correct,
and yes you may ^_^

+5 points to Ravenclaw (right, is that ur house?)

Okay now I will start telling the story of the Deadly Hollows. A page of a time.

There were once 3 brothers who traveling along a lonely, winding road at twilight. In time, the brothers reached a river too deep to wade through and dangerous to swim across. However, these brothers were learned in the magical arts, and so they simply waved their wands and made a bridge appear across the treacherous water. They were halfway across it when they found their path blocked by a hooded figure.

----
Okay here is your question.
Who is this hooded figure?


message 9: by Laura (new)

Laura | 134 comments death!

Martina Warren (esmee) | 256 comments Mod
good job Lizzy, 3 points to Gryffindor ^_^

-----
Death Spoke to them. He was angry that he had been cheated out of 3 new victims, for travelers usually drowned in the river. But everyone knew that Death is cunning. He pretended to congratulate the 3 brothers upon their magic and said that each had earned a prize for been clever enough to evade him.
------

Why is death angry?


message 12: by Laura (new)

Laura | 134 comments bc he was cheated and no likes that


message 13: by Laura (new)

Laura | 134 comments fine


message 14: by Martina, Head of Gryffindor (new)

Martina Warren (esmee) | 256 comments Mod
both correct, good ^_^

------
so the oldest brother, who was a combative man, asked for a wand more powerful than any in existence:a wand that must always win duels for its owner, a wand worthy of a wizard/witch who had conquered Death! So Death crossed to an elder tree on the banks of the river, fashioned a wand from a branch that hung there, and gave it to the oldest brother.
-----
What did the oldest brother wanted?


message 15: by Laura (new)

Laura | 134 comments the unbeatable wand


message 16: by Martina, Head of Gryffindor (new)

Martina Warren (esmee) | 256 comments Mod
okay next question:
What is the name of this unbeatable wand?

Hint: Dumbledore owns it before he died


message 17: by Laura (new)

Laura | 134 comments the elder wand!


message 18: by Martina, Head of Gryffindor (new)

Martina Warren (esmee) | 256 comments Mod
correct
-----

Then the second brother, who was an arrogant man, decided that he wanted to humiliate Death still further, and asked for the power to recall others from Death. So Death picked up a stone from the riverbank and gave it to the 2nd brother. and told him that the stone woukd have bring back the dead.
------
What did the second brother asked for?


message 19: by Laura (new)

Laura | 134 comments the ressuration stone


message 20: by Martina, Head of Gryffindor (new)

Martina Warren (esmee) | 256 comments Mod

message 23: by Martina, Head of Gryffindor (new)

Martina Warren (esmee) | 256 comments Mod
now we are continuing the lesson :)
----

And then Death asked the 3rd and youngest brother what would he like. The youngest brother was the humblest and also the wisest of the brothers, and he did not trust Death at all. So he asked for something that would enable him to go forth from that place without being followed by Death. And Death, unwillingly, handed over his own cloak of Invisibilty.
-----
What did the 3rd brother asked for?
What is he known for out from his two brothers?


message 24: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 881 comments the 3rd brother asked for the invisibilty cloak and he was the wiset and the hunblest of all the brothers


message 25: by Martina, Head of Gryffindor (new)

Martina Warren (esmee) | 256 comments Mod
Correct :)
-----

then Death stood aside and allowed the 3 brothers to continue on their way and they did so, talking with wonder of the adventure they had had, and admiring Death gifts. In due course the brothers separated each for his own destination.
-----
What happen to the three brothers now?

Jessica | 881 comments the 1st brother brags about his new wand and he dies the 2nd brother killed himself because he saw the one person he's always loved and wanted to be with her and the 3rd brother took off his cloak and gave it to his son and greeted Death as an old friend
