Introduction

Hello everyone, welcome to Part 2 of our Walkthrough for Search for the Mirror of Erised Adventure of Harry Potter Hogwarts Mystery.

During the previous part, you and your friends learned that a powerful magical artifact went missing and that the professors are looking for it. After figuring out that the missing artifact is the Mirror of Erised, all of you decided to search for it.

Thanks to Penny’s help, you were able to deduce that the mirror was hidden in the Room of Requirement before it went missing. Barnaby and Talbott helped you search the corridor on the seventh floor, where you found some clues that led you to the Herbology classroom.

Penny and you went there and interestingly enough, you found the mirror. Shortly after you arrived, Professor Sprout showed up and said that she was the one who moved the artifact. After informing her that the Headmaster is looking for the mirror, she suggested visiting his office as soon as possible, so proceed there when you are ready.

You’ll learn that Professor Sprout did all in her power to save one of the first Puffapods she ever planted. Apparently, that plant was very important to her.

Unfortunately, there was not much she could do to save the plant, so she decided to look into the Mirror of Erised. The mirror showed her a greenhouse full of Puffapods.
