How embarrassing, Alice thought, trying to hide her injured finger behind her back.

Oh my. "That isn't right," Di said, shaking her head. "Shall I fix it, or do you want to go to the hospital wing?" It was a minor injury and Di could set it right; but just in case the student preferred a qualified healer...

"The literal meaning of fehu is cattle, which leads to its symbolic meanings of wealth and stuff," she pointed out, raising her hand carefully. Actually, she was a bit surprised she knew that.

Mia lowered her hand and placed it back into her lap. Yep she had actually read a book.

At least, it was last time I looked... she thought.

"Correct, correct," Di nodded. "Fehu, the rune of nourishment, abundance and wealth. Its symbol is the cattle because, in those times, cattle basically meant a living."

She placed a little chalkboard next to herself, and tapped it with her wand, causing words to appear on it. "Looks like the Badgers are in the lead," she said, as she proceeded to roast a marshmallow-on-a-stick. "Next we have... Raido."
