Godric Gryffindor
Rowena is first of them to break down. She cracks under the pressure like a mere twig, the youngest and strongest and weakest of the group, the most intelligent and beautiful woman Godric has ever met and will meet. Helga sits down next to her, the flow of soothing words coming from her lips. Salazar stands there, looking bemused and clueless, and Helga sighs when neither of the two men tries to help her.
Godric looks around, marvelling the beautiful countryside, dreaming of the school that soon will rise there. He can see all the students before him, learning new things everyday, magic surrounding them. He can see himself and his three companions, teaching and smiling and just being friends.
There will be a lot of trouble – there are already lots of troubles, he corrects himself while looking at Rowena, who stands up and covers her eyes with her hand while apologizing, her voice faint and shaky. But there isn't a trouble they couldn't overcome as long as they are together.
The world is doubting their abilities, but they are going to show all of them, they will build a magic school, mightiest in the whole world, a school that will never be closed.
Sure, it will take plenty of time and hard work, and they all will follow Rowena's example and break down at some point, but together... Yes, together they will succeed.
