For me the new Harry Potter series can be about founders or villains without any issues
Uma série sobre os fundadores de Hogwarts pode abordar: a construção da escola, as brigas entre Salazar e Godric, a origem do chapéu seletor, a criação da Câmara Secreta, os primeiros alunos, professores, tudo num tom medieval maravilhoso.
