The next morning, Harry and Draco were determined to solve the lingering mysteries surrounding Luna's behavior and the inexplicable encounter with Snape's apparition. As they entered the Great Hall for breakfast, their eyes scanned the room for Luna, hoping to have a chance to talk with her.

Spotting Luna sitting alone at the Ravenclaw table, they made their way over, their hearts filled with concern. Luna looked up and smiled warmly at their approach, her distant demeanor from before seemingly replaced by a sense of serenity.

"Good morning, Harry, Draco," Luna greeted them with her trademark dreamy tone. "I hope you had a pleasant date in Hogsmeade yesterday."

"We did," Harry replied with a gentle smile, "but there's something we'd like to talk to you about, Luna."

Luna's eyes brightened with curiosity as she tilted her head slightly. "Of course, I'm always here to listen and share my perspectives."

As they sat down beside her, Harry and Draco exchanged glances, silently agreeing on how to approach the delicate topic.

"Luna, we couldn't help but notice that you've been acting differently lately," Draco began, his voice soft and concerned. "Is everything alright? You know you can trust us."

Luna's expression softened, and she looked at them with understanding. "Thank you for caring, Draco. I've been exploring new perspectives and connections, but it's hard to put into words."

"We want to help," Harry added, his eyes conveying his sincerity. "If there's something you need to share or if you're facing any challenges, we're here for you."

Luna hesitated for a moment, then took a deep breath. "You see, I've been delving into the realm of magical creatures and ancient enchantments. It's like peering into hidden worlds beyond our own reality. I've discovered a rare and powerful magical creature, a guardian spirit, said to hold great wisdom and protect important secrets."

Draco and Harry exchanged surprised glances, intrigued by Luna's revelations.

"And... I believe I've encountered this guardian spirit," Luna continued, her eyes shining with wonder. "It's connected to the Whispering Veil, a magical phenomenon that manifests echoes of individuals who left a profound impact. I witnessed it in the Forbidden Forest, near a hidden monument dedicated to Professor Snape."

Their eyes widened at the mention of Snape's name, realizing that Luna's discoveries might hold the key to the enigmatic encounter they had in Hogsmeade.

"What do you mean, Luna?" Harry asked, his voice tinged with both surprise and excitement.

Luna's expression turned serious. "The guardian spirit serves as a guide to those who seek wisdom. It's connected to the essence of individuals who have passed away, especially those with great courage and sacrifice. When I witnessed Snape's echo in Hogsmeade, I felt a connection to his spirit, as if he was trying to convey a message."

Draco leaned in, his curiosity piqued. "A message? What did you feel he was trying to say?"

Luna's eyes sparkled with a mix of uncertainty and conviction. "I think he was trying to remind us of his bravery and dedication, and that his legacy lives on in the choices we make. Snape's spirit might still be guiding us, urging us to continue fighting for the values he held dear."

The pieces of the puzzle seemed to fall into place as Harry and Draco connected the dots between Luna's discoveries and their own encounter with Snape's apparition in Hogsmeade.

"It all makes sense," Harry murmured, his mind racing with newfound understanding. "The Whispering Veil, Snape's apparition, and now the guardian spirit—all connected to the memories and sacrifices of those who left a lasting impact."

Draco nodded in agreement, his admiration for Luna's insights growing. "You have an incredible gift, Luna, to perceive and understand things that others might overlook."

Luna smiled humbly. "Thank you, Draco. I've always believed in the beauty of unseen worlds, and I'm glad I could share this with you both."

Harry and Draco walked away as Luna got up when she was called by a fellow Ravenclaw.

"Do you think the matter should end here? As it doesn't seem as simple as what she witnessed" Draco said

"For now, lets leave this matter as the more we get deep into it, the more our lives get in risk. But if something like this happens again, we will definitely look more into that, okay?" Harry has experience of getting into mysteries like this so he'd rather ignore this matter.

"Hmm...Okay okay and anyways, we should focus on ourselves, right? Pretty boy?" Draco smiled but he was still not convinced and wanted to find an end to this.

"Ugh" Harry rolled his eyes but he was blushing~
