For the next two weeks, Hogwarts was like a chicken coop. And that was not even the students who were after the children of the Mephisticuffs.
Dumbledore wanted to pass the collected magic to new 'hosts' as quickly as possible. an idea with which Severus and Harry more than agreed. And so, every day some squibs came, hoping to finally get magic. And it worked. Of the twenty-six magic phials, two went to Filch and Arthur Weasley, ten went to children who were also enrolled. Ten were already adults and the last four had children who already suffered from Mageiophages and could be cured.

it was also decided that adult wizards were taught by Hagrid four times a week. For this purpose, the director conjured a makeshift classroom next to Hagrid's hut.
Potions was taught by a former Rawenclav who was training as Potions master.
This made Umbridge romp. Not only did four New Wizards arrive at the school on four evenings a week, but that they were taught by a half-human as well, aroused the woman's anger.
That person even went so far as to snare at Severus. she actually wanted to order him to withdraw this decision. But since the court had left him and his husband with the decision on what to do with the tapped magic, Severus simply dismissed the woman roughly.
he loved the idea that Hagrid was teaching these people. Especially since the man himself was able to finish his education very late. So who would understand these new wizards better than him?

As for the trial and, above all, the condemnation of the Mephisticuffs, Harry was right. Every day new articles have been brought about the Brotherhood, and that's really from every magical newspaper in the country. And every day new details came to light. It was learned that the ten remaining women, who had only been forced to participate, took in all the children whose parents were taken to the Dragon Rocks. Also the fortune of the condemned ones was distributed to just these women. Together with companies, real estate or seats in the council.
They also learned more about the ritual that the Brotherhood was so proud of.
It was originally developed by Merlin, but for a purpose other than the Mephistis used.
Actually, the ritual was supposed to increase the wizard's understanding of muggles. Wizards initiating the ritual shared power and knowledge, but had to make sacrifices for it. Unlike the Brotherhood. One of the group should lose his magic after the performance. but not forever, but only until the spell was performed the next time and someone else took the place of the 'victim'. That's how wizards should learn what it was like to live as a muggle. however, Merlin had quickly realized that his spell was used for pure lust of power. that's why he finally banned the ritual.

As for the children of the Brotherhood, Harry was right, too. They were now under absolute puppy protection. No matter which house they came from and whether eleven or seventeen. No one was allowed to annoy them and they were also rigorously defended before teachers. Well, actually only in front of Umbridge, who just could not resist imposing on these kids. it seemed she wanted to use her as a spy against the other students. What made all the bells ring with everyone else. Thus, the pink danger was repeatedly 'victims' of jokes, which came mostly from the house of Weasley. Some students even openly attacked. Although only verbally, but that seemed to be enough for the woman. It hailed detention in a crowd that outclassed even Snape in his worst times.

However, there were also good things. For example, a new game that enjoyed great popularity among all the houses. it bore the melodious name 'Fang the tail'. Harry loved seeing up to forty students frolic around the grounds trying to catch each other. it was a game that the caretaker also welcomed, because fewer students came up with the idea of ​​mischief in the castle. The man had even refused to do anything about the pranks played on the defense teacher. He had only replied to Umbridge's outraged nagging that his powers of magic had not yet developed enough to do anything about it.
Yes, Filch also did not like the pink hazard. This made him surprisingly popular with the students.
