Holding up his lantern, Jared did so himself. The moment he stepped into the forest, it seemed as if someone had shut out all civilization. Inside, all was an eerie sort of quiet, even though each sound came off magnified. But they had just entered, and the trees weren't thick. Not yet.

"We'll stop here, for a bit," he said. "This clearing is known as the Impenetrable Clearing." The Impenetrable Clearing of Death, actually. It occurred to him that the actual Latin name sounded for the place sounded much fancier. "As the stories go, this part of the Forest was once home to a tribe of warriors. 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?"
What an odd night. A ghost was leading them in the Forbidden Forest for what seemed to be know important reason. K-Lee had stopped freaking out about being in the forest now, though she'd have prefered to be in there in the middle of the day.

Coming into the clearing, K-Lee looked around. Did the professor jsut say that there was a curse? Better not have been. Listening to the question, K-Lee answered.

"It could have been because the Baron entered first, but would the curse drop just because a ghost went in first? But you said it was a myth, so does it actually exist? Couldn't the myth have originally been no muggles can enter, maybe from a muggle-repellent charm, and then the myth over the years changed." K-Lee said.

She really hoped the curse didn't exist. Curses didn't equal good.
