An unknown '''spell''' that released a burst of blue light was used by [[Bellatrix Lestrange]] to shatter the windows in the [[Great Hall]] in her insane celebratory outburst after the [[Battle of the Astronomy Tower|death]] of [[Albus Dumbledore]] in [[1997]]. Some could assume this spell was merely a more powerful version of the [[Reductor Curse]], but that theory can easily be changed since it destroyed not only the windows, but made a immense gust of wind to extinguish the candles floating over the Great Hall.
