"Obviously we are all familiar with the lake, and if you are not, well, it's right there get familiar with it- perhaps even introduce yourself to it." But not NOW because then you would be talking over him. "The lake has been a part of Hogwarts since the castle was created 1,000 years ago. Now why do you think, the founders included a lake within Hogwarts? And how do you guys think it has been used in the past?"

Included a lake? What? Wasn't the lake already there way before the founders decided that they wanted to build Hogwarts there? - Ok, well, apparently it wasn't. Huh, go figure.

"Well, maybe because they wanted the students to be exposed to other forms of life, like the giant squid and the merpeople that lived in there." She guessed "It would be a good source of learning for the students, not everything magical revolves around casting spells and brewing potions after all."

Then she thought for a while, instances that the lake was used in the past? Well, that was fairly easy, wasn't it? "One of the challenges during the Triwizard tournament of 1994 took place there, as well as it served as a dock for Dumstrang's ship during the same year." Yep, old Harry Potter's time. "and there was this pirate ship there before, uh. a couple of years ago?" She added, almost uncertainly, she didn't really know whatever happened to the ship...or why it ended up there for that matter.
