Wait what? Snort. "Interesting is hardly the word to describe that monstrosity Lottie's got. Dunno why she's so keen to kill her brain cells." Reading massive books for lack of any other options. Surely it was a slow torture the Professors were exacting but eh, nothing else to do and no other way to go without getting looks for being a Gryffindor about the whole thing.

She flipped a few pages further into her book before hearing that Simon kid read some eerie poem thing....about a 5 month winter? The Gryffindor turned in her seat to watch him as he went on but the more he spoke was the more confused she felt. "A witch? 5 month winter?" Hadn't she JUST asked how they'd know if they were cursed? This seemed legit. How many months had it been snowing now? Maybe it was almost over and they'd be able to leave early for their distress?

At the mention of runes on the side of the page Lex got up, gesturing for Lottie and Cassia to do the same before walking over to the boys by the Codex. "What runes? And does it say anything more about the witch...? Or how they finally unfroze the winter?" That was the most important part of it all, no?

Simon glanced up to see the Gryffindor Prefect heading over there way. Oh? She was asking about the runes now? "Well. They're here on the right hand side of the image. They're kind of hard to see but if you squint a little it helps," he said and then scanned over the text again. After rereading it again, he glanced up to the Gryffindor Prefect and pointed at the page that he and Ethan had been examining.

"It doesn't really say how they saved winter; however, it does say that the bind runes - which I'm assuming are the marks on the right hand side of the wall- were carved by Merlin himself to seal her curse away still remain on innermost chamber of the Star Temple of Avalon." He blinked his blue eyes. Did that mean La Fay's curse had escaped? And did that also mean an impromptu field trip to the Star Temple of Avalon? He doubted the second thought that crossed his mind because there was absolutely no way of getting out of the school at the moment. Or was there a top secret way that no one was informing the students about? Hmmmm...?!

Anyway, he had a question to ask. "Does that mean that possibly someone's unleashed La Fay's curse? Who would want to do that? And why? Does someone have a grudge against the school?" he asked, glancing up at both Professors again with a concerned glance. Who would want to do that AND why would they want to freeze Hogwarts of all places?
