I read that there was a Pukwudgie living thee named William, and that some think he's the same William as in the story. Doyou think he is?"

The topic was then switched back to her original intentions, with the headmistress giving her permission to do exactly what she wanted. "Thank you headmistress," Kitty said, beaming happily. "I do understand that the Statute is probably the most controversial subject among in the magical world and I know most people don't agree with me, because if they did then there wouldn't be a Statute. So I promise to be respectful of other people's opinions and debate passionately but not unreasonably." In her opinion that was a pretty good Ravenclaw style speech.

Speaking of which... She held out a pin to the headmistress. "Would you like one?"

Her eyes appeared to light up a bit at how highly the Ravenclaw was speaking about Ilvermorny. Regina was quite glad that, even with a large ocean separating them, that the reputation of her former school was widely known. She could not deny the girl's valid statements about the place. "Yes, the school is quite democratic due to the school being part-founded by a No-Maj. Given the history of Wizarding America, I find that to be quite fascinating."

There was a short pause in her speech as she recalled her own sorting, back when she was much younger. Standing in the entrance hall, with the Gordian Knot on the centre of the floor, was still a vivid memory for her. "Since you are a Ravenclaw, Horned Serpent might be a likely choice. Though, the two sortings are very different from each other. The sorting selection at Ilvermorny goes much deeper than Hogwarts, so there is a good possibility of being placed in any of the houses." She remembered three of the four wooden statues reacting to her: the Horned Serpents glowing forehead, the roar of the Wampus, and the beating wings of the Thunderbird.

Kitty's question about the infamous Pukwudgie was want she was not certain of. There were a number of Pukwudgies that lived and worked at Ilvermorny. She recalled there being one named William, though he didn't appear to be that old. "I am not sure if the original William is still living, my dear. If he was, he'd be nearly five hundred years old. There is a chance, though I wouldn't be surprised if any Pukwudgie at the school today named William was kin to the original William."

Approving of the girl's understanding on the touchiness of the subject and how she should approach others about it, the headmistress said no more to the prefect on that regard. She knew that the girl was mature enough to understand that not everyone was going to have the same thoughts she had on the subject. Regina personally saw that there needed to be a Statute to keep wizards and witches in line to an extent, though she did believe that No-Majs had rights. "Thank you, Miss Valentine," she said, taking the pin she was holding.
