"Did she poison the spindle with a Potion? Instead of a curse? So... she'd be poisoned when she was pricked?"she said after raising her hand. This was a total wild guess here, because she still wasn't familiar with this story really even if she had picked up the gist of what other people had said. Quote:

Shrugging, Kurumi raised her hand to venture a guess. "Perhaps, Leticia Somnolens dipped the spindle into the potion, soaked it? Then, by pricking her finger on it it, the potion entered her body and blood stream.. Might have made it look more like an accident this way, as opposed to putting it in her drink." That logic was a little wonky, and she knew it, but potion theory was...Jonathan's strong suit, not hers. Quote:

She raised her hand and asked Did Leticia Somnolens use a potion made of items that couldnt be tracked to her and soak the needle on the spindle, and then tricked the Princess into touching the needle?

"She most likely used a potion and smeared it on the needle and then it took effect after the Princess pricked her finger.'' "Right!" He gave her a small nod. Just like with the Muggle story except...better. Quote:

He just stared "Yeah..." He said the word dully. Hadn't he told her that that was the hags plan? He had asked a completely different question. Quote:

Then Hollingberry piped in and said the same thing Sierra had just said. Cheater. Raising her hand again, Sierra said, "Is it similar to what I just said? That there was a poison at the tip of the spindle, and the girl was oblivious enough to touch it?" Again, what a Puffer. So trusting. "Draught of Living Death sounds good to me." She nodded a gesture toward the classmates who'd spoken up and suggested that.
...and did he just suggest to some boy that men would one day listen to commands from women?! That's what she heard, at least.
"It basically is what you just said." Good job for you Sierra, pat on the back or something. Was she expecting some sort of prize? SPOILER!!: Potion Quote:
Originally Posted by TakemetotheBurrow Wah? This had really occured? That was quite the shocker. The first year took a minute to soak that in before reaching for her notebook. Ella copied down the new information that the Professor had just given the class and then raised her hand. "Professor, I also think the spindle could have been poisened by the sleeping potion, Draught of Living Death...but if that woman wanted her dead, like really dead, wouldn't she use a different technique?" Quote:

August crossed his arms and looked at Scabior with a questioning look. Did Muggles really steal this story or did the magical community steal it from them? It would be impossible to know both sides seeing as the Muggle world didn't know there was a magical one.
Instead of retorting, the Gryffindor just took notes and listened. Raising his hand, Auggie decided to go along with it all and answer how he thought the Leticia hag-woman did it. "Professor, I sounds as if she laced the needle with a potion of sorts, probably something along the lines of the Draught of Living Death. This would explain the deep sleep." And the reason they were in a joint lesson with Potions and History of Magic. Quote:
Originally Posted by iceblossom22 Right, so the story was true. But was that actually the spindle used to kill the princess? Not that it mattered of course, what mattered now was trying to remember what her mother'd said to her about that princess person.
Raising her hand, she phrased the answer before saying it aloud. "The story says that poison was placed on the spindle, so it would probably be a potion." she smiled. It was the only way potions could tie in here anyway. "It could have ben the drought of living death."
Yeah. That. Elise wasn't good at History but fingers crossed she'd gotten it right. Quote:
Originally Posted by hpfan18 Belle was relieved that she was correct and was on the teachers good side. Then she heard the next question. "Professor i think she would aqquire a lock of her hair and then make a potion like the draught of the living death?" that was her best guess. I mean you would need to have a personal item from the person to make the potion work. And some people even knew the potion as well. Wow. "Good guesses." Or maybe they had read about it. Quote:

Laura giggled, now if the Professor was alive in 100 years it would maybe be a different story but well she wasn't going to say that to him or Lafay.
Laura smiled as she answered the next question. "Professor she probably thought about using it to cut of the Princesses head but then decided that would be too messy and so she just decided to put poison on the needle and then lure the Princess there and then let the princess prick herself with the needle." That was all Laura was going to say. Alright young Puff. "You keep telling yourself that." Scabior shrugged. Quote:

''Maybe it is not being stolen or taken from either side, professor.'' she said ''Perhaps people from both muggle and wizarding worlds saw it happen and they told it with their own views.'' Yup, did not that make sense?
Whatever...
Quietly she listened to everyone's answer. Draught of Living Death.
She snorted.
''Did not this hag lady attempt to kill her? I think the needle might be cursed with DARK MAGIC!!! Draught of Living Death do not kill even though it has the word 'death' in it.''
He shook his head. "No. Muggles stole it." End of story. "Or rather readapted the story. It has happened many times before." He wasn't even going to listen to anyone telling him about Wizards taking the story from Muggles. That made absolutely no sense. The only reason that Muggles knew of their 'magic' was because of idiotic Wizarding slips.
"And that's a good theory." He nodded. ------- "Some of you-" He pointed to the students he was sure had mentioned the name of the potion. "-Guessed the exact potion that Leticia did soak the spindle in. The Draught of Living Death." That was correct. He looked over at Hecate for a bit, before turning back to the class. "Others, noticed the flaw in this." He pointed to those two students. "Like I said, Leticia wanted to kill the Princess, so can any idea why she would use this sleeping draught instead?"
