Looking at her notes, Mari thought for a few moments, mentally going on over how she intended to win this debate.


Yes, she wanted to win. She liked winning, even if she didn't really care for the topic. She was going to totally prove that...she glanced at her topic. Oh yes, that house elves were perfectly happy doing what the did. Yes.


Clearing her throat, she spoke after a few other classmates did. " If you're so enthusiastic about letting house elves choose change, why can't we also be enthusiastic about letting them resolve to stay in servitude? There was a house elf," Mari thought a moment. " Kreacher. He served the Black family for ages, and was never more pleased to know he was serving them the family that he had probably known his whole life." She paused, then continued." To take that away from him, or try to even force supposed freedom on him would be quite terrible, quite terrible indeed." She said. " If he were alive today, that is." She said quickly. " His case was slightly extreme, but I agree with Sara, we should not try to enforce a change on all elves if it will not please all of them, right?" She asked, giving the other slightly lonely side (they only had one supporter as of that moment,) a chance to argue their point.
