Maybe it was the minister himself who came up with that false fact, just so he could "fix" it, be glorified, and be re-elected. That was very clever. Still, all the fuzz over conserving the species wasn't clear to Eino, so he put his hand high in the air to ask a question. "Professor, are giant squids often used as Sir Bartholomew Henry was intended to, as a means of protection?" According to Bartholomew's docile nature, Eino would have never been able to guess that.

He raised both hands, speaking tentatively. He didn't want a tentacle takedown. "Sir," he said, addressing Williamson, who, after all, had told the story. "How exactly was Mr. Henry meant to have protected Hogwarts? I mean, Voldemort was extremely strong. He likely would've just killed Mr. Henry from far off before he was in danger." Well he would, right?

And something else... "I'm not meaning to be rude, but why would Godric Gryffindor's Animagus form be a squid? Wouldn't you think it would be a lion?" He just couldn't see Voldemort falling for that.
