The answer to my 8th riddle is "The Malfoys"
Our's is what we considered to be a noble history,
Self explanatory .. the pure blood Malfoys were proud about their heritage and ancestry & looked down upon everyone else.
But changing times left our position in a mystery.
In the end, their position was indeed a "mystery" since they had openly come out as dark lord's supporters after years of leading a dual life and right after they came out, voldy was finished!..😆.. in the new regime, they were unsure of how everybody was now going to treat them and not the other way around !
Once held high, there was no match for us here,
Self explanatory.
But now we are left to be neither here nor there.
This reminded me of the scene wherein after the final battle at Hogwarts, everybody was cheering and celebrating and the Malfoys just stood there looking like uninvited shunned party guests who made the unfortunate mistake of gatecrashing !..🤣
What we did was what we felt to be nobility,
Yes, according to pure blood freaks like Malfoys , Voldy's motive were noble for the wizarding community..
But ultimately we gave in, that continues to be our reality.
Yup, ultimately in the end the Malfoys were least bothered if voldy wins or not unlike the raging crazy Bellatrix whose devotion to her dark lord was rock solid.
