Grace smiled at Thom would had burst in. She frowned at Helia and could not completely understand her frustration on this certain issue. It was another mystery at her strange school, just like the disappearing socks, but this particular subject seemed to have gotten Helia all in a not in twisted into her own world.
When Ethan broke the silence she looked at him with a puzzle expression. She smiled awkwardly at him and said, "I'm Grace, by the way," and held out her hand to the taller boy.

She gave a half hearted laugh, feeling rather silly in expecting that everyone would know what she was talking about. She took a deep breath, trying to calm down, then looked at Ethan, "I don't know who it is. In class today Professor Erikkson said that a hundred years ago Harry Potter and the Dark Lord's souls created a body to hide themselves in. The body had its own soul that was in charge and this boy had a guardian that tried to keep him from finding out about the other souls in his body. I want to know who it was." she said. She decided that speaking in past-tense would creep people out less, even thugh she still believed that somewhere there was a hundred year old man wishing to die but unable to because he had three souls... or somethign like that.

"But where do we start?" Grace asked exaspirated. "There must be a thousand possiblities of where he could have been educated!"

"A thosuand or more... so maybe where he was educated is not the best place to start looking." her mind began to spin again. She thoguht about all the things that might associate themselves with this situation. She turned to the Ravenclaw, "Do you have any Daily Prophits or wizarding newspapers of the like from about a hundred years ago, give or take a few?" she asked hopefully. Perhaps there would be some kind of recognition page honoring highly gifted students of the time.

"Well the official consensus," Erich began hesitantly, "at least as it was told publically was that they both died in combat here. There are alot of people even now who're convinced otherwise but it's hard to get a handle on a conspiracy theory a hundred years afterward." Hoping he did not sound like a know it all, Ethan blindly continued speaking, never so excited as when he had people to talk to. "I mean, after the the embarassment that came with the rather spectacular death of Erich Aubry, the next boy hero--- not to mention the two world wars that followed--- it's understandable that the whole thing fell out of vogue. Harry was gone, Erich had been a complete failure and everyone else was used up in politics and fighting over the next eighty years." Ethan felt like he had been speaking for hours and began to feel a blush coming on.

'Erich Aubry...' there was that name again. After the chills had subsided Halo tilted her head, "You... wouldn't happen to know where Erich Aubry schooled, would you?" she asked cautiously, but with an excited glimmer in her eye.

Grace laid her hands flat on the tabled and leaned on it, head hung in frustration. She listened to Ethan jabber on but when he mentioned Erich Aubry. Her head snapped up and she looked at Helia as she spoke. She knew they were thinking the same thing.

It was then that she felt a tug in her pocket. She opened her robe and watched her wand fly off, "What in Merlins name!?" she muttered. She looked at Grace, then at Etahn, "Heh, sorry but... You know, Ollivander blood." she darted off after her wand, "GET BACK HER YOU DUMB PIECE OF WOOD!" she screamed running out of the library and after her wand.
