Chapter 7 – Beast, beings, and creatures

ADVERTISEMENT

Introduction

Hello everyone, welcome to our Walkthrough for Chapter Seven of Year Four of Harry Potter Hogwarts Mystery. In the previous chapter, you met Charlie and discussed the plan for entering the Forbidden Forest.

You came to the conclusion that it would be a smart move to bring along one more person. You went to the Forbidden Forest but were unable to find much. After consulting with Tulip, you searched Jacob’s room and found a drawing pointing to a Grove inside the forest.

You went there again, hoping to find more clues. However, instead of finding any leads, you encountered a centaur named Torvus. Sadly, he’s not very fond of your brother since he got betrayed by him.

Because of that, you had to duel Torvus. Luckily, you managed to win and in the end, you agreed to search for the arrowhead Jacob stole from him. In exchange, Torvus will assist you with locating the next Cursed Vault.

As always, complete actions by tapping on various glowing objects in order to fill up the star meter and earn stars. Prioritize bonus progress actions to save energy.

Also, keep in mind that each time you obtain a star, you’ll be given a mini-task. Complete it successfully and you’ll be awarded ten Empathy points.

When you are done, hit the Collect button to claim your rewards and continue. Once you earn enough stars to unlock the lesson, head back to the classroom to attend it.

Learning Cistem Aperio requires you to earn five stars within three hours. Avoid starting this lesson if your energy bar is empty since all five stars are needed to pass.

Approach this lesson in a similar way to the classes you took beforehand and you shouldn’t expect any trouble with it. During the lesson, Professor Flitwick will ask you a question about Cistem Aperio spell.

You’ll then learn that Charlie actually knows Torvus and intimidating as he might seem, he’s actually a good fellow. He is the only Centaur lonely enough to strike up a conversation with a human.
