Zoe now understood why she had been so confused. She thought that Runes were supposed to be a language. She couldn't figure out what had been going on until Professor Lupa revealed that they were not real. Thank goodness.

Raising her hand slowly she asked, "So what are the things that we were looking at, and what are they used for? Which Runes will we be using for class?"

She smiled brightly, hoping that the Professor knew that the negative things that had gone on were in no way her fault. Someone should come up with a spell to destroy bigoted attitudes. At the last moment she added, “The chocolate cake was wonderful, thank you so much for that.”
