Frowning for just a moment, Kurumi began to pack her things up and was about to say thank you when she decided to just throw caution to the wind and ask.

"Professor, I actually have a question, if that is alright," she said as she approached him, dusting off her robes a bit from all the sitting on the ground. "When we try to use the magic hidden in runes, we need out wands assist us." Well, that had been her experience so far at least, using a wand first to cast a spell on the rune or the rune and wand were used together at the same time to accomplish whatever it was they were trying to do. "Is the principle behind wandless magic somehow related to runes? Like...can a wizard harness the power of a rune without needing their wand or even the rune itself?"

"Of course Miss Hollingberry." Oliver waved and smiled at the students leaving the room and then turned his attention to the Prefect. He had just opened his mouth to comment when she continued on.

"We're actually going to be covering this later in the term." He grinned at her. "So many witches and wizards think it's the wand that makes the wizard or witch. Not true of course. The magic runs in our blood and the wand is the medium which perfoms the actual act. So it is with runes. Of course there is a little more to it." Did that help?
