I’d love to join in! The north seems like a great start.

I have heard that there had been some ancient runes located just outside of Hogwarts, but I never sought them out before. I went out to conduct some independent research, curious to find out where they were and what they detailed. It took some walking and checking rocks like a madwoman, but I eventually found a set. The first set of runes consisted of Algiz, Laguz, and Hagalaz, which meant protection, alke, and hail. It seemingly translated to "protect the lake from hail", which I could only assume was about the Black Lake. The second set consisted of Ansuz, Gyfu, and Jēra, which meant gift, god, and harvest. It seems that if the lake is protected from hail, a god will gift us a good harvest.

The runes used by the remote Wizarding community involve a lot more circular and angular types of runes than those seen from the Ancient Runes class. For example, one rune in particular was curved to resemble a crescent moon, leading into a line of three circles, which is defined as the rune for dreams and insights. Another rune contained a triangle with three lines protruding from its right side that spiraled into each other, which was described as being for a movement or a type of flowing energy.

Violet sabrewing hummingbirds, also known scientifically as Campylopterus hemileucurus, are a larger species of hummingbirds that can be found in Costa Rica and Honduras, as well as in the northern parts of Mexico, Guatemala, and El Salvador. The violet sabrewing can be identified by its violet, green, black, blue, and white colorations. The location and brightness of these colors vary depending on whether the individual is male or female, with males typically having brighter colors. However, there is one color that is lacking in the youth of the species, which is the color violet. Overall, they can be easily defined by their distinctive violet throats.

The clouds in the sky move with a flow, As the hues of the sky turn indigo. Up above, the moon takes on a comforting glow, The night air's wind is beginning to blow. A loud whine signals the start of the show. Blue, green, yellow and red, Light up the sky, reaching out as they spread. Fireworks pop off together until the finale comes to a head, The once indigo sky is now smokey grey instead. Before soon, the evidence of the show was gone, leaving not even a shred.

The sky’s too quiet, a fading shade of blue, Like the echo of words that we never knew. I walk on the beach with the impending rain on my mind, Looking for answers that I could never find. The blue of the sky changes too soon, leaving me cold, Like a story untold or a memory sold. Without you, the ocean is silent, and the stars barely glow, And the blue in my heart seems never to let go.

The color Emerald Green was very popular in the 19th century, whether in the form of dyes for clothing or as a paint color. It was relatively inexpensive to produce at the time, and with green being a challenging color to achieve, it was ideal to keep the ingredients consistent. A report in 1822 revealed the toxicity of the ingredients used to make the color, specifically the high levels of arsenic in it. However, it remained widely sold and worn due to mass production and the color's popularity. The original composition of the pigment that contained arsenic wasn't banned until the early 1900s, and even after it was banned, it remained popular, with many pieces of art created with the paint color in the following years.
