You may not remember so far back, Linus, but my lecture to the first years, the thing I try to say every year.
That the night sky is beautiful. That I hope everyone, whatever else they learn and forget, or never learn at all, can look up and appreciate it, and understand that the wolrd is vast and complicated, and yet there are patterns and movements we can learn to understand if we're patient and pay enough attention.
And sometimes, I just like that the stars are very far away, and - meteors excepted, and a few other things - don't change very quickly at all.
But yes. I also have more arithmancy for you. As much arithmancy as you want.
