Archaeologists at Hogwarts

After being notified, Principal Dumbledore quickly came to the depths of the Forbidden Forest. When he rushed to Toby's location, Toby had already dug out the stone base from the depths of the ground and placed it near the entrance of the cave.

"headmaster!"

As soon as Dumbledore appeared, Toby walked over in surprise. He seemed to want to hug the principal, but Dumbledore forced him back with his eyes.

Toby had no choice but to stop and pretend to be careful and scared. Dumbledore sighed helplessly: "Toby, Toby... forget it, where is the base you mentioned? If we solve it quickly,

If so, we still have time to attend the Christmas banquet."

Obviously, even Principal Dumbledore can't do anything about Toby's "hobby", and it's impossible for Toby to steal the Pensieve without telling Principal Dumbledore, unless he doesn't want to do it at Hogwarts.

.

"here."

Toby excitedly walked to the pedestal. Principal Dumbledore walked back and forth around the pedestal several times, carefully looking at the ancient runes engraved on it.

"It does look very similar." The principal commented, "It does seem to be a pair with the pensieve."

He took out his wand and waved it hard, and the pensieve appeared out of thin air. Toby quickly caught the stone basin.

The two looked at each other. Dumbledore was not going to waste time, so Toby carefully placed the stone basin on the groove on the top of the base. Dumbledore raised his wand and was secretly on guard.

Al, who climbed onto the principal's shoulder, opened his eyes wide - at the moment when the pensieve and the base were connected, the ancient runes' engravings shone slightly. Then, more appeared on all sides of the base.

Runes, but the runes that appear this time are no longer related to the functions of magical creations, but lines of text that can be read.

Toby had taken a prerequisite course in ancient runes, and he translated the text:

"The bravery of the swamp,"

“The beauty of a tranquil riverside,”

"The Mercy of the Open Valley,"

"Shrewdness in the cold mire,"

as well as......

"Foresight of a lush forest..."

After reading these five lines of text, Toby was silent for a long time, feeling as if his heart was surging, as if he had discovered something extraordinary.

It’s really remarkable.

There is no doubt that bravery corresponds to Godric Gryffindor, beauty corresponds to Rowena Ravenclaw, kindness corresponds to Helga Hufflepuff, and shrewdness corresponds to Sasha

Ratcha Slytherin.

But now, the origin of the fifth unknown person appears on the pedestal - the vision of a lush forest.

Even Principal Dumbledore's expression became solemn, his light blue eyes revealing thoughts and memories.

He suddenly told a rumor.

"It is said that the Pensieve was once buried at the site where Hogwarts was founded. It has a history older than Hogwarts. It was a creation from a distant era. It was later acquired by the founders and passed down from generation to generation for Hogwarts.

Used by the principals of Ci.”

"Then the pedestal may have been built later." Toby expressed his guess: "And the words on the pedestal are actually engraved with history, and they are also witnesses of the discovery of the pensieve -"

"The First Witness."

The answer is already apparent.

Before Hogwarts was established, there were five original witnesses.

Toby's eyes shone brightly, and he suddenly looked at Principal Dumbledore.

"It's a centaur!"

He suddenly babbled: "Don't the centaurs always say that this is their Forbidden Forest? But the Forbidden Forest appeared next to Hogwarts, and the base happened to be buried deep in the Forbidden Forest...

..The fifth witness was a centaur, and Slytherin was not the first founder to part ways, the centaur was! The centaur named Foresight!"

"This makes sense. The centaurs are already good at divination magic - whether it is observing the stars or their methods of burning herbs - foresight can just become the code name of the centaurs."

"Why is it that the centaur named Foresight refuses to co-found Hogwarts and instead comes to the Forbidden Forest——"

"It's not coming." Dumbledore corrected: "It's the same creation, but the centaurs created the Forbidden Forest. This place was indeed planted from saplings by the centaurs."

Principal Dumbledore's statement confirmed Toby's guess that there was indeed a fifth founder.

"You and Al should go back to the castle first."

Dumbledore ordered: "It is more appropriate for me to take over the remaining work."

Toby did not refuse. The remaining work had to be done with the centaurs, but the centaurs were very vigilant, and "Foresight" deliberately hid the base deep underground in order to prevent others from discovering him.

The connection with the wizards may even have fallen out with the four founders - it is definitely safer for Principal Dumbledore to come forward.

The centaurs respected Principal Dumbledore, but their attitude towards Toby was not so friendly, especially when he came to dig holes in the Forbidden Forest again and again - many times, Toby had an affair with a centaur named Bane.

There was a quarrel, and the other party was very angry and thought Toby was hurting the forest.

Toby returned to the castle in a relaxed mood and walked back to his office. There were already piles of Christmas gifts at the foot of his bed, including several roaring letters. However, Toby had obviously foreseen this. He wrote a letter on the envelope.

When I saw Angela's name, I simply flicked my wand and the letter burned, leaving no trace behind.

Toby rummaged through the pile of gifts with great anticipation, and finally found what he was looking for - a small bottle of Felixir, a gift from Professor Slughorn.

The amount of Felixir is not large, and it is probably only enough for one person to use for two hours, but Toby knows how difficult it is - usually, it takes more than half a year to brew Felixir.

Professor Raghorn probably started refining the potion after Toby left, and he didn't waste any time, so he was able to give this thoughtful gift in advance.

"It looks like I need to add a few more paragraphs to the special acknowledgments."

Toby smiled and asked Al to put the small bottle into his belly pocket.

They came to the auditorium where the banquet was about to begin, and the professors greeted Toby enthusiastically. They all received the special Christmas gift - in each professor's letter, they were the most beloved ones at Hogwarts.

Welcome professor.

"Why isn't Professor Quirrell here?" Toby asked curiously.

"He is not feeling well." Professor McGonagall replied: "Don't worry, he has already drank the potion to treat the cold. Poor Quirrell has become increasingly thin recently."

Little by little, students also poured into the auditorium, and finally Principal Dumbledore came back. He easily pulled Toby from Snape to the seat next to him. After announcing that the banquet had officially begun, he whispered:

"The centaurs also don't know about the existence of the seers. They have never heard of the fifth founder."

Toby nodded with twinkling eyes.

It seems that the people the seer wants to hide are not only wizards, but also centaurs.

The centaurs named the Seers hid the centaurs from future generations...another confusing history.

What an interesting discovery.
