Thanks guys.
Unfortunately, I have terrible news to report.
I just received a letter via owl informing me that
Slytherin will be no more at the conclusion of this school year. While I would not estimate the probability of my joining Salazar's house as overly great, it is always a tragedy and a very sad event when we lose a House.
This has made me all the more determined to inject energy and commitment to the cause of all the Houses when I join, no matter which one is the mutual selection in the end.
All of the Houses, even before this occurrence, have been reported to me as being tight-knit, a unified Hogwarts determined to survive and thrive.
The demise of Slytherin makes the combined forces and united front all the more important.
The Voldemortian dream of a dead Greek community must not happen.
