Funny thing, Kamran found himself utterly unsurprised. If anything, he supposed this was - for now at least - turning out better than he'd hoped, the fact they'd received any answers at all. Assuming, of course, that it was not simply a charming little prank.

He let out a long exhale, and looked from the poltergeist to the students, and then to his colleagues. Jingling softly the whole while, of course. "Right," he said, nodding at Javier. No doubt he had an inkling where this was going. "I, for one, want this sorted as soon as possible so..." Nobody be alarmed by the muggle horror film vibes for a moment here. "We'll split up. Professor Hernandez, why don't you go and get a head start on this potion. Peeves can help you with directions." Yes, yes, he knew what an absurd statement that was, but every wayward, troublesome, and/or chaos-driven soul in this school deserved a shot at redemption.

Even pesky little poltergeists.

Kamran looked now towards the students. "If you want to help with the potion, stick with Professor Hernandez. I'm sure he'll appreciate extra eyes on Peeves." He himself glanced towards the poltergeist only briefly before looking back at them all. "Some of your other professors and I will be heading into the Forest to get this book. If you're feeling up to it - and inclined towards good behaviour - you may join us. Otherwise, you might be better off sticking with Professor Hernandez."

Merlin, don't let him regret that. But, in this instance, several heads (and wands) were likely to be beneficial. Kamran did at least know that the Sphinx's lair was not all that difficult to reach, and that the path was unlikely to lead anyone into danger. Still. Nothing could be guaranteed in the Forest, especially with a train of students a little too eager to explore it.

"If that's all, we may as well get going now."
