"Good answer," Professor Vindictus said and nodded his head. "Flying with dangerous creatures around is certainly not safe for both the flier and the creature. Three points to Hufflepuff."

"That is correct, Mr. Sevens. Strict observation of the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy should always be observed. Five points to Ravenclaw for leading us into the second part of our lesson," Professor Vindictus smiled. "The History of Flying."

His blue eyes scanned the room and he smiled. "There is no spell that enables wizards to fly unaided in their present human form. It is true that levitation is used, but is it truly exciting to hover no more than five feet over the ground? Of course not! Our ancestors wanted more and the dream of soaring through the sky like a bird in flight drove ambitious wizards to discover ways of accomplishing that feat without growing feathers."

"Why is it then, that us wizards use broomsticks?"
