When Darkness meets Zen: Voldemort and his Bonsai
Imagine for a moment if the Dark Lord had traded his wand for pruning shears and cultivated the art of bonsai. Perhaps the Harry Potter story would have had a few less... let's say... deadly twists and turns?
One less Horcrux, one more Bonsai
Instead of spreading terror in the wizarding world, Voldemort could have found an unexpected passion for miniature botany. Think about it: Voldemort in a gardening apron, meticulously bending over a small tree, pruning not the liberties but the superfluous branches.
Patience of a Black Mage
Bonsai requires patience and constant care, two qualities that are not really in the black magician's arsenal. But imagine if Voldemort had learned to breathe deeply (which is a feat without a nose) and focus on slowly growing a tree rather than quickly gaining power.
A Cup for Peace
Each cut of the scissors would have been a step towards healing his fractured soul. Rather than fearing Voldemort's name, people would have murmured reverently about how "He-Who-Must-Be-Hewn" transformed Malfoy Manor into a prize greenhouse.
A Green Slytherin
One could imagine Voldemort at Hogwarts Bonsai Club meetings, discussing soil fertility with Professor Sprout, sharing cuttings with his sworn enemies, and perhaps even winning the House Cup for Slytherin thanks to his unexpected talents. of a gardener.
Alternative Conclusions
The moral of this story ? Perhaps if Voldemort had taken the time to appreciate the little things – like the beauty of a bonsai tree – the wizarding world would have been a much more peaceful place. Who knows, maybe with enough practice he would eventually grow a nose...
