Tobias found himself presented with three options. He contemplated between the three of them before grabbing the pocket watch. Tucking it into his pockets, he headed out of the Osservatorio.

There was a reason Astronomy had never been his strongest subject back home. After all, how was he supposed to focus on one little constellation when, well, the entire sky was just so mesmerizing?
(Thankfully, he supposed, he'd gotten one of the largest constellations known to wizardkind as his chosen to find and emulate. A pain to draw, perhaps, but hopefully relatively easily to find.)
Shaking his head out of the metaphorical clouds, he set out in a random direction, alternating between facing forward as to not crash into something and gazing into the sky.

More champions left the Osservatorio while the others still needing to find their constellation continued to look through the telescopes that had been set up in a row. Mathieu observed them, wondering if they would be able to catch up.

After walking and following the direction he had chosen, he ended up in a field where there was nothing. That made him frown and look scowling around, wondering if he should continue or change direction. Maybe... Yes, better this way. It was what he thought and walked in the direction he intended to go. With a little luck, he might end up with a clear advantage.

Her drawing glowed as Desiree approached her designated chest, opening it to find three seemingly random items. She could not fully understand the purpose of such items. She could see a possible use for the pocket watch and mirror, but the necklace? Yet that was the reason she found herself drawn to the item. It seemed out of place, and yet there must be a reason why it was in there. Perhaps it would be a powerful tool, hidden in a seemingly innocuous item, and give her an advantage over her competitors.
She pulled the necklace out of the chest and examined it for a moment, waiting to see if something would happen, but nothing did. Hm, odd. Well she’d made her choice, might as well run with it. She fastened the necklace around her neck and headed towards the stairs, making her way out of the Osservatorio and onto the school grounds.

Walking alone in the dark, Silvia was beginning to feel uneasy. Not afraid - they had been assured there was no possibility of death. Still, there would be dangers. Her right hand clutched the wand, ready to cast at a moment's notice. Her left one slid into her pocket, finding the watch there. Should she take it out, see what it could do? Perhaps not yet. For now, she continued walking.
((MANUEL ALVES PERERIA - I think you got a little mixed up with some characters being two steps ahead. He's in the Osservatorio with the telescope (stationary) and needs to find the constellation first. So just keep guessing directions until you get it. Then once I say that he found it, you can have him draw it on the parchment and go to his chest. I'll keep guiding you though every time you reach a step. <3))
HENRI FONTAINE tried to go north-east, but there was nowhere to go. He was at the edge of Firenze.
((HENRI FONTAINE you can help Ares fight the fire crab if you want, or journey somewhere else. If you do and you guys lose, then you only take 1 damage instead of 2.))
DESIREE FONTAINE started to walk south-west and she didn't get very far when her necklace started glowing. A few moments later, she realized she had stepped in a large patch of Devil's Snare, which quickly started to attack her at being disturbed.
((You need to fight it off to continue. If you keep walking the way she was going after the fight, she will reach her destination.))
SILVIA ODETTE STIRLING kept walking west and arrived at the Pond. She found a golden feather, one of the objects of the Task. Four more to go.

Ares started going and ended up in a field. He didn't have his wand lit yet but he could see a fire crab suddenly near him faintly. He did the first thing he thought to do, shoot water at it. "Aguamenti!" he shouted as a stream of water shot towards the turtle. He hoped it was a good defense against it. He didn't want to get set on fire. Of course, that might make it easier to see in the dark.

Her eyes were beginning to grow accustomed to the scarce lighting by now. She could see the ground close to her fairly well, which reduced the risk of tripping up; the shapes of plants were emerging out of the darkness as well. Soon, she spotted a pond. There was something close to the water, too. The blonde stopped and examined the object, not yet touching it. A feather. Would it set off some trap? There really was only one way to find out. She snatched it, ready to cast some defensive spell if needed, but nothing happened. Huh. Well, this was going great so far. The feather was golden, certainly not a random piece of plumage dropped by a pssing bird, but an item placed there purposefully.
She tucked it deep into her pocket so as not to lose it and considered her options. Walking further in the same direction wasn't possible, the pond blocked it. That left either trying to move around it, going back, or heading in some new direction. After some thought, she began moving south.

Outside of the Osservatorio, everything was pitch black, except for the moon and the stars in the sky. Desiree took out her wand and cast, “Lumos,” to light her way. She’d only been walking for a few minutes when she noticed a new light joining that of her wand, this one coming from the necklace. She picked it up and peered down at it as she walked, trying to see if the light changed as she moved around. Was it a good thing or a bad thing for it to light up?
In her distraction from the necklace, she did not notice that she had walked straight into devil’s snare until she felt a tendril wrap around her ankle. She quickly dropped her hold of the necklace, letting it fall back down against her chest, and turned her wand towards the source, cursing under her breath at the vine. The singular vine shrieked away from her wand’s light, but as she looked up she noticed it was not the only one. It was a large patch of devil’s snare, many feet in length and in width, all squirming towards her. Her small wand spell would not do to fight against so many of them.
She quickly shot a few jets of fire towards some of the oncoming tendrils, “Incendio. Incendio!” A few of the vines caught fire, causing those nearby to retreat, but it still wasn’t enough. She would need something much larger to defeat this patch. Recalling a spell they had only recently learned in Charms class, Desiree realized it might be her saving grace. She pointed her wand towards the largest patch of devil’s snare and shouted, “Lumos Solem!” As soon as the bright light burst out of her wand, she pinched her eyes shut, unable to look straight at it, much as one would the sun. Hopefully if she couldn’t stand the light, it would be enough to send the devil’s snare running back to the darkness.

Astronomy wasn't exactly Calvin's best attribute when it came to magical strength. He was more of a physical being rather than a theoretical one. Though he fails to understand why, people have said he's exceptional with his wand work but no one has ever complimented him on his Astronomy work. Ever.
Gathering the instructors and having to whisper them to himself was one of the many ways he took in knowledge. " Okay, so I have to do this... " He obtained his telescope and positioned himself as he pointed in the direction of the stars. He shrugged his shoulders as he closed one eye before peaking into said telescope.

After reorienting, he ended up at the edge of Firenze. He was frustrated, if it had been Beauxbatons, surely he would have already won, since he knew the terrain quite well. Unaware, he was close to another champion but did not notice until he heard some noises. Intrigued, he walked to Ares, who was fighting with a firecrab. They were unaware of his presence, he turned off the light from the wand and had to wield it at the time he tried to perform a full body-bind curse spell to paralyze creature "Petrificus Totalus!" he shouted.

ARES CRIVELLI' spell missed but thankfully HENRI FONTAINE's spell hit the crab and caught it to stop moving. They were safe for now and could go on their way.
SILVIA ODETTE STIRLING went south and reached the trail. She found a small golden disc. Two down, three to go.
DESIREE FONTAINE was unfortunately not successful and the vines ended up squeezing her enough to cause some damage. But then they retreated. She was injured, though.
((She has 8 HP now. You can keep walking in the same direction as before to reach your destination.))
TOBIAS ALVAREZ started walking west and found it to be quite dark outside.
((Keep walking in the same direction and you will reach your destination.))

"Thanks," Ares said, a little stilted. He didn't like relying on someone else in the task. Not when he wanted to thwart the others. He thought about doing something to the French boy but he decided not to... this time. He did save him from getting attacked by a fire crab, at least.
Ares decided to go on his way. If the French boy followed him, that was up to him, but Ares would rather go alone.
