Things of Value

Title: Things of Value
Author: HumanTales
Ratings: PG
Character(s): Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw, Salazar Slytherin
Summary: The Founders decide that they need a way to pass their values on when they are gone.
Beta and Brit-picker: [profile] rakina
Author's Note:
Written for Prompt XVII of Sycophant Hex's "The Sky is Falling" festival.

XVII. History of Magic
This is your chance to develop a bit of history; put Professor Binns to shame with your historical knowledge. Take an event or a character from the Wizarding past and expound. These events/people must be canon (from the books themselves, the Harry Potter Lexicon, or JK Rowling's site)! You must go at least 200 years into the past, though how far after that initial 200 years is entirely up to you. Original characters are allowed, but they cannot be the main character of your story.
