Welcome to Charming, where swirling petticoats, the language of flowers, and old-fashioned duels are only the beginning of what is lying underneath…
After a magical attempt on her life in 1877, Queen Victoria launched a crusade against magic that, while tidied up by the Ministry of Magic, saw the Wizarding community exiled to Hogsmeade, previously little more than a crossroad near the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. In the years that have passed since, Hogsmeade has suffered plagues, fires, and Victorian hypocrisy but is still standing firm.
Thethe year is now 1894. It’s time to join us and immerse yourself in scandal and drama interlaced with magic both light and dark.

"Congratulations on making it as far as you have," Hamish said. If he was disappointed not to have any Hufflepuffs in this portion of the final, he didn't show it. Indeed, the professor was his usual, jovial self as he gave the last two standing the usual information. "You will be crafting an Invigoration Draught, and may begin...now!"

Thomas seemed rather pleased he had made it as far as he did. Even if he failed to win this round, he would look at it as some sort of progress toward his learning goals either way.
When Professor Darrow gave them the go ahead, he set to work gathering his ingredients and mentally going over all he knew about the Invigoration Draught. It seemed like a useful potion, especially to help energize someone who might have gotten a less than adequate amount of sleep. (Or maybe that was just how he'd choose to use it.)
Carefully, he began to brew. When he had finished, he took a step back and waited, quietly surveying his work.
It made perfect sense to Trix that she had found herself in the final with a fellow Ravenclaw but it was also moderately irritating - her chances of winning had plummeted. Still, she set to her task diligently, taking slightly longer to finish than the younger student but producing what she hoped was a fine invigoration potion.

One did not need to be an expert to tell that the consistency, colour, and scent of Miss Borgin's potion was clearly the winner. Hamish declared the young prefect the victor, casting an apologetic smile in young Mr. Montgomery's direction.
