing there was a questionnaire to be answered, she got a quill and parchment from her bag, read the questions and started to write down the answers. A few times she had to dig deep into her memory to and remember what she knew about the history of magic. After completing answering all the questions, she stood up and gave her answers to Professor Éternelle.

How do you see yourself when you graduate Hogwarts?
When I graduate Hogwarts, I see myself studying dragons or studying about aurors.

Is there a particular branch you will work into?
In the future, I’d like to have a dragon related career or I’d like to become an auror.

Which wizard or witch is your greatest inspiration?
I’m not sure. Maybe Albus Dumbledore, perhaps? He really is inspiring.. Everything he’s done and all.

Is there a particular event that you love the most?
There are many that I love. A few of them would be when Quidditch was invented and when Hogwarts was founded. I really love learning about the four founders and how they created the school over a thousand years ago.

Which one greatly repulse you?
Again, there are so many. They can be quite cruel and unjust events that am I not sure which one I hate most. One would have to be the time in 1997 when the Muggle-Born Registration Commission was founded. They treated muggle-borns very badly, for example imprisoning them.

How do you feel about History of Magic?
I believe that history of magic is a very interesting and important subject. Learning and knowing about the past, what happened and how the wizarding community evolved.

Daemon drew out a quill and ink, settling into a seat in the front of the class. History of magic was a class he was particularly interested in. Who didn't like hearing about Goblin's caving in each others skulls? He smiled to himself, remembering some art work his father had hung up in old house that Daemon had inherited, then dipped his quill into the ink, writing slow on the Parchment.
