He told Kyle that the black dragons rioted because an unknown wizard...most likely Voldemort and his Death Eaters, blew up the highest cliff in the south of the Hexagonal Islands.
"It's just a destroyed cliff, that's no big deal." Kyle didn't understand.
Cliffs can be found almost everywhere in the Hebrides. They are not dragon eggs, nor are they the location of nests. Is it worth making them so angry?
In Kyle's impression, the black dragons of the Hexadiles have not left there for two centuries. All previous conflicts were resolved within the islands. As a result, they now want to look for the culprit outside...
"The cliff is not important, but what if that's where they choose their leader?" Chris sighed. "All the previous leaders of the Hexagonal Black Dragons died on that cliff and were born again in the same place. It can be said that it is the most important place for them. It's not an exaggeration to call it a holy place. But it was suddenly blown up."
Well, now Kyle can understand why the fire dragons are so violent.
"Have you found out who did it?" he asked.
"It would be great if we could find out." Chris shook his head. "However, the opponent's spell can blow up a cliff. There are not many wizards of this level. We guess it is the You-Know-Who. Only he, or a few Death Eaters together, can cause such huge destructive power."
"Mysterious man?" Kyle was even more confused. "Hasn't he been quiet the whole time? Why did he suddenly go to the Hexidiary Islands to cause trouble? What good would it do him to anger the dragon?"
"That's what we want to know." Chris poured himself a glass of whiskey. "Maybe they wanted to create chaos for us. If Newt hadn't used the Hungarian Horntail to calm the strongest black dragon in time, I'm afraid the nearby towns would have been in chaos.
"Even if the Ministry of Magic comes together, they won't be able to modify the memories of all the Muggles in such a short time."
Hungarian Horntail...
appease?
Kyle couldn't connect them together. As the most violent species of fire dragon, the Hungarian Horntail has never been calm, especially when facing other fire dragons. It would give the other party a tail without even meeting it, which was considered a weak character.
If Kyle guessed correctly, it should be physical appeasement. Once the strongest black dragon is defeated, the others will naturally calm down.
"What a troublemaker." Kyle couldn't help but ask, "Are you sure it's a Death Eater?"
"It's just a guess." Chris said, "But we found a lot of black magic nearby, as well as traces of burning Fiendfyre, so it must be them."
Kyle muttered a few words under his breath. It had to be said that if Voldemort's conspiracy succeeded, it would be a real trouble for the Ministry of Magic.
No wonder they have been so quiet recently. I didn't expect them to be waiting here... But to be honest, if it weren't for this incident, he would never have guessed Voldemort's true purpose.
It's really a stupid idea for them to come up with such a stupid idea to let the fire dragon riot.
After drinking the whiskey, Chris ate a whole plate of sandwiches and two grilled sausages before dragging his tired body back to the room.
After a while, in October, the weather gradually became colder, and Kyle finally waited for Nico's owl.
But to his disappointment, what the owl delivered was not a repaired time-turner, but a mirror.
Two-way mirror.
As soon as Kyle picked it up, Nico's face appeared inside.
"How have you been lately?" he asked with a smile.
"It's OK, but I'm a little anxious waiting." Kyle put the mirror on the table. "When I first saw the owl, I thought the time turner had been repaired."
"Be more patient." Nico said, "This thing is not that easy to repair. By the way, did you insist on drinking what I gave you?"
"Of course, I've never forgotten it." Kyle took out the bottle of 'raspberry juice', "I've always wanted to know what this thing is used for."
"To protect you from time interference." Nico explained: "Albus told me that the last time you used the time turner, your mind was confused for a while, right?"
"Indeed." Kyle nodded.
It should have been during his third year, when the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets was opened, and he was passively transported back a few months without knowing it.
It was from that time that I, who didn't know about the time turner, did many strange things.
For example, he insisted on hiding the basilisk. Under normal circumstances, he would have told Dumbledore about it long ago, but he just didn't want to say it at that time.
Rowena Ravenclaw later explained that she had made some arrangements that affected Kyle, who was in a time disarray.
This matter is a bit complicated. In short, Ravenclaw set up an unknown magic in Hogwarts, but this magic will only work on people whose time is disturbed.
In order to be disturbed, the time span must be at least more than two months. Ordinary time converters that can only go back to one or two days ago do not need to worry about this problem at all.
In other words, this is a magic spell targeting Kyle.
"But that happened many years ago. What does it have to do with now?" Kyle asked.
"When there are two selves in one time and space, your mind will become very unstable, which is why many wizards resist the time converter." Nico explained: "This potion is to solve this problem. As long as you drink it for a month, you will no longer be affected.
"If you want to rescue Albus, you must ensure that you are awake enough, so even if I repair the Time Turner, I will have to wait a month before I can give it to you."
"I see." Kyle nodded, "Thank you."
"Don't thank me, this is just necessary preparation," said Nico.
"So you came to me this time just to talk about this?"
"Isn't that what you asked me?"
"Huh? Sorry, I forgot."
"It's okay, I understand." Nico said with a smile, "I came to you this time because there is something I forgot to tell you before."
"what's up?"
"You still need to go somewhere," Nico said. "When you go back in time, you have to find Albus first, right?"
"Yeah, what's the problem?"
"Do you know where he is?" Nico asked.
Kyle's expression froze.
Don't tell me, he really doesn't know.
All he knew was that the Dumbledore family used to live in Godric's Hollow and were neighbors with Bathilda Bagshot.
But that is also where the young Dumbledore will appear, and what he needs to find is the Dumbledore who has returned to the past.
"It seems you have discovered it too." Nico shakily held up a thick book, "So before that, you need to find someone and ask him where Albus might go to hide."
"Who to go to... Professor McGonagall should know, right?"
"She doesn't know, or at least no one knows except one person."
"who's that person."
"Grindelwald, perhaps you have heard of this name."
Kyle was silent for a moment. "I've heard of him. He was Professor Dumbledore's greatest rival sixty years ago."
"They are also best friends." Nico said softly, "Although they don't want to admit it, they did have a deep friendship when they were young, and they understood each other's minds. Even now, this friendship has never faded, but it has been hidden, hidden in the deepest part of their hearts.
"If anyone could guess where Albus might appear if he traveled back in time, it's Grindelwald."
"I'm going to go find him?" Kyle couldn't help but raise his voice.
He didn't want to meet Grindelwald. As a dark wizard who almost overthrew the whole of Europe, that man was too evil. Kyle even heard that there was no one around him when he was imprisoned.
Because they were afraid that the guards would be bewitched by him and rebel directly. Some of his abilities were even more terrifying than his magic.
If he had a choice, Kyle would rather face Voldemort, of course, Voldemort after using the Horcruxes.
When he was Tom Riddle, he was actually not much worse than Grindelwald. He could make people around him follow him actively and willingly offer their loyalty.
It’s just that the two of them took different paths afterwards. Tom chose power and immortality, and voluntarily gave up some other things.
"Do we have to go?" Kyle was a little reluctant.
"Not really." Nico said, "If you're willing to take your time looking, you don't have to go, but I can't guarantee how long it will take."
"Then I'll make some noise so that Professor Dumbledore will see me." Kyle asked, "He must know me, right?"
"That's a solution." Nico nodded. "But can you guarantee that after seeing Ariana, Dumbledore will still be in the mood to pay attention to other things?"
Kyle stopped talking.
To be honest, he really couldn't guarantee it.
Dumbledore blamed himself for Ariana for a hundred years. After seeing her again, he could no longer see anything else.
"Okay, I'll go." Kyle sighed.
"Don't worry so much." Nico laughed, "You are going to save Dumbledore. Not only will he not do anything to you, he will even do his best to help you. I promise."
"I hope so." Kyle shook his head, stood up and said, "Then I'll go now."
"Where are you going."
"Of course it's Nurmengard. Isn't Grindelwald imprisoned there?"
"Then do you know where Nurmengard is?"
"It should be Austria. I remember seeing it in a book."
"But there must be no specific location in that book, or do you think that Nurmengard is just a tall tower built on the side of the road that anyone can go in and visit?"
Kyle paused and sat back down again, "Nico, if you say that, you must know how to get there."
"What a coincidence! I happened to have participated in the construction of Nurmengard." Nicol blinked and opened the book on the table. "Let me look for it... ah, I found it."
He stood the book up and held it in front of the mirror.
Kyle immediately came over.
He saw an old, faded photograph of a tall, round stone tower that looked a bit like a thick chimney.
There was a line of words below the photo. Kyle stared at it carefully for a while, but found that he could not remember the content at all.
After a few seconds, Nico closed the book in his hands.
"Wait, I haven't remembered yet."
"That's enough," Nico said. "Go now. The Time Turner should be repaired by the time you come back."

Chapter 827 Letter Paper
Austria, this place is quite famous in the wizarding world.
Of course, this fame does not refer to the place of Nurmengard. Although Grindelwald was very famous, that was sixty years ago after all. After more than half a century, his fame has been almost completely eroded.
Especially for those young wizards who are still in school, few people know who Grindelwald is.
The reason why this place is famous is that the International Confederation of Wizards has held many meetings here.
