While committing acts of vandalism planning my practical for charms, I looked up and noticed something.

Windows: in addition to being openings in walls, what use have they?

Windows allow for another escape route when the door is blocked.

[magenoir]

A way out rather than to keep something out... One could read into that answer further than the surface.

You can also get in through a window if something unfortunate happens - like the loss of the door's key. Also, considering the glass stainings in this castle, when the sun come through they make very shiny pretty works of art.

[magenoir]

In either case, it seems like one would be escaping something.

You can use a window to look into a room.

[magenoir]

You introduce another perspective, the other side of the insider/outsider situation, that I've not yet seen in this discussion.

[omghostaoba]

What? Seriously? You mean out of ALL the comments you have, NO ONE has said that yet?

[magenoir]

Everyone has either assumed the position of an insider in the physical sense, or as a tenuous outsider in the metaphysical sense.

Easy way to get in when the door is locked. Or sneak in when its after hours and you been out all night with your teacher in the back garden >>;

[magenoir]

I think some of the windows have been hexed against after-hour entries.

[madamanko]

Yeah... >> Now a days they are... Who do you think inspired them to start doing that? **proud**

[magenoir]

Kudos to you.
