Knights of Walpurgis
When it comes to creatures of the dark, the Lethifold is indeed one of the most famous and mysterious.
Almost all the students thought it would appear in the third game. But some students had different opinions.
"We might not be able to catch the Lethifold."
I also learned from Newt Lethifold's Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them that he never kept a groundbat as a pet.
I think it's more likely a maze.
It is home to dark creatures such as the Acromantula, the Red Cap, zombies, Bundimun, Boggart, and Dementors.
The Champion need to defeat them and then find the trophy that will ultimately grant them victory.
"That's certainly possible; the trophy might even be the Portkey."
After obtaining it, the Champion was teleported directly to the podium to receive the reward of 1000 Galleons.
The contents of these discussions were eventually transcribed into a book by a classmate and given to Harry.
"But these are all just guesses!"
I'm not saying these things are bad.
But didn't Mr. Weasley say before that he would give the Champion game information a month in advance?
But today is already the 30th, and in just one more day it will be June.
"And we have our exams in the first week of June," Harry said, quickly flipping through the materials in his hands.
Beside the documents were placed a crystal ball, Ancient Runes (a stone tablet engraved with Runes), two parchments with seven letters and a handprint written on them respectively, and Hedwig was idly preening her feathers—all props used for Divination.
Yes, Hedwig is also a Divination tool.
This is called bird physiognomy, a type of Divination that uses the flight and calls of birds for Divination.
The parchment with a hand on it is related to palmistry.
It uses the lines on the palm to Divination a person's character, lifespan, and fortune.
It originated in India and China about three thousand years ago, and later spread widely to the West, permeating Greece and Rome culture.
The other parchment is related to the Seven-Character Divination, another form of Divination.
However, he learned these Divination, which were far beyond his age, not just because he wanted to Divination the outcome of the competition.
Also, because the time for Voldemort's resurrection—July—is getting closer and closer.
He had assumed that Voldemort would be resurrected on the night between April 30th and May 1st.
Even Ron couldn't help but have some reservations about this. "Harry."
Perhaps Ryan is right; your Third Eye is only useful in battle.
Dumbledore said that Voldemort would be resurrected in July.
The time you Divination is way too far off.
In my opinion, Harry, you'd better just wait.
Maybe Professor McGonagall will tell you what the competition is about tomorrow night!
If you just can't sit still.
Why don't you go and study the Patronus Charm?
It is remarkably effective against dark creatures.
Your mother and Professor Snape both know how to do it.
Harry shook his head. "Never mind. Mom seems to be getting closer to Snape lately."
It is said that he would run to Spinner's End — Snape's house—whenever he had time.
He even spent less time with Meiling.
I saw her carrying a book last time, titled "Excellent Wizards Start with Names."
Harry looked like he'd just swallowed a fly.
It's clear that his mother has even skipped the thought of having a child with Snape and gone straight to naming the child.
"It can't be that bad," Ron said, saying something he himself didn't believe.
"That's unlikely."
"I haven't seen Mrs. Potter buy any baby supplies," Ginny reassured her.
Harry chuckled. "Why not?"
Can't she write Spinner's End as her address?
She almost never spends the night at Hogwarts anymore.
Sirius even caused a scene at school because of this!
If it weren't for Phineas constantly asking Regulus to arrange a marriage for him...
Sirius might even live at Hogwarts! Just to keep an eye on my mom.
It was 8 o'clock, two hours after Harry and the others had just finished their conversation.
After watching tonight's episode of "Man vs. Wild," Kate activated the TV's monitoring function (it wasn't in the bathroom).
I came across Harry and the others' conversation.
She squinted. "Harry Potter, could this be Divination?"
I remember that Voldemort was resurrected only after the exams, during the summer vacation.
"It's because you, Ryan, struck Voldemort with lightning while he was casting a spell."
"Kate, you must be mistaken."
Ryan said the time was the first week of June, around the time of our exams.
I'm sure I'm not mistaken.
Ryan intervened because Luna didn't want Voldemort to be resurrected and to avoid disturbing her exams.
"I was jealous about it for over a month!" Penelope said confidently.
Penelope, you're right.
Kate, you guessed right.
If Voldemort hadn't been interfered with by external forces, he would indeed have been resurrected in the first week of June.
However, if we combine this with his original plan regarding the power of the wizards who weren't killed by his subordinates, the resurrection would take place on the Walpurgis Night —the night between April 30th and May 1st each year.
"Knights of Walpurgis?"
I only knew that this was a former name of the Death Eaters.
"But I never associated it with Walpurgis Night," Kate exclaimed.
If I remember correctly.
The latter half of Walpurgis Night, May 1st is an ancient festival for the Druidism people of Britain, later changed to the feast day of Saint Walpurga.
However, because Christians consider Druidism to be a heresy, the number of Druidism has been decreasing, and their god is considered to be the devil, so the rituals have been moved to the night.
They would offer sacrifices at the sacred mountain and burn bonfires in May, thus giving rise to the superstitious legend that the devil gathered at Brocken Mountain. The name of the devout Walpurgis became associated with the devil, and 'Walpurgis Night' became synonymous with the devil's carnival. Penelope began recalling the contents of * Britain Folklore—The Mysterious Druidism *.
You're not mistaken.
In fact, the ancestors of Pure-blood wizard in Britain are all related to the Druidism.
Voldemort, posing as a descendant of Slytherin, gathered a large number of Pure-blood under the guise of the Druidism.
The Knights of Walpurgis were established, and in the early stages they were considered to be quite upright.
I don't need to elaborate on what happened next.
It began to degenerate when Voldemort was in his fifth year.
It became the precursor to the Death Eaters.
It became a dark force within Hogwarts.
The composition has also become more complex.
The weak seek refuge, the ambitious crave prestige, and the inherently cruel are drawn to a leader who can teach them a higher form of cruelty.
"Fifth grade again?"
"I remember James Potter also started becoming a good student in fifth grade, right?" Kate curled her lip in disdain.
Penelope's focus was even stranger.
"Young people really do love knights. Even Voldemort is no exception." She glanced at Ryan. "And you are too."
The 'knight-errant' you admire is also a figure of knighthood in China culture, isn't he?
