While Harry was thinking, Hagrid continued answering Harry's various questions.
"...In recent decades, persecution in the wizarding world has actually just been pure-bloods and half-bloods against wizards from Muggle families..."
Hagrid felt he'd said too much. He shouldn't discuss such matters with a child—he should talk more about the ...

Night fell, and the expected storm arrived.
Rolling waves crashed against the walls of the small wooden hut. Fierce winds rattled several grimy windows with constant clatter.
