Compounding to Sean's worries. He hoped that he was making a right decision with entrusting Sarah with this information. On one hand, he didn't want to get Sarah hurt because of him and Fig's actions. But at the same time. Sarah and her Father had saved Sean at Liverpool. He owed a life debt. So he told her everything that was going on. "...and when we were in Gringotts Bank. We encountered a Pensieve. An object that can show us our memories. Two former Professors there. That was when we encountered Ranrok. He was looking for something as well." Sean had recapped for Sarah. 

"So... that's what Ranrok was talking about when he spoke to Rookwood and Harlow in Hogsmeade?" Sarah asked. 

"It's a guess, but a logical one at that." Sean answered. 

"So was... Professor Fig's wife searching for these memories as well?" Sarah asked. 

"I think so." Sean answered. 

"But why would they want to go after you of all people?" Sarah asked. 

Sean had already pondered it. "Probably because they want to finish what they started in Ireland. To kill me." He answered. And he hesitated. "As part of a Prophecy." 

"A Prophecy?" Sarah asked and she scoffed at that as they both walked into the Greenhouse. "Sorry, Sean. It's not that I don't doubt you. It's just the idea of Prophecies. Always confusing and they never make any sense until they actually happen. But you can never know how it will work out." She explained. "And this... Spirit that spoke to you in the form of a Wolf. Said it was a Task that you have to perform?" 

"One of them. The Spirit left before I could ask that question about more." Sean answered. "I guess that's something I'll have to find myself." 

"Well... just know that you're not alone, Sean." Sarah assured. "I'll help you in whatever way I can." She declared. 

"Thank you, Sarah." Sean thanked. And with that, Sean could finally take a good look at the Greenhouse. Windows all around them on all directions. As well as large and flowing plants everywhere and nearly on every surface. And Butterflies flying around them. And a young woman with long red hair, and a green flowered hat, with green robes on her. Sean recognized her from the feast. 

"That is Professor Garlick." Sarah introduced pointing to Garlick. "The Herbology Professor." 

Sean could also see a Hufflepuff student running up to Garlick all so suddenly. "Good morning, Professor Garlick." She greeted. 

"How wonderful it is to see you gain, Lenora, dear!" Garlick replied with a smile on her face. "Oh, here. You'll need these for today's class." She handed the girl with brown hair a basket of something. As well as a type of gourd for the girl. "A little treat for your Auntie. 

"Oh, um-" Lenora started to say. 

"Lenora Everleigh." Sarah whispered. "Dormmate." 

Lenora had walked away. 

And right as Sarah and Sean walked up to Professor Garlick. "How delightful to see you again, Miss. Parker." Garlick greeted warmly. "And I see you've brought us the newest shamrock in our garden." She looked at Sean with a such loving face. 

"Hello." Sean greeted as he took an item out of Garlick's basket. "Sean Cormag." 

That was when Garlick turned to the whole class. "Class, please welcome the newest shamrock in our garden." She informed. "Sean Cormag." 

The Whole class just looked awkwardly at Sean. Although Sean could swear that he did hear one student say: "Celt..." under their breath. 

"We do look forward to growing together." Garlick replied.
