The fortress, that haunting melody, and now the promise of a creature awaiting them inside—it was a blend of mystery and thrill that suited him perfectly. His mind raced with possibilities, and he shot a quick, knowing grin at Bryony, who had already picked up on the clue within the song.

"Professor, is it... well, I can definitely tell you what it isn't," he said, raising his hand as his eyes flicked between the fortress and the professor. "Certainly no banshee in there, as they aren't exactly known for carrying a tune like that. They're more known for their fatal screams than anything that sounds... well, inviting." He leaned forward a little as he continued. "And I've gotta say, the fortress is definitely giving off vampire vibes. Though I don't think vampires commonly lure folks in through song unless they're a Blodwyn Bludd type—and that's more of a rare case, isn't it?"

Though he wasn't entirely certain what creature lurked within, Beauden's thoughts continued to buzz. Though he was done sharing his guesses aloud, he couldn't resist going over the possible creatures, each one more thrilling than the last, in his mind.

His eyes drifted back to the upper windows of the fortress. It felt as though something was lurking just behind those dark panes, watching them, waiting. That ominous, almost hypnotic tune warned of "dawdling doom," yet somehow it was making him want to abandon caution and explore.

Dhruv thought they saw the metaphoric wheels turning in the older Lion’s brain. Even if Beauden may not know the correct answer, he was successful in eliminating two creatures that were most certainly not lurking in the fortress. “Excellent deductions, Mr. Wild. Banshees are known more for their wailing. With regard to vampires, songs are not typically included in the method of operation - unless of course, as you mentioned, Blodwyn Bludd should he choose to use his musical talent.” Dhruv resisted the urge to turn around and a look at the fortress. No doubt an outline or two could be seen as they moved close to the windows.

After ensuring there were no more hands in the air, they continued. “Today’s topic - Erklings.” When Dhruv spoke the word, it magically appeared on the board in black, bold letters though it appeared as though the professor had not done a single thing to initiate this. “These creatures are quite dangerous, especially to humans of a particular age range. But how can one identify an Erkling? What spells are most effective against them? You may share anything you know about them but only one piece of information is necessary so that your classmates have an opportunity to share as well.”

Dhruv paused in the middle of the student gathering, their hidden eyes searching for raised hands.



OOC: Heeey, guys! This is the last round of questions before we move onto the mini activity! That post shall come in 24 hours <3 Just a reminder that ketchup {catch up} is allowed!
