The Great Hall was filled with students, a quiet and solemn hum filling the room as they spoke amongst themselves of recent happenings and what they expected to become of the school. Nicolas had been feeling a little bit better as of late, and felt he would be well enough to finish the day without let or hindrance from whatever had been plaguing him over the past week. Cecily had found herself unable to attend the service -- for what reason Nicolas could not recollect but he recalled finding it an acceptable reason when she had told him. He wasn't entirely sure how this service would pan out or what to expect exactly in the way of student reactions. He had managed to avoid most of the student body by staying in bed after his appearance at the play but now he'd have to face them in their entirety.
Standing up from his seat at the staff table on the raised platform of the Great Hall Nicolas approached the podium which had a few odd pieces of parchment sprawled out on it. He placed his hands on the podium and waited a moment while the hall fell into a hush. He glanced down at the piece of parchment, ensuring himself that he knew what he was about to say then spoke at last. "We are here today to remember and celebrate the life of an amazing student of this school, and one that we should have never lost. Njord Aesir, a Hufflepuff Prefect, passed from us in a tragic accident a few days ago. Nobody saw this coming, nor should any of us have seen this coming. He was a student of great life and great character, the type of person that no matter when it is that they're taken it feels as though it was too soon. It is for those reasons that today we gather, as his friends, peers, family, professors, and fellow wizardkind to remember the life of this young man.
"For those of you who knew Njord, I would invite you to come up to the podium now and share your memories of Njord or share a few words about him." Nicolas then rolled up one of the pieces of parchment and returned to his seat behind the podium, allowing others to come up and say their piece.
