Phoenix-Lament

The Phoenix Lament was a form of song expressed by Phoenixes. Its tunes are known to touch the soul, in positive or negative ways. Its most powerful performances are known to be present when the Phoenix suffers emotional instability or distress, such as the death of its master. This song was reputed to increase the courage of the pure of heart, and to strike fear into the hearts of the impure.
==History==
When Albus Dumbledore died, his pet phoenix, Fawkes, sang a Phoenix Lament. It mesmerised all those gathered in the hospital wing: Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, Molly Weasley, Arthur Weasley, Ginny Weasley, Neville Longbottom, Luna Lovegood, Minerva McGonagall, Madam Pomfrey, Remus Lupin, Nymphadora Tonks, Bill Weasley and Fleur Delacour. The Lament was broken when Minerva burst into the Hospital Wing, bringing all who were listening to it back to sense, and subsequently discussing the events that had transpired. After Fawkes fell silent, he left Hogwarts, only returning for his master's funeral and then departing, presumably forever.
