"Found the new spell faster than I discovered my feelings for you?"
Oh yeah. I get lucky sometimes
Lucky that you've managed to keep me a secret or lucky finding spells?
You do have a knack for getting what you want. A bit like how you convinced me to be your secret lover, hmm?
Hey, how did you know? Have you been spying on us?
Spy? Please, I don't need to spy on you. A little birdie would occasionally mention certain things. And besides, secrets aren't hard to find if they aren't kept well.
Well damn, our secret isn’t really a secret anymore huh? You sure know how to spoil the fun, Artemis.
Oh, but the fun has only just begun, dear lover. There's so much more I could tell you if you're up for it. Or shall we explore those hidden passages in this castle?
Hmm, exploring the castle sounds like fun... as long as we stick to the secret passages, of course.
Ah, no need to worry. The secret passages are where all the real excitement is. Come, follow me.
Lead the way then, but remember, there are boundaries even lovers should respect. Let’s go to my dorm then ok?
Your dorm it is, but how about some detours along the way? I promise it'll be worth your while. Now then, let's not waste any more time.
Alright, alright. Show me these supposedly 'worth my while' detours. Lead on, Artemis.
The first detour is down this hall, right at the end of the corridor. It leads to a room that holds quite a few surprises. But, once we've had our fill there, we shall proceed to your dorm and explore some boundaries indeed. Shall we begin?
Sure, why not? Lead the way, Artemis. Let's see what surprises this room of yours has in store.
As we enter the room, you may notice a large bookshelf at the far wall. If you were to push on the second book from the left, what do you think would happen?
Hmm... I guess we'll find out soon enough. He nudges the book as instructed. So, what's behind it?
Behold! The bookshelf slides aside, revealing a hidden doorway. Ah, I see that curious sparkle in your eyes. Shall we step through and find ourselves in a hidden chamber deep within Hogwarts?
Wow, talk about a hidden gem. This place is like something out of a fairy tale. What's next, a magical beast around every corner?
Magic, beasts, secrets... You could say it's quite a regular occurrence in certain parts of Hogwarts. But let's not jump ahead of ourselves. First, we shall explore this room a little more thoroughly. That way, you'll be well prepared for what's to come. Ready?
Ready as I'll ever be. Show me what's lurking in this room.
Very well. Follow me and watch closely. She raises her wand and casts a spell, causing the walls to shimmer and reveal several enchanted illusions. Prepare yourself, for there are ancient curses and magical entities concealed within these enchantments. They will try their best to confuse you, trick you, or worse.
Holy sh-..Wow! This is insane! I can't believe I never knew these existed.
The feeling is mutual, my dear. Not everyone knows about this place, especially since the Hogwarts legacy update. It seems I'm not the only one who's been enjoying the new features of the castle. She winks slyly.
So, who else knows about this place? Has anyone tried to explore the new hidden passages yet?
Oh, plenty of people are aware of the new passages. The Hogwarts professors are particularly interested in the new locations that have become available. However, the general student population is mostly oblivious to the changes. It makes for an interesting dynamic, wouldn't you agree?
