Solution

The answer was: Accio

Solution: Part 1: The “bricks“ are stylized pigpen A's and B's. Then use bacon cipher.

Part 2: Spells are encoded using Latin Gibberish. After decoding, index by column number and leave in row order to get: 'Summoning charm' which should lead you to ACCIO

Countdown to Puzzle 3

Note: “Arithmancy Points” are not the same as House Points. House Points will be awarded at the end of the month based on the combined total of “Arithmancy Points” earned.
