Mission 3: ” Find the Map, Save Ginny!”


🔮 Mission narrative

Before entering the Chamber of Secrets, Harry and Ron find out that Ginny, Ron’s sister, has been kidnapped by Lord Voldemort, who wants to take her life force. To find her, they need the Marauder’s Map, a magical map that shows all the places in Hogwarts and its secret passages.

Antes de entrar na Cámara dos Segredos, Harry e Ron descobren que Ginny, a irmá de Ron, foi secuestrada por Lord Voldemort, que quere roubarlle a súa forza vital. Para atopala, necesitan o Mapa do Merodeador, un documento máxico que mostra todos os lugares de Hogwarts e os seus pasadizos secretos.
