Lucius called Hagrid inside. The room was trembling under the man’s footsteps, when he entered the room. He took a seat, when he was indicated to take one. Lucius said: "Hagrid, you are here today, because we have to announce that your expulsion has been lifted and that you are able to finish your OWLs and NEWTs. We are also going to pay reparation for the injustice that has been done to you and the board is giving you the sincerest apology for the former headmaster Dippet’s actions against you."
