Professor Descoteaux was going to kill them all.
... And he'd garnered the assistance of the Bloddy Baron.
Arya had decided all of this while practicing the new spell and glaring at Chicken Girl. Going into the forest? At night?? Totally gonna kill them all and dump their bodies were the duels were held her first term. More than once she'd considered sneaking out of the lesson before they went into the forest, she'd learned one new spell which was more than enough for one lesson. She'd even found the courage to do so until the ghost appeared out of the forest.
Too late now.
Lantern in one hand and wand in the other, she made sure to stick with the group as they entered and traveled further into the creepy forest. She didn't have much time to wonder if the ghost was trying to lose them in the forest, (hewasgoingsofast!) distracted by the spiders and all the fears the suddenly arose at their sight and her overactive imagination.
When the entered the clearing
probably filled with giant spiders waiting to feed on them she made certain to keep close to Destiny, something she'd been doing the entire trip through the forest.
Had to offer
someone to the spiders before she escaped.

Enemies wiped it out, but the 'curse' of the tribe hangs over the clearing where their councils occurred - no human or creature can enter, and those that attempt to defy the curse and enter, are injured or die mysterious deaths."
"But all of us could enter, and quite easily. What do you think this tells us about this myth?"
Hearing the professor's speech, and keeping an eye out for
raccoons any sudden movements, she moved closer to Destiny, sending more glares to the girl. She DEFIANTLY was going to be sacrificed now.
"Maybe it's cause we have the Bloody Baron with us." She raised her lantern hand.
"He entered first. Its possible his passage made it easy for us to enter." AND because they HAD someone to sacrifice if it came to that.
"That or we'll die or become mysteriously injured later because the curse isn't instant."
She sent a quick glare to Destiny.
