"Unicorns, once. Hippogriffs for quite some time. We also had visitors from a rival school who brought the most majestic flaming horses you ever did see, quite intimidating in their own right."
Her lips quirked into a grin. "Admittedly, I didn't often try to ride any of the former, aside from Buckbeak, I suppose. So you're bolder than I am in that respect."
