In large hall, lit entirely by candle light, a young withdrawn man stands to the side of the room hoping not to be noticed by anyone. Unfortunately for him a young child has spotted him.
Becoming uncomfortably self-conscious under the child’s gaze, he breaks and talks to her.
Exasperated that he is now stuck with this child, and not wishing to encourage any further interaction he purposefully ignores her question.
Slightly taken aback by the child’s sombre tone he found himself sympathising and asking...
Surprised by the child’s maturity he decides that a conversation with her is mildly better than the alternative mind numbing boredom
Salazar decides to humour Rowena and keep listening as this conversation was infinitely better than engaging with anyone from the Wizard’s Council.
As Rowena confided in Salazar, she produced a twig with a silvery strand of hair wrapped around the length of it. Unicorn hair - ‘how fitting for her innocence’ Salazar found himself thinking.
Still in shock from hearing that the twig and hair works as a wand Salazar asks, some what bluntly,
Amused by her reasoning Salazar couldn’t keep a straight face. Determined to show him that she should be taken seriously Rowena continued.
Again the child surprised Salazar and before he knew it he found he was offering advice.
Salazar: May I?
Salazar holds out his hand asking for Rowena’s “wand”. Rowena didn’t want to hand it over but her desire to learn overrides her suspicion and she allows Salazar to take the twig and hair.
There’s a loud crash as a stack of plates clatter to the floor. Salazar quickly hands the wand back to Rowena.
Salazar: Here, you can have this back!
Rowena was already too busy practising to hear the compliment from Salazar.
From somewhere across the room a disembodied voice starts calling “Rowena!”
Salazar shudders at hearing Rowena say his name.
The first meeting!
(Is there an entire timeline to follow? Maaayybe! yes ...stay tuned!)
open to: anyone
connection: anything you can think of that would have reason to stumble upon him.
muse: Salazar Slytherin
The Chamber of Secrets wasn’t the only hidden passageway in Hogwarts, that was obvious to anyone, the school was filled with mysteries that even the professors were unaware of so little did they know Salazar Slytherin himself was currently sat hidden away deep in the bowls of the school reading a book next to a fireplace in a room he’d designed just for himself.
There he’d gone undisturbed for a very long time until now, the sound of the door opening making him lower his book, his head turning to investigate who had stumbled upon him and how they had managed to do so.
