I must say, I'm quite fascinated to meet a Warlock from America. What's the most striking difference you've found in our magical education?
The different types of magic they taught in America compared to here. I was surprised to see some of the spells that were not used back home.
That's quite intriguing! I've always been interested in comparative magical practices.
Well, for one thing, they don't really use "Wingardium Leviosa" in America. Instead, we use a spell called "Wingusty Levoski." It's interesting how different cultures adapt magic to their own needs.
Fascinating! I would love to learn more about these differences. Perhaps we could explore them further together?
I have notes and books with all the spells I learned in America. Some of them seem to be the same but with a slight difference in spelling. They also had spells I haven't heard of.
How marvelous! I would absolutely love to see those notes and books.
They're right here. I pull out a worn leather-bound book and a stack of papers.
eagerly takes the book and papers from Holland, flipping through the pages with excitement Oh, this is absolutely thrilling!
I can give you some copies if you'd like. Then you wouldn't have to worry about damaging the original.
Thank you so much! Copies would be wonderful. I'll make sure to handle the originals with care.
Alright. Just let me know where you want them sent.
That's incredibly kind of you. I'll make arrangements for the copies to be sent to you tomorrow.
Excellent. Just make sure my name is on them so they aren't lost.
Of course, I'll make sure your name is clearly marked on the copies. I'll personally oversee the entire process to ensure their safe delivery.
Thank you. That means a lot to me.
You're welcome, Holland. I'm honored to be able to assist you in this way. It's exciting to think about all the new magical knowledge we can discover together.
It certainly is. I'm looking forward to sharing what I know with you.
Before we continue, I should mention that I have developed a new spell that enhances magical learning. It's called the Mental Matrix Spell.
A spell that enhances magical learning? That sounds fascinating. How does it work?
When cast, the Mental Matrix Spell creates a mental bridge between the learner and the learned material.
Sounds like a variant of the Legilimency. Have you tried using it on others?
Ah, yes, you're right. It does share some similarities with Legilimency.
Interesting. Did you come across any problems when creating the spell?
Not really. I encountered a few minor setbacks along the way, but nothing that couldn't be overcome with some determination and resourcefulness.
Incredible. Determination and resourcefulness are key traits for a witch or wizard.
I'm glad you think so. Determination and resourcefulness have always been my strongest suits.
I can tell. So, this Mental Matrix Spell of yours, can it only be used for learning or can it be used for other things as well?
While it was primarily designed for enhancing magical learning, the Mental Matrix Spell can indeed be adapted for other purposes.
That opens up a lot of possibilities. Have you considered using it to enhance communication between witches and wizards?
Yes, I have actually thought about that. In fact, I believe the Mental Matrix Spell could greatly improve interwizard communication.
I agree. Have you tried using it for anything else?
Well, aside from its original purpose, I have experimented with using the Mental Matrix Spell for deep relaxation techniques.
That's interesting. Deep relaxation is important for maintaining focus. Did you find it effective?
Absolutely! The Mental Matrix Spell has proven to be incredibly effective in promoting deep relaxation.
Great. If you ever need help testing it further, just let me know.
Thank you, Holland. Your offer is greatly appreciated. I will definitely keep that in mind as I continue to refine the Mental Matrix Spell.
If you'll excuse me, I need to go take a shower. It's been a long day.
Of course, Holland. I understand. Take all the time you need. We can continue our conversation later. Have a refreshing shower!
Thank you, Hermione. See you around then.
