"You see, I got this card in History of Magic, but I can't seem to find any information on it." He held it out, showing the name, Lord Stoddard Withers. "I figured you could give me a clue as to what he did. All I know is that he breed flying horses and that he died in 1769." He stopped, hoping he wouldn't get into trouble for asking another professor for help. Second guessing was his way of trying to calm himself, but he was in too much now, there was no stopping him. "I guess what I'm trying to ask is, is there anything you know about him?" He asked, his blue eyes pleading with her. "Lovely to meet you, Mr. Cullack. I will certainly do my best." She said, with a smile. At hearing his request, Iliana walked over and pulled a large, old book off the shelf. Opening it toward the center, she leafed backwards through the pages until she found what she was looking for. "Here we are." she said, bringing it over to her chair and placing it on her lap. "I studied Lord Withers during my first few years here at Hogwarts. I didn't learn a lot because there weren't great records kept on the man, but you're welcomed to what information I have." She said, turning the book around so that he could get a better look. "Read this and see if it helps." she said, pointing out the paragraph. Quote:
Lord Stoddard Williams (1642–1769) was a magizoologist who bred winged horses. He created a sport that combined elements of polo and Quidditch. It was played on winged horses instead of brooms. The sport never became popular.
"It seems like the only other piece of information for you in here is that he created a new sport. Unfortunately, that's all I have for you as well." she said. "I do hope it helps a little."
