╔══════════════╗ Second Lesson: Famous Alchemists in History ╚══════════════╝
Professor Angel of House Ravenclaw stood from his perched position behind his tidy desk once his students had entered the classroom, at once, he bounded around the edge of his desk more than enthusiastic to begin the day. As the students settled themselves within their seats, he casually withdrew his wand and offered a simple flick of the wrist. The motionless chalk nestled beside the board jumped with a sudden shock and began to write.
”Quite possibly the most famous alchemists in history are written on the board. For house points, can anyone give me any examples as to what contributions these historical figures had made to alchemy?”

╔══════════════╗ Third Lesson: Expono Spell ╚══════════════╝
As the professor of alchemy entered the classroom, he ushered a simple wave of his wand to create a flutter of his handwriting to appear on the chalkboard at the front of the class. Striding diligently across the rows of desks and chairs, Angel reached the front of his class and turned to meet his students. ”Welcome back class, today, we’re going to review the desires of an alchemist during the boom of the renaissance. Now, during the renaissance era is when the height of a prolonged lifestyle sparked birth, along with the desire to be rich and famous. So, of course, there had always been a search for a stone which could convert ordinary metals to gold, immortality for the spirit and soul, and the creation of artificial life.
“Now, unbeknownst to many alchemists, the true reasons behind the study of alchemy was not only for science, but for spiritual ambition as well. Alchemists believe that there is a quintessence, where the Above can be created in the Below, thus, heaven on earth in spirit and mind. So, with that in mind, there was only a very small percentage of alchemists true to the ideal of discovering the truth of alchemy, which is why in ancient texts, it can be impossible to discern which ingredients is being used because of the basic, generic terms used for each items.
“All of this was to dissuade the callous and greedy of heart from discovering the truths behind alchemy, and it’s because of those wizards that we have spells like Expono to help identify what type of man you may be dealing with during experiments and such,
“Also, during that era, alchemists had branched off on their own study of branch of magic, transmutations, which is essentially exactly like transfigurations, the only difference is that these spells were created during alchemists during the peak of their research to recieve the name, although it has becoming rarer and rarer to hear the word transmutation over transfiguration….
“Anyway, this spell is quite exhausting and requires a keen sense of mind, but the wand movements and pronunciation are quite simple in comparison. A simple and gentle tap on the temple with your wand, and then guide the tip down the towards the heart as you recite the incantation, ex-poe-NU.
The trick is to imagine yourself in the darkness, you can't see who your facing, but you know they're there, so use every bit of information you've ever seen or heard from them to help shift their body into the form that best represents their motives, their ambition in life, the animal, the color, the feeling that best describes them. All of this, will lead you to an illusion cast over the victim that's intricately tied to the one who cast the spell. It's always hard to decipher the meaning of these illusions, for now, you'll feel it well enough in your guts...
"Now, group up and, taking turns, give it a go…”
Quote: Name of the spell: Expono Pronunciation of the spell: EX-poe-nu Meaning behind the name: Expono is Latin for exposed Effects of the spell: This spell transfigures the effected wizard to form into a version of their true selves, which is only applicable upon certain wizards depending upon if that wizard has cast themselves behind a mask. Works well with emotional and spiritual means. Wand movements: Gently tap the tip of the wand against the wizard’s temple, and then guide the wand towards the heart while reciting the incantation. Is there a distance requirement?: Must be in immediate distance Are the effects lasting?: Only for several minutes Anything else?: Spell works best upon the sleeping, or the unexpected (often does not work at all.) Often portrays the victim in different lights, different colors, and illusions of animalistic silhouettes which can all mean different things depending on the wizard casting the spell

❝And all the roads we have to walk are winding; And all the lights that lead us there are blinding❞

❝Today is gonna be the day that they're gonna throw it back to you By now you should've somehow realized what you gotta do I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do about you now❞ ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Hᴇᴀᴛʜᴇʀ scribbled down her notes as Professor Angel spoke. They were learning a new spell today, which was always exciting. The teen loved learning new spells, for her dream of becoming a great dueler burned on inside her. Although, this spell in particular might not help her in that field. As her notes came to an end, and the professor dismissed them to practice amongst themselves, Heather found Chase standing before her, asking to be his partner. She smiled at him. "I'd love to be your partner, Chase." she said, standing and pulling her wand from her bag. Turning it over in her hand, she faced her boyfriend, still grinning. "Ready when you are, Chasey." the teen chimed, snickering silently at her pet name for the Ravenclaw. Hopefully she hadn't embarrassed him too badly.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ❝Backbeat, the word was on the street that the fire in your heart is out I'm sure you've heard it all before but you never really had a doubt I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do about you now❞

╔══════════════╗ First Lesson: Desires of an Alchemist ╚══════════════╝
Striding diligently across the rows of desks and chairs, Angel reached the front of his class and turned to meet his students. ”Welcome back, hope your summer was well. Welcome to Alchemy III, I am Professor Juan Angel Amorocho, call me Professor Angel, or just professor is fine. Today, we’re going to learn about the desires of an alchemist during the boom of the renaissance. Now, during the renaissance era is when the height of a prolonged lifestyle sparked birth, along with the desire to be rich and famous. So, of course, there had always been a search for a stone which could convert ordinary metals to gold, immortality for the spirit and soul, and the creation of artificial life.
“Now, unbeknownst to many alchemists, the true reasons behind the study of alchemy was not only for science, but for spiritual ambition as well. Alchemists believe that there is a quintessence, where the Above can be created in the Below, thus, heaven on earth in spirit and mind. So, with that in mind, there was only a very small percentage of alchemists true to the ideal of discovering the truth of alchemy, which is why in ancient texts, it can be impossible to discern which ingredients is being used because of the basic, generic terms used for each items.
“An alchemist must engage his studies with a pure heart if his desire is to achieve spiritual perfection and immortality. Essentially, you can almost call alchemy a religion, and the quintessence, heaven. But you will only be learning practical alchemy in this class, but there is a genuine scientific merriment to the philosophical aspect of alchemy. Which, I can explain very simply with this quote from an unknown alchemist.”
Quote: “Would to God . . . all men might become adepts in our Art -- for then gold, the great idol of mankind, would lose its value, and we should prize it only for its scientific teaching.”
”Now, I do believe that concludes our lesson for the day, any questions?”

Cameron smirked when class was dismissed. Well, that was boring, he thought, recalling how badly he wanted to just close his eyes and fall asleep during Professor Angel's lecture. Could anyone really blame him, though? Not only was he bored, but he was tired! Alchemy was his last class of the day.
As long as you love me, we could be starving, we could be homeless, we could be broke. As long as you love me.

Cameron, being a muggleborn, hadn't actually known who half the alchemists on the board were. He only knew of Nicolas Flamel because they learned about him in A History of Magic a couple years ago, and Albus Dumbledore was supposed to be taught this year though several students have already talked about him. Plus, he appeared on some of the Chocolate Frogs' cards. What did Professor Powell say about Nicolas Flamel? The boy tried to remember, but only bits and pieces came to mind. "Wasn't Nicolas Flamel the one who made some stone? Erm, what was it called?" He snapped his fingers trying to remember.
