The eighth and seventh year students entered their first DADA class of the year, they wondered what this new profesor could possibly teach them, when in war they were forced to learn things, things that saved their lives. Most of them knew more stuff about how to defend themselves against the dark arts than most of their previous professors, so, what were they doing going to that class? What could the professor possibly teach them?
Was it even worthy to attend the class? They would have to wait and see what their new professor had planned for them. To say that they weren't taken aback by what their new professor had prepared for their lesson would be a lie.
Their new professor started the class by explaining what they would be working with in his class, boggarts, thing that made all of them laugh, they had yet another Lockhart "You can laugh all you want, but keep in mind that you all are not any longer innocent 13 year old kid, you all went through war, some of you had it harder than other, but still you all went through war" he paused and looked at each of his students in the eyes as if to say 'I am talking to you, about you' "If your worst fear is still spiders, a clown, a zombie or your grandma, I will be surprise" he placed his hands in the table and leaned himself towards " believe me when I say that your fears right now are way worst that what they were years ago, believe when I say that it will be harder to remember the spell to beat the boggart, believe me when I say that facing a boggart now, after a war, after seeing and maybe also causing death, after everything, will be hard, will require a lot of self control, will require for you to be able to put you feelings aside, and that what I am testing you all at"
