Aiden dusted himself off once he had gotten to the end of the hole.
If he was being honest, he was not surprised to find it so dark down here. How often would anyone really try to brave that tree just to get to whatever this might have been? Did the Hogwarts students use this place much? He would have to ask one of them during breakfast because this was nothing shy of strange.
Secret hiding places under killer trees. What would they think of next?
Further and further he walked with nothing but the sound of his own breathing to keep him company. After a bit, he came to a door.
Well. No other way out but there. He was not very interested in trying the tree again. The potions were on the wrong side and he was too young to be viciously mauled by a tree that knew very little about making friends.
Once at the door, Aiden tried it, pushing against it to open it up. This should be interesting.
