SPOILER!!: replies!

SPOILER!!: Miss Newton

"Yes, that is indeed one use of the spell," Joyce said in agreement. "That particular incantation wouldn't work as its for wooden objects only, but a slight amendment and it is possible to turn fabrics back into their original material."

SPOILER!!: Mr Katharos

She was going to have to keep an eye on Mr Katharos, wasn't she? First the forgotten quill and now he looked like he could do with a nap. Well, not on her watch. He'd need to be vigilant for the next task...

SPOILER!!: Miss Swann

She welcomed questions. It meant her students were curious and eager to learn. And it was a good question too. "This type of transfiguration only works to revert objects back into their original materials and in your example, that would be silk fibres."

SPOILER!!: Miss Dantes

Tina grabbed her wand and followed the others to the practice room. She had to admit her curiosity was piqued. What were they going to do that couldn't be done in the classroom? Suddenly a scary thought occurred to her. What if she needed her notes? All she had with her was her wand, as the professor instructed. What if there was new information she needed to take down? What if she forgot the three incantations she'd already learned and didn't have her notes to remind her? The thought of making mistake after mistake in front of the whole class had her internally panicking! That's not going to happen, Tina reminded herself sternly. Even without her notes, she was pretty good at memorizing incantations. She took a deep breath and willed herself to focus on Professor Darlington's question. The first thing that came to mind was turning cloth into cotton fibers, but Hanna had already said that. She needed to come up with a new answer and fast!

The next object that Tina thought of was a chocolate frog - she had no idea why. She wasn't a big junk food eater! The more she thought about it, she imagined reverting a chocolate frog would be quite a bit like reverting the roll… or would it? A chocolate frog was made of several different components. Would it be possible to isolate one of them to revert it? Then again, the roll was made of other components besides wheat, and they were able to revert that. By that logic, it made sense that they could revert a chocolate frog into cocoa beans. She raised her hand. “What about a chocolate frog, Professor?” she said. “Perhaps there's a version of Prima Forma that could turn a chocolate frog into cocoa beans?” That answer sounded okay in her head, but now that she'd spoken, it seemed ridiculous!

And another good answer from, Miss Dantes. She definitely had the right idea. "Quite right, use a form of this spell on any kind of chocolate and you'll end up with the original beans."

SPOILER!!: Miss Awning

No attempt to answer from young Miss Awning, but that was quite alright. As long as she was paying attention and it seemed she was.

But enough with the questions for now.

Much of the space inside the practice room had been meticulously set up into what is very clearly a giant maze. This maze wasn't one of the cutesy ones made from hedges that were common at summer fates, however. She had made the walls from concrete... they were seven foot tall and foreboding. And of course, no maze was complete without obstacles and this one had its fair share of those. "Time to put your knowledge into practice now, children. Your task for the remainder of the lesson is to successfully make your way to the center of the maze." And she hadn't made it easy. She wasn't about to reveal any further secrets however... the rest was down to them. "You won't be alone inside the maze and if you find yourself getting too overwhelmed, please shoot red stars from your wand." She expected as much from a few of them, but hopefully, the majority would be just fine.

"You have thirty minutes starting now, get to it!"

Hopefully none of them were smart enough to figure out the incantation for turning concrete back into its original form..

OOC: Woop! Onto the main activity! Have your charries enter the maze! We've got about 3 days for this activity and I'll be posting hints and obstacles along the way!

"We could turn our uniforms back into the fibres around cotton seeds." Not whilst they were on, of course. She was also not sure what variation to the spell it would be, either. "Maybe Prima Forma Sylva would work. If it turns paper back to wood, it might turn clothing made of cotton back into the fibre." "Yes, that is indeed one use of the spell," Joyce said in agreement.

Blinking a couple of times, he had heared the question but nothing came to mind at the moment so he decided to stay quiet for now. She was going to have to keep an eye on Mr Katharos, wasn't she?

She wasn't fully sure of an answer as she raised her hand, tentatively. "I've got a question, Professor. If you use possibly Prima Forma Sylva on an item made of silk will it revert back to silk fibres or will it revert back to a silkworm since silk comes from silkworms?" She welcomed questions. It meant her students were curious and eager to learn. And it was a good question too.
