Mysterious Tree (Ollie)

For the two years that Phin had been at Hogwarts, he had never been as far as Hagrid's hut or the mysterious funny looking tree that sat not to far from it. Today, he decided to be brave. He didn't like going to places where he had never been. It made him feel uncomfortable, and unsafe. But today, he was breaking limits, letting go, and trying new grounds (literally, he was going to a different part of the grounds he didn't know much about).

He had starred at the tree from a distance, and had always wanted to know what it was for. He didn't know if Professor Gracen had mentioned it in any of her History classes, or if it was in any book. He was now at the stone circle. He could see the tree clearly from there. He decided to go down closer. It was then he realized it was...moving...Confused, he got a little bit more closer, but not to close, he didn't want to get beat up by the branches. It was then he saw a boy. He could tell the boy was maybe a year older, but in the same house as him. He asked, "Do you know what this tree is for?"

He was curious.
