Mmhhm. Runes. "I would say yes but, since you seem interested in the topic, let me elaborate and say that that depends, Miss Moonfield. Runes is quite a broad subject, and divination-via-runes is only one aspect of it. That said, if you have a good handle on that, it means you have a good basic knowledge of at least a few rune-sets; and there can be no doubt that that means you will have a definite edge over students who have yet to be introduced to the subject."
"The deeper you go into a subject - any subject - the more you will find there is to it; but good, solid facts and practice always help."
Di smiled back, a small but pleasant smile. "I'm glad to see you are so enthusiastic about the subject, Miss Della," she said, tones rather matter-of-fact. Because fact, her statement was.
Same? "I think so." Her smile grew, a little. "I last saw Hogwarts and the Runes classroom here, ten years ago - and I was a student, then."
Emily smiled "Thanks proffessor." she said then pulled the rune bag from around herneck, "This is my heirloom rune set." Emily said, "It contains fehu, uruz, thurisaz, ansuz, raidho, kenaz, gebo, wunjo, hagalaz, nauthiz, isa, jera, eihwaz, perthro, algiz, sowilo, teiwaz, berkana, ehwaz, mannaz, laguz, ingwaz, dagaz, and othala." Emily said and at the end of it took in a long breath.
"I noticed that there were some runes in the school rune set that I did not recognize." Emily added.
