The next day Dumbledore came to see me. During the middle of class, he (yes, Dumbledore himself came!) knocked on the door and asked for me to follow him. After a lot of twists and turns, we came to a stop in front of a huge painting, and together we marched inside an enormous room filled to the brim with books, weapons, magical items, and training space.

My mouth dropped in awe, staring at what seemed to be a training room fit for the most experienced aurors. Finally, I managed to pluck up enough courage to open my mouth and ask what was going on.
