...You hesitate, but your curiousity gets the better of you and you walk closer to the fire.

"Ahhhh... right, fairies. I should have guessed."

...but just then your attention goes back to the fire. You wonder whose it is. The fairies are no mystery anymore – Hagrid had said fairies were attracted to light in a recent Care of Magical Creatures class. The light from the fire stood out against the dark forest.

Hmmm...

Fairies were good to have around when traveling – that is, if they were happy with you – because they know the land well.

Feeling silly, you politely ask the fairies if they know the way to Hogwarts. They pause for a second...

Then...

They fly in front of you and in a straight, glimmering line – stop – and head toward the trees to your right. You follow them, dodging branches and plants along the way, and jumping over roots and rocks.

You follow them to a clearing and... Hogwarts.

Turning around, you see the fairies desending into the forest again.

Looking up at Hogwarts, you feel a strange sense of awe.

Walking up towards the castle in a daze, you know you won't forget this night anytime soon...
