Or what can you find out to share and discuss? Crack a book kids, hopefully you brought it today.
Use the book? Was that allowed? Mo flipped a few pages forward and backwards in search of the bit about amulets, but again... everyone was essentially saying things that were very similar. Mo glanced down at the book, hoping for some tidbit of information that might be useful.

"Professor, I always thought an amulet was specifically like a charm or pendent that you would wear, usually around your neck. Just based on what the book says and what other people are saying, an amulet can really be any object intended to magically protect the holder from harm. That's actually a really broad definition - loads of jewelry could be amulets, but not all amulets are worn as jewelry."
