"How come he isn't here yet? D'you guys think he went to get MORE centaurs?" You know, in the forest they weren't allowed to go into. Was he the only one who found it super cool that they could be THIS close to it? If they wanted they could totally stick one foot in and forever be able to say they entered the Forbidden Forest. Did no one see how many ways his quill could spin that?? No? Just him? Sigh.

The targets didn't grab his attention, not with the forest right over there so that bit of epicness was lost on him but in all fairness, the boy could only be excited about so many things before he burst.

Priorities.

"The stars of Orion are bright tonight," he greeted while shifting his balance on all four legs as he stood. "I am Thereos and I shall be instructing you not on how to care for my kind for we do not require wizards to groom nor feed us. Instead I shall bestow upon you the rare gift of understanding some of our customs so that you may come to respect my kind."

Respect. Something that Hogwarts had lacked in recent years towards those dwelling in the Forbidden Forest and had now paid the consequences.

Thereos dark eyes swept over the students before continuing.

"To begin, what DO you know of centaurs?"

Archery seemed like a dangerous thing to let Hogwarts students do. But, then again, they could do a lot of damage with magic so he supposed archery was fine. Besides, he was excited for whatever they were going to do with that. Oliver opened his mouth to agree with Charlotte when they were joined by Blaise. He grinned at the addition of another friend.

MORE CENTAURS? Olly certainly hoped so. He peered into the forest, trying to spot something - anything - between the trees. And finally, there came a centaur. One centaur. More would have been cooler but even just one was awesome. Olly staaared. Cool.

Right. Question answering. People had already mentioned most of the things he knew about centaurs, but he didn't want to stay silent. So Olly raised his hand and said the first thing that popped into his mind.

"You're fast." Faster than humans. Since they were half horse and all.
