The Hogwarts Houses

Houses as landscapes

Gryffindor: Tall, rocky mountains with snow on top. They are sharp around the edges, so sharp that they cut into your soul. Once you see them, you will remember them for the rest of your life. They're both beautiful and scary; bright mornings full of silence, thundering avalanches. One thing's for sure; it's hard to get on top of the mountain, but it's always fun once you get there.

Ravenclaw: Green forests just above the sea describe both their silence and their noise. You may get lost among the trees, but follow the sound of crashing waves, it will get you out in no time ... Just be careful not to hurt them. No matter how beautiful and kind they seem, forests have no exit for some people, and the seas often end up being watery graves for the other.

Hufflepuff: Hills man. Gentle curves, soft grass, perfect for rolling around. Out of all the landscapes above, hills seem the friendliest, don't they? That's because we try to be. But be careful, even you can stumble upon a rock while carelessly rolling down the slope ... Return our kindness. Don't litter. Be mindful of picking our flowers. Binch.

Slytherin: Bright green swamps, buzzing with life. Be careful, though! One wrong step and your gone. Not everyone knows how to appreciate their beauty; it's so strange and seemingly cold, but once you take some time to actually get to know the swamp, you'll see how they keep life within themselves thriving ... You may get a bit overprotective over your swamp, though. If you intend on adopting a swamp as your friend, get used to quoting Shrek with "Get out of my swamp!" Whenever someone doesn't appreciate it enough.
