She unmounted from her horse, gave a gently pat and whispered to it. "I'll be back, Perseus. Would you wait for me?" And thanks to the Ehwaz rune, the horse seemed like it nodded on her words and neighed gently.

"Okay, I want you to help me with the severing charm. And since it's a tree so I think we need to do that more than once." Ava explained it to the young girl as she took out her wand. "The incantation is diffindo, and the wand movement is like this." She performed the charm to show Emmeline how it's done. "Diffindo!" She was sure that this girl could perform it because Severing charm is like a basic spell and not really difficult.

"And then once it's done.... Hmmm... I think it's best to carry the tree using locomotion charm. But let's just focus on cutting the tree first." And perhaps Ava should be the one who did locomotion charm because it's pretty advanced for a first year. "You understand what am I saying, right?" Because if not... She would teach her again.

The first year nodded when Miss Ava said that lionesses should help each other. That was why they had Houses, right? Either way, she was glad that so many older Gryffindors and other older kids were so willing to help her in lessons and stuff. She grinned back at Miss Ava and nodded, before waiting patiently to learn the spell.

"Okay," Emmeline agreed. Miss Ava didn't say how many times they'd need to do it so she would just keep going and going until it worked. She paid special attention to the demonstration of the new spell and she quickly withdrew her own wand from its holster. She practiced the wand movement by itself for a few times first, like she always did with new spells. She wasn't always so great at learning new spells right away, but she decided that it would be jinxing herself to mention that. Besides, she wanted to impress Miss Ava. She didn't understand all this locomotion charm stuff, but that was later anyway, right?

"Yup, I got it!", she assured the older girl. Turning her wand on the tree trunk, she performed the wand movement REALLY dramatically and chanted: "Diffindo! Diffindo!" It didn't even WORK on the first try, but on the second try she made a deep cut into the tree trunk! She might have been a little too enthusiastic with the wand, though, because she'd also "cut" a path across the snow and lightly into the trunk of the tree directly opposite theirs. "Oops... Sorry, Miss Ava.", she glanced fearfully up at the older Gryffindor.
