BIC:
Autumn walked over to Dale and Josh and started helping them lift down portraits. After listening to Dale and she turned to him and asked,
"South America? not much we can do about that one is there? You seem to know a lot about these stones..."

Dale moved another painting, commenting to Josh,
"I don't know why I agreed to help you. I mean, I know the stones are evil, my entire family does, but I don't like to take sides." Musing for a minute as he probed the blank wall with his wand, he said, "My dad said there was rumours of there being one at the site of the next Quidditch World Cup, you know in South America."
"Oh really?" Josh said. "Well, that is unreachable for anyone here then, isn't it?"
"Well, we got to keep the stones safe from the wrong people, I think...?"
"I guess so" Autumn said turning to Darinda. "Alex had a vision about a book in the library, and when we read it, it said that one of the stones was hidden here in the school. So we thought one of the safest places in the school would have to be the headmistress' office." Autumn finished as she continued searching.
Dale, with a knowing smile, said, "Because other, darker forces are at work to find them. It was only recently found out, thanks to these lot, that stones are powerful alone, each controlling a different thing. One is said to control the force of magic itself, and evil people are searching for it in earnest."
Dale smiled ruefully,
"I'm afraid I don't. There is a guy in Hogsmeade who might, though. Have any of you been to the houses in Hogsmeade before?" Smiling again at the looks on some of their faces, he contniued, "There's a man called Simon. He is an, as he calls it, antique dealer. He would know which one it is. Does anyone know when the next Hogsmeade trip."
