Scene 2: Skuttlebutt
It is a relatively normal day at their home in London. Gillyweed naturally has her nose buried in the depths of a book, while Mandrake has caught wind of a tale so intriguing he can't help but make waves. Is it just sea shanty, or could there be a trove of truth hidden beneath the surface?

Despite the nice weather outside, Gilly was curled up on the sofa in the living room, a place in the apartment she had made her sanctuary for the day. While their mother had suggested that she enjoy some fresh air, the book she had started the day prior was calling to her. With the beginning of their secondary school days on the horizon, surely the information in Magical Water Plants of the Highland Lochs would come in handy.

So far, her mind had absorbed everything the book had to say about willow toadstools, moonlite lilies, kelpies' cradle, serpentine seaweed, and frostfire ferns. If anyone happened to ask, she could easily recite numerous facts about these underwater flora and even draw diagrams of them. But that would only occur after going on a lengthy spiel about Mermaid's Veil, the elusive underwater plant she was currently reading about.

Quote:

The Mermaid's Veil is shrouded in mystery and protective magic. It is said to serve as a natural boundary, concealing the entrance to an ancient underwater cavern believed to be a sacred haven for mermaids. The silver tendrils act as a magical barrier, safeguarding the secrets of the mermaid realm from the prying eyes of the uninvited.

Ancient tales speak of mermaids weaving their songs into the very fabric of the Veil, creating an invisible symphony that resonates through the water. Only those with pure intentions are said to hear the melodic whispers

She wondered (and hoped) such a thing could be found in the depths of Hogwarts' lake.
