Professor Trelawney's outburst before leaving had truly stunned all the staff and students at Hogwarts, overturning everyone's previous impression of the old fraud.
No one had imagined that someone was actually pulling the strings behind all this—and that it had not even been particularly difficult to arrange.
Professor Trelawney herself was an experienced fraud. She had spent decades pretending to be mysterious and talking people into things. In Albert's more tactful words, she was a master of language.
With Liquid Luck and a complete script to help her, it was hardly strange for her to perform beyond expectations.
The previous successful example had been Harry Potter.
Because of this, Albert had been surprised to discover that he had triggered a quest called "Moment of Glory."
Unfortunately, the quest was not easy to complete. Albert would soon graduate from Hogwarts and had little time left to finish it, so much would depend on luck. Though Albert always claimed that he was very lucky, he was not actually willing to leave things to chance.
What puzzled Albert more was that Potter had not triggered a similar quest when he openly confronted Fudge during his hearing.
After this incident, the prophecy Professor Trelawney had left behind before departing was once again dug out from the rubbish heap of history.
Aside from her recent prophecy that Potter would be banned from playing Quidditch by the toad, the second prophecy—that she herself would be dismissed by the toad—had also come true.
The next prophecy was this: Headmaster Dumbledore would hire a Divination professor who was not human to serve at Hogwarts.
That prophecy would be verified within the next few days. No one would have to wait long. And if the third prophecy also came true...
Would the rest of Trelawney's prophecies gradually come true
