Oh wow, this was so creepy and atmospheric. I'm intrigued by what Tom found (or didn't find) and what it meant for him. This is such a cool take on Hogwarts' magic and its origins.

Thank you! The founders really interest me, and I love to think that there's a lot more to Hogwarts and magic than we see in the books, and that's where this came from.

Ooo, this is suggestive of so much more. Marvelous. Great imagery. Well done.

Oh so creepy and foreboding! Great detail and description. This was really unique and unsettling. Very nicely done!

Thank you so much. I'm glad you liked it! That the Founders were buried within Hogwarts grounds it a favourite headcanon of mine, and I loved being able to explore it a little, along with a bit of magic.

Thank you! I'm really glad you liked it. It was really fun working with such a small wordcount and trying to build up as much atmosphere as possible within it. Tricky, but fun.
