Oh dear. That was not good. The second year had triggered the curse, and now blisters from burns were showing up on her hands and arms. That had to be painful. "Coming, Miss Johanson!" Tiara called, while grabbing a small vial of antidote. "Here you are, drink the lot straight away."

She let the girl have a moment before addressing the incident. "The curse is triggered by magic.." Tiara peered at her notes. "You have the 7 noted, but you just did not pick up on the magic part, I suppose. No harm done, keep trying!"


After Melbourne was sorted out, Tiara continued to circle the room. Next she came to Hattie. "How are things going, Miss Paton?" she queried. A quick glance at the girl's notes made the professor's head nod in approval. At least she had a good start.


Tiara was watching Esme. She could tell the girl was trying a nonverbal spell based upon the look on the girl's face. As she was only a fourth year, Tiara wasn't sure if she could pull it off. Indeed, she looked hesitant when she reached out for the jar. But as soon as she did, her hand appeared to shake slightly.

"Miss Darcy, I think you are on the right track and your counterspell just needs to be stronger. I know nonverbals are hard, but you can do this!" It had already proven to be pretty effective, after all. "Give it another go!" Of course, that would be hard if your wand arm was shaking, but the antidote potion could wait for such a mild tremor.


"Excellent, Mister Jones!" she beamed down at the first year. "Enjoy your reward! But try not to eat it all in one go, alright?" she quipped, winking playfully.


Hmm. Azura looked about ready to perform nonverbal magic, if her stance was any indication. The girl was only in her second year, so Tiara wasn't exactly sure how great that would go. "How is it going, Miss Kennedy?"
