Penelope was focusing her research on chorts. She took notes on what she learned about chorts.
Maybe this cold weather was being caused by chorts. The weather was unusually cold, there was a lot of snow, and there were big storms. All of the animals had run away. Did the animals go to find a warmer place, or was there something else out there in the forest?
SPOILER!!: Mo

She heard one of the older Ravenclaws talking about eating first years if they ran out of food. They wouldn't really do that, would they? The idea of eating first years scared the first year.
"E-eat f-first years?"
Penelope tried to calm herself with positive thoughts. I will not be eaten, she told herself. I am a Ravenclaw, and I am smart. I am not overfed. If anyone will be eaten, it will be the Hufflepuffs. Not me, I am a Ravenclaw. The headmistress would not let anyone eat the first years, right?
