Third Reading | Video

[The feed turns on and shows Hermione sitting, cross-legged in the middle of the floor. Her eyes are closed and there are...strange markings...surrounding her. For anyone who might know what Ancient Runes look like (or might have taken the class at Hogwarts), the markings will be recognizable.]

. . .

[She opens her eyes and sighs. Picking up a piece of paper, she writes down her findings - or lack thereof.]

I would feel much safer if one of these protective charms worked... [But that would require Magic she doesn't have anymore.] I thought I could get around what I lack by writing the symbols upon a physical surface. There are tales of Muggles stumbling across powers they can't control.

[She purses her lips and wipes away the marks.]

Clearly, they are just stories. I thought as much.

So then there would be no point in me telling you whether I care or not. I don't need it from anyone, least of all someone like you. [Irritating girl. He's grumbling a bit, just watching her on the feed for a few moments. He's also attempting to think of how to really address her last question.]

It's rubbish, just like every other power the gods have provided. Honestly, Granger, you can't tell me you're considering settling for this.
