Chapter 7: Rise of the Ancients

  • 25 May, 2025

Silence prevails after his announcement, only to be broken by Lord Malfoy volunteering to speak. "I would like to speak if everyone agrees." Everybody nods their approval signalling Lord Malfoy to continue. "For far too long, the power of the Ancients, also known as the Sacred 12, has been left dormant. This has resulted in a decline in educational standards and a lack of awareness among new generations. Our ministry has become corrupt, and our customs and traditions are being disregarded. The quality of our magic has deteriorated due to the adulteration of magic and the influence of Muggle ideologies. Let me be clear - I am not opposed to Muggle-borns. However, I take issue with the ideologies that they promote under the guise of modernisation and their criticism of our heritage without attempting to understand its significance and trying to gain its essence. I believe we must reinstate the council and take control of the witenagemot and eventually the wizarding world before it's too late to save our country and her magic. With this, I rest my point."
