Part 3

Since group 2 finished first and they figured out here they need to go next, there were the first group to get to the entrance hall.
Followed by group 1 and group 3 at the same time (even tho group 1 was the last group in part 2, group 3 had trouble deciding where they have to go, side eye Oggy sorry).
Group 4 is the last group to get to the entrance hall since they couldn’t decide if they need to go there or to the auditorium.


1. Dead parents society (and Michelle)

In the library Professor Vlahos offers Team 1 a choice of ancient artifacts tied to the history of the academy’s books. One of these objects holds the key to their next destination. What do you go for first?

You had some trouble picking this time, eventually you decided to pick the Unfinished Scroll and it was the correct choice. However, you will not get in time to the forbidden wing before one of the 2 teams opens the correct door.

4. TAA

You also had some trouble picking an item, but you were faster. You decided to pick an ancient celestial globe and it was the correct choice. However, you will not get in time to the forbidden wing before one of the 2 teams opens the correct door.


I was paying attention to who voted first, when blah blah sooooo…:

Group 3 was the first group to pick the right objects, with Oggy suggesting they go for a plant with singing leaves. Listening closely and carefully, the plant revealed a hidden spell with the final clue for their next location.
Group 2 was second, Nessa picking a mysterious recipe book. Upon closer inspection, a page reveals a hidden spell with the final clue for their next location.

Group 3 and 2 are tied!!! This next poll might decide a winner?
Both groups were instructed to go the forbidden wing.


Pick again friends

2. Adrians Favs

Team 2 hurried through the hallways of Ninth House, excitement and tension building as they approached the forbidden section of the school. The air around them felt heavy and even the walls seemed to close in as they got closer to their final location. Every student had heard rumors about this eerie part of the building—whispers of locked doors that hadn’t been opened in decades, rooms filled with ancient secrets, and spells forgotten by time.

At last, they arrived at the entrance. The door to the Forbidden Wing was large, covered in dust, with intricate carvings of magical symbols. Team 3 was right behind them, got in time to witness the door slowly opening as if it had been expecting them, revealing a long corridor lined with doors.

They knew what had to be done. They just learned a spell to unlock one of these mysterious doors. But which one?

The path leading to this part of the school felt far longer than it had ever seemed before. The air had grown colder, and the dim lighting gave the impression that they were no longer in a school but in a place forgotten by time.
Everyone knew the stories. The Forbidden Wing was sealed off for good reason. Yet here they were, standing at the threshold, holding a plant with singing leaves. It had given them a clue - an ancient spell they were to cast. But first, they had to figure out which door would open.

Team 3 hesitated between door 3 and door 4, their tension rising as the forbidden wing loomed around them. It was eerie, every creak of the floorboards echoed ominously, amplifying their indecision. As they debated, they noticed team 2 already gathered at door 3, preparing to cast their spell. The pressure mounted, and with little time left to linger, Team 3 made the only choice left - door 4, which Desdemona suggested from the beggining.

Stepping forward, they took out the object they’d obtained earlier in the scavenger hunt and whispered the incantation, their voices low but steady. The door creaked in response before swinging open to reveal what lay behind. Beyond Door 4 was the Enchanted Archive, an ancient storage for magical items and relics that were once too powerful or dangerous to be left in circulation. The room was vast, filled with shelves of enchanted objects. From glowing crystals to aged scrolls, the atmosphere was alive with the remnants of old magic. It also holds the personal journals of past headmasters and professors, which might come useful to one who get the hold of it… If they ever do.

A large, ornate pedestal stood at the center of the room, bearing what seemed like next and final clue, shimmering in golden light. Team 3 approached cautiously, aware that even the faintest disturbance could trigger a trap. But there was no clue - team 3 had won.

To be continued on the main thread
