| | CoMC Lesson 2 :: The Stables As you step inside the stables, you're greeted with a musky, yet pleasant odor. The sun is shining down through the wooden beams of the high ceiling and you can hear the wind blowing just outside the door. Professor Morgan is there, sitting on a small wooden stool in her warm, navy blue robes.
OOC: This lesson is going to run somewhat slow, to allow more students to attended. Just have fun and try to bear with me, it seems my girls have given me the flu.  |

Chris rasied his hand. "Didnt Harry Potter tell that he had encountered Lord Voldemort drinking the blood of the unicorn? I know this isn't a nice time they were mentioned in history but that was still important." he said hoping his answer was ok.

Kayla raised her hand, "Apparently Adam, in the Garden of Eden saw a unicorn in the beginning of time. Alexander the Great, in the 3rd century, Julius Caesar, in the 1st Century and Genghis Khan in the early 1200's just to name a few."

Jake raised his hand, remembering the history of the unicorns better than anything else so far. "Professor Morgan, there were accounts of sightings by Emperor Fu Hsi, Julius Caesar, Alexander the Great, Apollonius of Tyana and Genghis Khan."

They hang in Musée de Cluny, in Paris, ever since 1882."

Besides the ones that some had named, Kaika didn't know any others...except, "Well, Marco Polo wrote about unicorns, only that he didn't know those were unicorns but rhinoceros....and Leonardo Da Vinci wrote about them as well, but I don't think he ever saw one..." she started to say, and bit her bottom lip, mainly because she didn't answer the question per say. "However, Da Vinci was referring to the Hunt of the Unicorns, so maybe he did" she shrugged.

Via raise her hands and answered, "According to ancient Vietnamese history, the unicorn made its first appearance during the Duong Dynasty, about 600 AD. Emperor Duong Cao To, after a military victory which resulted in his conquest of the Central Highlands, popularized the dance of the unicorn to celebrate peace. Then here's another Professor, One of the first Unicorns is said to have appeared almost 5,000 years ago to give Emperor Fu Hsi the secrets of written language."

| Mrs. Alex Turner *asterisks user* Secret Door "Unicorns have been supposedly spotted by three great warriors, Ma'am.." Evangeline started after raising her hand. "Alexander the Great, who managed to ride the unicorn, Julius Caesar, who described creatures similar to unicorns in his writings and Genghis Khan, who in 1224 was ready to conquer India when he spotted a unicorn, that spoke to him as if he was his Father.." Haha. Right. Gosh, Muggles could be so imaginative. "He didn't conquer India.." |

Willie stuffed down the two chocolate frogs she had given him. He was so happy right now, if it weren't for that flue of his. With a loud sniff again, Willie rubbed his face with his sleeve, wiping away the chocolate stains on his face.
He didn't notice that the questions were still going around, but when he did, he shot his hand up in the air again. "Profethor, profethor, PROFEETHOORRRR!!" He called her excitedly. Although, before he could answer her question, the small curly haired boy began to cough a cough that came from the lungs. Once he was over, he sniffed and rubbed his teared eyes.
"Me mum told me onthe tha' Lord Vol--Val--Vel--Volwathhithname drank thome of the unicorn'th blud onthe. True thtory!" He rasped, his throat feeling quite itchy.

"Professor, Adam saw one in the garden of eden at the beginning of time, then there was one see by Emperor Fu Hsi about 5,000 years ago." He smiled. "So it depends on what you mean about the first one seen." He looked thoughful as if he was trying to think about how to answer the question. "If you mean the first on by man then it is Adam, but if you don't count him then it is Emperor Fu Hsi about 5000 years ago who was the first one to see a unicorn."

| connoisseur of comfort ❅ Crayola's Wibby Mrs Alex Turner ❅ Netflix and meow Oh yesh. He'd earned himself a chocolate frog. What a genius. With a rather smug expression, Clifford pocketed the chocolate and raised his hand high in the air. Maybe he'd be able to get himself another one. "There's this one dude.. he's got a bit of a funny name.. Emperor Yao or something? Yeah, he saw a unicorn in China I think. And then ANOTHER bloke with a funny name saw one too. Julius Caesar? He said he saw one in some forest in Germany."

"So, now that we know when the first unicorns were sighted. Can anyone tell me about some famous people in history who have been associated with unicorn sightings?"
OOC: Ok, bedtime for me guys. Please feel free to answer the question but it doesn't require class discussion so no chatting. I will see you in the morning.
Nuuu! History question about famous people...
Well Ana had mentioned something about a Harold Potter in the History of magic, or was it Harry? Think It's Harry. Maybe his middle names Harry or something. Melanie had looked that guy up and... I know an answer!!! Melanie almost jumped up in the air with excitement as her hand shot up in. "Professer Morgan! I know the answer." Melanie said, a clear tone of delite in her voice. "Harry Potter saw a unicorn in that forest over there." Melanie informed her pointing a finger in the direction of the Forbidden forest. "It was sorta not alive though." she said with an unpleasant shiver. Ewwie. Glad I'm not him.
Melanie listened to everyone else's answers and her lips turned down into a slight frown. Smart people. At least some are Hufflepuffs though. |

It is said it's head resembled a lion and the body resembled a horse. It had a horn on it's forehead and it is believed that King rode on a unicorn." Hmm. Unicorn's in hostory sounded a little odd compared to the ones now. These unicorns in the stables were much cuter! |

Reese raised her hand. "From the beginning of time, Adam encountered a unicorn. Then, about 2697 B.C., Emperor Huang Di encountered the next known unicorn. In 2,000 B.C., Emperor Yao encountered the third unicorn. In about 551 B.C, Confucius encountered the fourth unicorn that appeared. In the fourth century B.C., Ctesias encountered the fifth unicorn. Then, in the 3rd century B.C. , Alexander the Great encountered a unicorn. In the 1st century B.C., Julius Caesar encountered a unicorn. And in the early 1200s, Genghis Khan encountered a unicorn."

Emalyn raised her hand, hoping this answer would do. "During the 15th or 16th century, Professor, I read that European travelers who came from Asia, Africa and America, came home with new reports about unicorns."

| Wowza! Famous people and unicorn sightings. . . Willow raised her hand quickly, " A Muggle named Julius Caesar, Professor. I think he was pretty important and all." She did not know for what, though. "And Confucius saw one, too, I believe. In China." That was so far away.

They can be traced all the way back to the beginning of time." Iliana said, walking back to the front of the class and standing in between the two stalls.
"Now that we've gone over the unicorns' history, let's discuss what we know about them in present day. What might relate to us in the wizarding world? For example, what parts of the unicorn can be used and what they are used for?" She instructed.

Jake raised his hand slowly, some people had already mentioned potion ingredients earlier. "The hair... the tail hair I think... well, it's really strong, isn't it? So, people could use it in... erm, things that need to be strong when bound... Also, in wands, because of the obvious magical doohickies..."

Willie raised his hand yet again and waved it like a manic. Dang, being short really has its disadvantages. Something MUST be done about this. Taking a loud sniff, the boy went on his hands and knees and crawled under a lot of legs. "Thcuthe me, pleaaathe. Comiiin thruuu" He would say, once he had passed more than eight legs.
He didn't know how many he's crossed, but it was quite strange to see someone's legs being so gold. And four legs? That's a little too odd, isn't it? Willie wrinkled his nose in wonderment and then he raised his head.
"Woaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!

| Double Agent Stamps! Abby raises her hand. "Because of their purity, unicorn horn is considered magical and is a popular ingredient in potions. Medieval muggles believed in the power of the unicorn's magic. They believed possessing the horn would guarantee a long and healthy life. It was believed that ground unicorn horn could cure fever, plague, epilepsy, rabies, gout, and a whole host of other ailments. The muggle believed the unicorn's strength came from them because once a year they drank the water and eat the vegetation of Paradise." |
