Once, there were four extraordinary people that joined together to teach future generations all they knew.
For many years, they lived in peace, but with four of the age's most powerful witches and wizards under the same roof, disputes were bound to arise occasionally.
History glosses over the messiness, giving us lovely portraits of the four that so changed the wizarding world, but this does not hide the fact that they were real people with flaws of their own.
Godric Gryffindor was too stubborn to see past the tip of his sword.
If a book couldn't explain it, neither could Rowena Ravenclaw.
Nothing could quench Salazar Slytherin's thirst for more out of life, not even his friends.
Because she hated confrontations, Helga Hufflepuff was often willing to turn a blind eye to the actions of the other three.
Despite their imperfections, the bond of friendship held the founders together strongly enough to achieve their shared dream: Hogwarts.
A/N:
Hello! Welcome to "The Founders"! Expect slow updates: I have absolutely no idea when the first chapter will be published. This idea was rattling around in my head and I wanted to put it out there. Personally, I think it would make a really cool movie, but I'm not in charge of these things, unfortunately.
As always, I don't own too much. All rights go to J.K. Rowling & Warner Bros. I am going off of what little canon information there is about the founders of Hogwarts, so some of the storylines are mine. Please do not plagiarize.
Thank you! Enjoy!
Comment your house :) I'm a Hufflepuff
