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.

OOC: There are individual participation points for this portion. Have fun. Be crazy. Don't let your charries die.

"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?"

The entire class tonight made Violet's mood change completely. From extremely excited to terrified to death! Violet did not expect to be entering the Forbidden Forest tonight, she did not expect to actually see the Bloody Baron guiding them, nor she did she want to be in the Forest at all, but as long as the Professor was telling them that they'd be alright, that was enough to make Violet calm down.

The entire time they were walking through the Forest Violet's arm was clutched to Selina's not letting go the entire time. Only when they got to the trees that were so clustered together she had to let go of Selina's arm, for the moment, but when they were through Violet was close by Selina once again. As the Professor told them the story about the warriors Violet slowly raised their hand,"Professor, does it mean that it's told to prevent muggles from finding Hogwarts?" Violet smiled and shrugged her shoulders.
