Harry Potter’s Morning Light - Chapter 2844
Chapter 2844 “Wooden Man” (4)
In Slavic fairy tales, the goddess in charge of death and winter is named Morana. She is the tenth child of the **** of thunder, Pelun. Her image is usually a girl holding a sickle.
In the long and extremely cold winter, hunger and cold will bring death, and even Morana himself will die at the end of winter. But this does not mean the end of everything, she will be reborn as Vesna, the goddess of spring and life, year after year, unchanged.
She has a twin brother named Yariluo. On the last night of February when they were born, Yariluo was stolen by Veles, the **** of the northern underworld. The underworld is located on the opposite side of the sea, where there is eternal spring and wet grasslands, where Yarilo grew up and guarded his adoptive father’s cattle.
But every summer solstice, he meets his twin sister, Morana, and they fall in love and get married without knowing it. However, after the harvest season, Jarilo will be killed by Morana for being unfaithful to his wife. Lilo will be reborn and reenact what happened last year.
Pomona went to the corridor on the 4th floor on the day of the summer solstice. The mirror there has not changed from the previous summer solstice, it seems to be an ordinary mirror. Then she looked at the calendar of 1752. The summer solstice of that year was not a full moon, and all signs showed that she was thinking too much.
Of the three people standing outside the door that day, Barnaby herself had the talent of being immune to black magic, Severus was carrying the invigorating potion, Pomona had nothing, plus she was gifted with a sensory type, So the reaction is bigger than both of them.
At least that’s how Albus explained it to her, and then at the hospital bedside, he told her the story about the Winter Goddess, who, like a veela, punishes unfaithful husbands.
This seems to be her trigger point, as long as she encounters this kind of problem, she will be very angry and violent.
Forest trolls are less irritable than mountain trolls, and they grow a field of barber tubers in the forest for their food. Originally, this field was outside the border, but as the trolls cultivated more and more, they gradually encroached on the territory of the centaur, so the centaur reported this problem to the Ministry of Magic.
There is a “joke” in the Ministry of Magic that whoever is assigned to the centaur office will basically lose his career. There is a female staff member named Pulia Mole who is in charge of this matter. She is immersed in self-pity In grief, there was little to do. So the centaurs took advantage of the opportunity of Hogwarts to train the trolls, “obliged” to train the trolls, and taught the trolls how to obey the rules and not cross the border.
Pomona puts the matter in the hands of Barnaby, Ben, and Leeds, to “get a good workout” in the company of Graplan, and to spend as little time in the castle as they can.
Man is not like a puppet with a defect in its manufacture, which can be thrown into the fire and destroyed. Rameli can only remove his son’s name, but he can’t put him back in his wife’s stomach to start over. Paul’s name is not listed on the admission book, but it doesn’t mean that he went to Beauxbatons. With his father’s wealth, he probably could afford a tutor. Who knows who he studied under?
In that pastime book, at last the villagers held a meeting to negotiate and leveled Rice’s castle. The soil was cursed and the fruit trees couldn’t survive. The so-called “middle ground” was not man-made.
If the village is not restored to its former tranquility after being leveled, they will all move away, just like so many Bretons, to work in big cities.
Before the villagers took any action, the king sent a master hunter to encircle and suppress the wild beasts in the mountains together with the villagers. When the story progresses here, it turns into a plot similar to the hunting of Rewodang beasts. Although it is wonderful, it is fictional.
Being an “Iron Lady” is difficult, and the workplace has to face a lot of competition and pressure. She couldn’t help worrying that if she didn’t stay in school and went to work for the Ministry of Magic, her fate might be similar to that of Puglia.
“Where’s the **** key?” Pomona murmured to herself in pain, but couldn’t find a clue.
At this time she heard a series of “jingling” sounds.
She followed the sound and found that it was Hagrid who made the sound, and he had a large bunch of keys on his waist.
“Of course!” Pomona grumbled, walking towards Hagrid.
Who knows keys better than a keykeeper?
As she was walking towards Hagrid, a group of students blocked her path, chasing a wind-up doll.
“Stop it quickly!” A boy shouted, but his shout made the people in front of him get out of the way.
Pomona glanced at Hagrid, then at the out-of-control puppet, and finally decided to check the puppet first. After all, Hagrid couldn’t run away, and he would definitely go back to the cabin by the woods.
“I’m going to cut your budget,” said Pomona as he ran. Isn’t it enough to have a scary puppet in the castle now?
After crossing the drawbridge, she came to the main castle, Peeves’ “exclusive bathroom”…
“Okay~~~”
Peves rushed out of the bathroom, covered in water.
“I just swam in the toilet and Eupracia Moore said I could swim in it!”
The boys heard what Peeves said, they ran as far as they could, no one wanted the water in the toilet to stick to themselves, so naturally no one cared about the crazy doll.
“Stop it!” Pomona yelled, drawing her wand from the wand holster under her arm.
A blue light suddenly hit it, and then Snape, who was completely black, came out from the corner, pulling the motionless doll with his leather shoes.
The boys didn’t know whether to come forward, although this doll should be an item of their club.
“Thank you, Severus,” panted Pomona “Thanks for stopping it.”
Snape looked up at the boys.
“Are you from the Puppet Club?” He asked slowly.
“No, we’re from the Mechanical Club,” said a boy.
“Not the Mechanical Club.” Another boy corrected “We’re from the Magical Devices Club.”
“What’s your purpose in making this puppet?” Snape asked.
“Just trying the clockwork system,” said a boy.
“How is it broken?” Snape asked.
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.
“This is confiscated.” Snape said coldly.
“Oh~” the club members complained.
“Do you have any more?” Snape asked.
“This is the first one we made.” Club members mourned the puppets on the ground.
“You guys are so lazy, you are still playing with toys when the exam is coming soon.” Snape said badly.
“It’s not a toy, it’s a machine,” said the boy.
“Let’s go first.” Pomona said to the members of the club, and then looked at other people watching the excitement, “Everyone go back!”
After everyone dispersed, Pomona looked at the doll on the ground.
“What spell did you just use?” Pomona asked.
“Full body binding spell, just a sudden inspiration, are you there, Paul.” Snape said, looking at the puppet.
The puppet that was lying on the ground suddenly sat upright. She didn’t know if it was her illusion, but she felt that the puppet’s expression was a bit hideous.
“Looking for your ‘playmate’?” Snape asked.
The doll turned a circle on the ground.
“They’re not in the castle,” Snape said. “They’re in the Forbidden Forest to deal with the trolls and the centaurs.”
The doll turned around on the ground, and even in the shape of the doll, Pomona could feel its rage.
At this time, she thought of Peeves. It was because of Peeves’ rampage that the castle had to be evacuated for three days. In order to restore Peeves to normal, the then headmaster, Eupracia Moore, signed an agreement with Peeves. He is allowed to “swim” in the boys bathroom on the first floor every week.
“Beware of him going berserk.” Pomona reminded in Snape’s ear.
“Do you like your ‘playmate’?” Snape asked.
The puppet stopped.
“Are you worried about them getting hurt?” Snape asked again.
‘What do you mean? ’ said a voice like a whisper in Pomona.
“What did he mean by asking you?” Pomona said.
Snape looked at her strangely.
Pomona pointed to the doll on the ground.
“You’re not the only danger around them.” Snape smiled at it and said “Have you noticed?”
‘What is it? ’ asked the same voice.
Pomona hurriedly said that sentence to Snape.
“The time is not yet ripe, and telling you in advance will be bad.” Snape said.
‘I won’t tell anyone. ‘
“I don’t believe you,” Snape said with a smile.
‘How can I gain your trust? ‘
“Don’t ask anything, just wait quietly, and I’ll tell you when the time comes,” Snape said.
Then there was silence.
“Is he gone?” asked Pomona.
Snape took out his wand and burned the puppet to ashes.
Then he took her hand and left the place.
