Both Galadriel and Elrond fully supported Sylas's plan to open a School of Magic and welcome young students to study the art of wizardry.
They even proposed that Elven children be allowed to attend Hogwarts Castle as well.
Although the Elves were a naturally magical race, their gifts manifested differently from those of wizards. Rather than actively casting spells, Elven magic leaned toward a kind of intuitive communion with the world, an implicit integration with nature.
They could manipulate natural forces, bless objects with enchantments, and communicate through thought and spirit.
Only the High Elves, such as Galadriel and Elrond, retained the ability to perform structured, high-order spellcasting akin to wizardry.
Most Elves relied instead on their innate grace, formidable physiques, and centuries of discipline in swordsmanship and archery, supported by weapons imbued with sacred enchantments.
In truth, Elven magic resembled the ancient magic of the wizarding world, deep, primal, and governed by long, complex incantations.
A wand, however, acted as a conduit, a stabilizer that could channel and refine one's innate magical essence into clear, repeatable effects through words and gestures.
This principle applied to Elves as well.
Arwen, Elladan, Elrohir, Legolas, and others all possess wands made by Sylas. Empowered by these instruments, their magical ability grew far beyond that of ordinary Elves, their spells precise and potent.
In recent years, as wand shops flourished across Diagon Alley, more and more Elves had come to Hogsmeade, eager to purchase one of these prized tools, often paying with bags of mithril coins or rare gemstones.
They would also buy basic spellbooks from the magical bookstores, studying them with quiet diligence.
Though these books contained only elementary incantations and omitted any offensive magic, the Elves still regarded them as treasures, gateways to a power long dormant within their race.
In time, an intriguing sight began to emerge among the Elven communities:
Elves wielding a slender wand in one hand and an elegant curved blade in the other, symbols of a new union between sword and spell.
However, lacking a formal magical education, they could only self-teach the simplest of spells. Their knowledge was fragmentary, but their natural insight allowed them to refine even basic charms to extraordinary heights.
For example, the Lumos charm, originally just a spell for illumination, became something far greater in Elven hands.
Through their reverent will and affinity for light, they evolved it into a spell that emitted Holy Light, a radiance that purified corruption and banished darkness.
Even Sylas had been astonished upon witnessing it, immediately recording this upgraded spell into Hogwarts's curriculum as the Lumos Sancta, the "Holy Light Variant" of the Lumos charm.
After receiving Galadriel's and Elrond's approval, Sylas began preparing the creation of the Pen of Acceptance and the Book of Admission.
This time, however, the magical range would need to extend far beyond his own dominion, not only encompassing Hogsmeade, Bree, and Isengard, but also reaching across the Misty Mountains to include Rivendell and Lothlórien.
In the other world, the original Hogwarts's quill and book had only needed to cover the British Isles, a modest land compared to the vastness of Middle-earth.
But Sylas's ambitions were far grander.
He intended to create a Pen and Book that could detect magical potential across the entire continent of Middle-earth.
Such an artifact would be a miracle even among divine relics, the difficulty immense, and the magical energy required staggering.
To empower it, Sylas made a painful decision: he plucked a single phoenix tail feather from his own wings to serve as the heart of the Pen of Acceptance.
For the Book of Admission, he selected the hide of a Frost Dragon, taken from its heart-scales, the hardest and most enduring material known in the world.
Half a year passed before the work was complete.
Upon Sylas's workbench lay a magnificent quill, its golden-red plume shimmering with living fire, and beside it, a massive tome bound in black dragonhide, its cover veined with faint blue frostlight.
When the day of activation came, Sylas, Galadriel, Elrond, and Gandalf gathered together within the great hall of Hogwarts Castle.
Sylas raised his wand and began to channel pure magic into the two artifacts, reciting a long incantation that resonated through the chamber like rolling thunder.
The phoenix quill and the dragonhide tome lifted into the air, glowing fiercely as they drank in his power.
Sensing his exhaustion, the three Elven lords stepped forward.
Their Three Rings of Power, Nenya, Vilya, and Narya, blazed to life, pouring torrents of radiant energy into the artifacts.
The Pen and Book pulsed with life, absorbing the combined might of wizard and Elf alike, their aura expanding beyond the chamber like a living heartbeat.
A silent wave of force rippled outward, invisible, intangible, yet vast.
It spread through the castle, over the valley, across Hogsmeade, and beyond to Bree, until it blanketed the whole of Eriador.
Still, the wave did not stop.
It continued expanding, crossing mountains, rivers, and forests, stretching ever outward.
Finally, the spreading force reached the Misty Mountains to the east, enveloping the lands of Rivendell. To the south, it expanded over Enedwaith, the wide region below Eriador.
Yet still, the invisible power did not stop. It ignored every obstacle, passing through the towering cliffs of the Misty Mountains as if they were air. The wave of magic continued to spread eastward, covering Lothlórien, Mirkwood, Erebor and the Lonely Mountain, the Iron Hills, and even the distant Dorwinion region by the shores of the Sea of Rhûn.
To the south, it rolled over Isengard, Rohan, and Gondor, before touching the edges of Mordor, Harad, and Khand.
In Barad-dûr, the Dark Lord Sauron suddenly stirred. His great Eye flared open, gazing westward, as if seeking the source of this mysterious surge that brushed against his realm.
At last, after blanketing nearly the entire continent of Middle-earth, the invisible power slowly came to rest.
Inside Hogwarts Castle, Sylas lowered his wand, panting heavily, his face pale with exhaustion.
Beside him, Galadriel, Elrond, and Gandalf also ceased channeling the magic of the Three Elven Rings, their luminous glow gradually fading.
To have extended the range of the Pen of Acceptance and the Book of Admission to encompass all of Middle-earth was an unimaginable feat. Sylas's own magic alone could never have achieved it. Only with the aid of these three mighty beings, and the divine power of their Rings, had it become possible.
Now, their effort was rewarded. Hogwarts had gained yet another artifact of extraordinary power.
The Pen and Book floated gently in the air, pulsing with brilliant light. Their auras intertwined and resonated, releasing steady waves of living magic that filled the chamber.
Then, as if sensing a summons, the Book of Admission opened itself with a rustle, its pages glowing faintly.
The Pen of Acceptance twirled gracefully through the air and landed upon the open page. Without a drop of ink, it began to write swiftly across the parchment in shimmering emerald-green letters.
One by one, names, birth dates, and places of origin appeared, neat and precise, filling the page with elegant script.
Sylas stepped forward, eyes wide with awe. The Book recorded young wizards from Hogsmeade, Bree, and Isengard, as well as Elven children from Rivendell, Lothlórien, Mirkwood, Lindon, and even distant Dorwinion far to the east.
Among the names, Sylas noticed one that made him pause: Grim Beorn, the youngest son of Beorn the skin-changer, from Beorn's House in the Anduin Valley.
Apparently, this child had inherited his father's extraordinary gift. He possessed the rare magical nature of a shapeshifter, a talent deeply tied to the wild magic of the earth.
According to the Book, Grim Beorn had been born in 2950, making him ten years old, precisely the right age to be among the first generation of students at the newly founded Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
The Pen of Acceptance continued to glide over the pages, tirelessly inscribing name after name. It recorded every person across Middle-earth who carried even a spark of magical potential.
There were children from newborns to adolescents, and even adults.
To Sylas's astonishment, the Book listed the names of Galadriel, Elrond, and Gandalf as well, all shining brightly upon the page.
Yet, one name stood apart.
Near the bottom of a newly filled page, faint and dim, appeared the name Sauron.
Unlike the others, his name gave off no glow.
