DNF meets Harry Potter

Chapter 23 The Ravenclaw Lounge

Under the leadership of the prefects of each college, the first-year freshmen went to the common room.

The Ravenclaw Common Room is located at the west end of Hogwarts Castle, at the top of a spiral staircase, roughly on the fifth floor.

Its entrance door has no handle or keyhole, but instead has a bronze knocker in the shape of an eagle.When you knock on the door, the knocker will ask a question, and only the correct answer will allow you to enter the common room.Otherwise, even the headmaster is fine.

This year, the prefect who was responsible for introducing the basic situation of Ravenclaw to the freshmen this year was senior sister Penello. She stopped before the bronze door knocker.Then turned around and smiled: "Welcome to Ravenclaw!"

"I am the prefect Penello, you can call me Senior Penello.

Our emblem is the eagle, which can fly to heights that other animals cannot.

Our college colors are blue and bronze.Our common room is located on the top floor of Ravenclaw Tower, behind an enchanted knocker.

Arched windows embedded in the circular common room overlook the school playground.No other college has such stunning vistas. "

"Without bragging, Ravenclaw is the house of the brightest wizards. Our house founder, Rowena Ravenclaw, put learning above all else, and so do we.

Unlike the other house common rooms which all have a hidden entrance, we don't need this, our common room door just above a high winding staircase has no handle, replaced by an enchanted eagle knocker.

When you knock on the door, the knocker will ask you a question, and if you answer it correctly, you will be granted entry.For almost 1000 years, this simple little barrier has kept everyone but Ravenclaws out..."

The freshmen were a little excited when they heard the prefect's crackling talk.

Except, of course, Carl. "Can one question keep all students except Ravenclaw out? Then the brains of the students in the other three colleges are probably as good as trolls. Let's talk and don't brag, okay?"

Senior Sister Penello finished explaining Ravenclaw's situation according to the script, and was very satisfied with the excited expressions of the freshmen.

She stepped forward and knocked lightly on the door.

Soon, an ethereal voice sounded from the eagle mouth knocker: "You can do it, I can do it, everyone can do it, one person can do it, two people can't do it together. What is this for?"

"Come and try it, you have to exercise your logical thinking, otherwise you may not even be able to enter the door in the future." Senior sister Penello smiled gently and encouraged the new students to try.

"Did Ravenclaw like brain teasers that much back then?" Karl watched the young eaglets who were thinking hard and began to gradually doubt life.

The [-]-point magical intelligence bonus is not a cover, and Karl has the answer after a little thought.

"Let me try." He said loudly, squeezed his way out of the crowd, and came to the door knocker.

"This is a dream!" He said his answer firmly.

"The answer is correct!" Eagle Ring immediately replied to Karl, and then the closed door slowly opened.

"Perfect answer, well done, Junior Karl." As a Ravenclaw, Senior Penello kept her name and appearance firmly in her heart when she was sorted, so as to avoid the embarrassing situation of calling the wrong person.It is said that this happens often in Gryffindor and Hufflepuff next door.

"Trust me, you will love this process in the future..."

"When you go back to the common room, you may often see [-] or [-] people standing in front of the door knocker, thinking hard, don't panic, this is not uncommon."

"Another thing to note is that every time the door knocker is closed and you want it to open again, you need to answer a new question. As far as I know, there hasn't been a single repetition in the millennium since Hogwarts was founded."

"So this will be very inconvenient, but we can only abide by it. Because this is the rule set by Ravenclaw, it is best to check your teaching materials carefully before setting off to see if there are any omissions. Sometimes the door knocker mentions Even the seniors who are about to graduate have to think about it for a long time, which may make you late."

"Now, please come in..."

After saying this, Penello walked in.

The empty Ravenclaw common room is a large circular room, more ethereal than any other room in Hogwarts.

There are elegant arched windows on the wall, hung with blue and bronze silk: during the day, Ravenclaw students can see the surrounding mountains, and the scenery is beautiful.

The ceiling is domed with stars painted on it, just like the Hogwarts Great Hall, which was also arranged by Ravenclaw, and the dark blue carpet below is also covered with stars.There were tables, chairs, bookshelves in the room, and in the alcove opposite the door stood a tall white marble statue that was undoubtedly Rowena Ravenclaw herself!
Penello looked at the young eagles who were stunned and suppressed their smiles, and continued to introduce.

"The ghost of our house is Lady Gray. She may not be very talkative. But she is happy to help you when you ask questions."

"Our common room has another name - crystal farm. All Ravenclaws have more or less alchemist talents. This common room is the most perfect place to provide crystal growth. The materials used are Luo Ina Ravenclaw chose to cast it herself. So Ravenclaws can always get the crystal for research."

"It is worth mentioning that in that era when wizards were prosperous. The four giants who built Hogwarts were all top existences in their respective fields."

"Beautiful Ravenclaw, from the peaceful riverside, is a powerful magician who has reached the pinnacle of alchemy."

"The shrewd Slytherin came from that quagmire. His powerful black magic and top-notch potions made him the most unprovoked great wizard at that time."

"Benevolent Hufflepuff, from the open valley, she is not only an excellent gourmet but also a master herbalist."

"Brave Gryffindor, from the barren swamp, and Slytherin are two extremes, he controls the most powerful white magic."

……

"Don't worry Gryffindors and Hufflepuffs, I'll mention a little more about Slytherins. Well, maybe you've heard some of them, and they're not all bad, but you still have to be on your guard until you get to know them well. They have a long tradition of winning by any means possible, so watch out, especially in Quidditch matches and exams.

"The dormitory has been allocated, your names are written on it, and the salute has already arrived. Another point, boys are absolutely not allowed to enter the female dormitory. There is a powerful magic cast by Ravenclaw himself on the door of the female dormitory. Forbidden, if there are curious little boys who want to see its power, they can try it, but I guess St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Wounds will welcome a big client."

"Finally, congratulations again and congratulations on being part of the smartest, weirdest, funniest house at Hogwarts!"
