When the door slammed, Anna stopped twirling around in circles and turned towards the professor. She blinked and stared at Professor Lupa when she heard they would be starting the lesson with a flooding. A flooding...as in...the kind that had been terrorizing the school? There'd been grindylows last time, though! Anna felt a wave of panic come on, but it was quickly washed away when the professor assured that they were in no immediate danger. She trusted Professor Lupa, and she believed that the woman truly knew what she was doing. A few seconds later, the area began to fill with a clear, clean body of water.

Before we drown? Yikes! Anna's hand shot into the air faster than it ever had before. "I'd have to say Eihwaz, Professor. A few of the qualities brough forth by this rune are strength, endurance, defense, and protection," she suggested. "I think the four of those combined together can definitely assist us in this flood. We'd need strength to fight off the water and bring ourselves to safety. We'd need endurance to help us stay strong while we battled the flood. Defense, of course, would help us properly defend ourself, and protection pretty much speaks for itself. It would, of course, give us the protection we needed to escape the water."
