As the one in front caught her attention, Chloe felt both her knees buckle from the attack from an unseen assailant. Unseen but not unsmelled. Trolls. Trolls, and Chloe was on the ground with three trolls approaching.

"A little assistance, please!" Where was her club?
Three very determined trolls at that!!!

Each approached rapidly and began swinging away as if their magically created and not entirely existent lives depending on it. Now it was her turn to be the metaphoric mole that got whacked and they were having a field day with it to be sure.

Help? Sure, they'd help her to a few bruises, free of cost.

She looked around and swallowed before properly attempting to swing at the trolls again.
Would she stand there and celebrate or would she get back to troll whacking. Hint, one had the better payout as was proven by that second swing and that resulted in another puff of smoke.

It looked like she was starting to get the hang of it.


It was in watching his students now that the Headmaster truly understood that many of his students...had a lot of pent up ...well....EVERYTHING. Good grief, was Spinnet oka--no no, were the trolls Spinnet was massacring okay?? Was BOTROS okay? He'd never seen the boy so visibly give in to the physical.

Malachi watched the students, some faring better than others. First Katharos and now Kettleburn were on the floor. Bad idea. "On your feet, you two. Won't whack anything on your backs." But they'd be getting plenty themselves. Phillips may have been in for a similar fate is she hadn't managed to regain her club.

Overall, however, they were doing a good job of removing the trolls. The number had significantly decreased by the time he addressed them all.

"Get rid of the last of the trolls and gather round!" He instructed, hands back in his pockets while he waited for them to do just that.

Once the students were gathered, it was time to move on.

"Now that we've gotten a bit of practice down in ways trolls go about their destruction, let's all pause for a bit of reflection. I have two very simple questions. You can answer one, or both. From the readings I expect you've done, what do you know about trolls? Second, what makes muggle means like these clubs impractical and downright il-advised when dealing with their larger counterparts?"


OOB: Second question is up! Have your student answer either or both, whichever works for you ^^ What do they know about trolls or why clubs wouldn't be advised as the primary defense against them. I'll move the lesson on again in 24 hrs from the time of this post
