Professor Knox had also mentioned that they could use some optional Charms, right? Ones that they have learned before. Beezus really thought that mostly older students such as herself would be the only ones able to cast it but in her utmost surprise, there were a whole lot others! They sure did their homework over the summer, that was for sure.

And that was a good thing. Yep, perfect.

Anyhow, the part of the floor she was standing on was VERY filthy. Ew. What was that....like blood that had on the cement or something. Merlin, the loss of house elves wasn't a joke. But there wasn't much they can do about it except to try and fill in the responsibilities they had abandoned. So, Beezus crouched down and ran her wand over the grime on the floor. "Tergeo. Tergeo. Tergeo." Yep, it really looked like blood that had dried off. From the animals, perhaps? She saw spiders on Ella and Mo earlier so maybe. Why though? The spiders were dying because the place was so dirty? Well.....too much of everything can kill after all.
