The humans were a good distance away from the Lake and the Inferius number was dwindling. Bartholomew managed to pack some more punches until there was no more to pack. The Inferius (much to Bartholomew's surprise) were going in his direction. Inferius that that been at the Hogwarts School. Bartholomew braced himself for the attack. It never came. Bartholomew's tentacles rested in the Black Lake while the Inferius took their places back into the waters. It was all over. From the gold coming he had seen the Inferius pick up it became evident this was all about the treasure discovered months ago. It was all over.

One utterly exhausted Squid was relieved. One utterly exhausted Squid cast one last look at the humans. One utterly exhausted Squid slowly sank beneath the waters. This utterly exhausted Squid was going to take a long sleep. This could be done now that Hogwarts was saved.
