Merula
Shreya Govalkar was sorted into Slytherin on her first day at Hogwarts. Calm and intelligent, she quickly caught the attention of Merula Snyde, a proud and sharp-tongued girl from the same house. That evening, Shreya received a letter signed by Professor Snape asking her to collect Pickled Slugs from the Potions Storeroom. Wanting to impress the Head of Slytherin, she went immediately — only for the door to slam shut behind her. A smug laugh echoed outside. “Honestly, Shreya, I expected someone from Slytherin to be smarter than this.” Merula had forged the letter just to trick her. Thankfully, Hagrid arrived in time and helped Shreya out. A few days later, Shreya saw Merula publicly humiliating Ben Copper in the courtyard. “Disgusting Mudbloods like you shouldn’t even be allowed in Hogwarts.” Unable to stay silent, Shreya stepped in front of Ben and faced Merula directly. “That’s enough, Merula.”*
