After a night of discussing both history and business with Principal Porter, I was finally released and allowed to return to my room.
Honestly, I had nothing to say. Principal Porter could just read all the stuff I showed him. I was merely just regurgitating past scholars' work, without having any of my own ideas or arguments in the mix. Mostly because I was a half-baked scholar who was more interested in magic than studying. I liked reading and writing, that was for sure, but I preferred to be practicing my own magic.
