"You mean things like underground caverns, or hidden cities? Buried treasure?" His eyes glinted as the gears turned in his head. Who knew what was down there? "Secret, hidden tunnels for transportation out of the school grounds?" Now, he knew that wouldn't have been very safe. If outsiders could enter school grounds through a tunnel in the lake, that would cause a lot of security problems. However, if it was a secret tunnel no one could locate, then it would certainly be a rumor, then, wouldn't it? Quote:

What ever it was, she hoped it was exciting. Quote:

Lakes can have stuff like that too right? Though pirates rarely sail on lakes, especially on the Hogwarts lake... "Well I don't know about hidden cities." He shrugged. "But there are rumours about caverns annd maybe even treasure down there." The real question was treasure for WHO? He looked at William and smirked. Quote:

Originally Posted by MysteriesOfFate Carigan didn't really know what else could be in the lake besides creatures... maybe "Plants? There would be underwater plants surely!" Carigan ventured as a guess. Quote:
Originally Posted by Squishy ♥ Amelia was thoughtful now as she tried to think of an answer. She raised her hand. "Plant life? Such as algae and the like." Algae liked to live in water. Oooh. "And maybe things like underground caverns!" That would be sooo cool to explore. "Right. Really, the simplest things rumoured to be beneath the lake are water plants." Bentley would be so proud.

Originally Posted by Kimalia Let's see there's Squids, merpeople, Moaning Myrtle occasionally.. But what else? Plants? That sure sounded like a unique answer. What about.. raising hand once again. "There is Chamber of Secrets that is are thought to be below." "Right!" Extreme nod. "The Chamber is rumoured to be underneath the lake." Quote:
Originally Posted by iBeJenn Selena thought about the question carefully. Other than creatures under the lake? "Plants, homes, and treasure?" Selena offered. Because those things weren't creatures... and there was, according to people, a pirate ship here... so there was probably treasure right? Oh wait. "And the Slytherin Common Room," she added. Because... it was under the lake. "...And the Slytherin Common Room." He expected the snakes to know. Though, really the common room was underneath the lake and not in it, but it worked. Quote:

When he wasn't here. Ahem. "Spirits of pirates occupied it until one point they made it to the castle." Careful not to drift off in her tale-telling, and making her best not to look around at the firsties to see what her story was making to their wittle faces, Louisa went on, "That could be a proof of haunted realms deep down. Maybe more haunted boats or ships are down there." Uh-huh. He could ask Professor Vindictus, he wouldn't disagree with Louisa. Blink. "...Oh yes, I read about that.." And recently too. "There very well could be haunted realms." Good point! Quote:

In reality he was plotting out his part of the lesson, all to eager to just dive right in already.
"They're rather indifferent to it, I think," he answered after a thoughtful, almost drowsy moment. "Merpeople have been known to come to the surface to converse with humans or attend Ministry functions, but as we all know, their language just sounds like screeches above ground."
He let out a little shrug and pushed himself up into a standing position, dusting some grass off his bum as he walked back to stand beside Dash at the front. "They can handle the sunlight but as they don't need it for any biological functions, it's probably just viewed as superfluous to them."
Will looked to Dash and nodded, handing the reigns back to him. They would be discussing merpeople in more detail soon enough. Hmm, maybe later he would even be able to ask a merperson what they thought of the sun? Yeaaaah. Whatever the man had said. Dash just nodded, listening just slightly. It made sense. Merpeople. Not like he would understand them more than that. Quote:

Vlim snorted with a silent peal of laughter when the proffesor mentioned that some people thought the founders had actually created the lake, but composed herself almost immediately, forcing herself to think that it was a valid question. Some people might be Muggleborn and not know about Hogwarts.
Vlimia knew this question off by heart. Her parents had told her both of the answers numerous times. She raised her hand as eagerly as before, and replied "The Slytherin common room is beneath the lake, accessed through an entrance in the school dungeons. Many people think their common room is actually in the Dungeons, but it is not. The Chamber of Secrets is also believed to be beneath the lake, but those are merely rumours." Vlim answered, hoping it was a sufficient answer. She also wondered when they were going to get on with Care of Magical Creatures, because, although she liked History, she wanted to see the Magical Creatures. She took a great interest in them, and had already signed up for the Magical Creatures Sanctuary thing.
What?..."You're correct to a point. The Slytherin common room is located in the dungeons, however it is also underneath the lake." Ergo, the dungeons were underneath the lake as well. Quote:
Originally Posted by Frankie "well obviosly there is lants but there is also the slytherin common room. Isn't there sort of buliding down there or more like ruins?" autumn raisedher hand and spoke. Quote:
Originally Posted by fanficfanatict Under the lake? Well the Slytherin Common Room was rumored to be under the lake but that could not be what he was referring to. The most he could be referring to was some kind of plant life or maybe like a sunken boat or something. Of course, she could not prove that there was a boat under the lake... eh... well... ugh Common Room it was.
Selina rose her hand and said, "The rumor is that the Slytherin Common Room is under the black lake." Which would explain the Slytherin CRABBY attitude. Heh CRAB-by attitude. That was punny. "Right, yes." That was the rumour. Quote:
Originally Posted by lazykitty So, something in the lake besides creatures? " Various water plants, rocks, a shipwreck maybe?" Sky answered. 'Cause, you know, the lake had been used for travel… "Shipwrecks? Maybe..interesting.." He hadn't heard of that but it made sense. Quote:
Originally Posted by ballantd Melanie looked out at the lake and thought. What would someone hide in a lake?
"Perhaps there are magical artifacts that were put in the lake for safe-keeping, or maybe there are secret passages into Hogwarts." The lake certainly looked ominous enough to be hiding something. "Could be." He doubted it. Largely because people would be attacked before they had the chance to enter. ---------------
"So, plants, rocks, caverns...maybe hidden kingdoms...treasures..and apparently the Slytherin Common Room and the Chamber of Secrets." Yeah. The lake had many rumours associated with it. "Most of these rumours have actually been proven to be true." So, you know. The scary stuff that hid in the lake, could actually be true.
Just a liittle bit more history to go through. Scabior cleared his through before he began talking once more. "Now so far we've been talking about the lake and what's in it." All that good stuff. "But important events have also taken place by and around the lake. Two major events in particular. Does anyone know of these events? And please, only say one per person." And he wasn't talking about little things like campfires either.
