"Godric's journal said that he locked away a force to banish all traces of Slytherin's disgrace. And if it was not for Slytherin, Ravenclaw would have caused even more trouble."
"Is this another altered truth? Dumbledore is like Rowena Ravenclaw. The two appear to be good people, but deep down they are wicked individuals" McGonagall responded.
"Yes. When Godric was bonded to Harrison, Rowena became enraged at the arrangement. Male bonding was a common practice among the pureblooded families, but it bothered her nonetheless. It was used especially if there were no daughters to marry away. Rowena took it all out on Salazar. When he left, all hell broke loose. Salazar was not Godric's greatest supporter, but he was a loyal friend. He risked his life to save a child he would have never let attend Hogwarts. He took the child in as his own.
A lot of the Slytherin myths are misdirected. Ravenclaw is like Dumbledore. He knows how to rub people the right way. She come off as a great person to everyone, but the other founders and Harrison."
"After Slytherin fell, Gryffindor followed. Hufflepuff some time later. And Ravenclaw ruled on her own until she used up every ounce of magic she had. Or at least that is the story I was told as a child" McGonagall added.
"That is true. But Helga died because Harrison died. Rowena placed a curse on Godric after Harrison gave birth. A month had not passed since the birth and Godric was dead. Harrison followed days later. Helga mere hours after the loss of her twin. Even I do not know about Salazar. But I do know that the Gryffindor name changed as a result of the Ravenclaw fiasco."
"To the Griffins I presume" McGonagall added.
"And then to the Potters and Woods. From the Potters arrived the Grangers. The Grays came from the Woods. From the Hufflepuff line came the Longbottom, Abbott, Bones, and the Azkaban lines. The Ravenclaws led to the Diggory, Dumbledore, Prince, Black, and Malfoy clans. The Slytherins fall in two branches. Salazar has two lines: the purebloods and the squibs. The pureblood side resulted in the Flint and Weasley families. The squib side resulted in the Evans line."
The families are important. There are two question marks under Griffin and Azkaban. More to follow. After this major update i may take the weekend off. i have 3 apps and a lot of hw to do. i have an AP Environmental test monday so who knows. Enter my challenge. Who knows, you may get to name a character. So Heres the geneology chart. It may give some hints for the next few chapters. I finished Escape to Paradise III in my study today for now...
