Prologue

Slytherin was in chaos and our people were dying. Our lands were sparse of food and water. The

economy was failing and our monarchy and the people within it were mostly corrupted. Treachery could

be found everywhere, and no one could be trusted. Only a week before the ambassador was found

dead in his own bed. The body was mutilated beyond recognition and it was only because of the

tremendous fat on the body ─ which could only have been achieved by the ambassador ─ that they

knew who the body belonged to. A great darkness spread in and around our country. The neighbouring

country decided to ally themselves with a great enemy of ours. We were in grave danger of being

attacked at any moment. Our people were frightened and there were many complaints about small

groups of people fighting in the towns.

Our country was in dire need of help. The King decided to ally us with the most feared and respected

country: Gryffindor. But, at that moment, we had yet to find a new ambassador to make peace with

Gryffindor, someone that was trustworthy and reliable. Someone the people could depend upon not to

abandon and betray them in times of urgency.

That was why I was chosen as an ambassador. Apparently, someone had told the king that a priest

would be suitable for the job. We were considered the most faithful servants of the country. Every time

someone became a priest, they were given a few difficult tasks to determine how worthy that person

was and if you passed all the tasks you would then give your oath to the High Priest in front of everyone

in the country. I passed the challenge when I was 16 years old and had sworn the oath to protect the

country from danger.

Five years later, the previous High Priest died and I was appointed as the next High Priest. I was the

youngest of the contestants; in fact, I was the youngest High Priest in history. Many were dissatisfied,

but the previous High Priest had decided in his will and no one could change that fact without

disrespecting his decision.

A few months after the ceremony that elevated me to the High Priest, the ambassador died and a new

one was to be chosen. The King decided that I was the most suitable of all the other contenders as I

had a very good reputation and was the most loyal amongst all of them.

A week after being appointed as the ambassador, I had packed and was ready to leave. I prayed to

The Mighty One to protect the country during my absence. I prayed that the king would be safe and

healthy and that he would not be devoured by greed and corruption. I prayed that the king would

continue to be brave and pure-hearted. The time came for my journey to Gryffindor, everything was

prepared and they were waiting for me. I rose from my kneeling position, walked towards the carriage,

and went in. A group of people were waiting outside for the High Priest to bless them. The carriage

started moving. I prayed to The Mighty One for safe journey.
