Good Morning Students and Faculty:
Well, last night was interesting enough. The sounds you all heard from the storeroom on the sixth floor are where the crystal ball is being held. It seems that last night it hurled itself at the shield all night long, smashing into it trying to escape. It is still contained as of this morning and the shield is holding well. A 24-hour watch has been placed on it from now on. Minister Shacklebolt and I will try to communicate with it today. Does it have self awareness? Is it alive? Answers we must obtain. As for now, use caution around the sixth floor area, students are forbidden at this time. Stay away. Strong storms are expected this afternoon. All outdoor activities have been canceled.
Regards,
Headmaster Dumbledore
