Hello! The Wheatcrafts are a long line of prestigious, wealthy witches and wizards. As long as we have been established, we have been pure-blood. The only befouling of OUR blood is the slightesttttt bit of Scottish heritage mixed in with the pure English. Anyyyyyway, enough about my heritage. What is this, 200 words about me? What a narcissist I must be.
To the point. I am Zoe Reij Wheatcraft, and I have had many advantages in this world. Not only superficially, as I am a blond white person, but in my heritage. My family is very wealthy, we are pure blood strong, we live in Southend (which is a lovely area), and I live a life I love. Yet I feel there is a certain stigma attached to being a rich pureblood, perhaps worse than that of someone poor. Please note I am not saying that I am worse off than someone who is poorer, I am simply saying that what someone thinks when they hear "rich pureblood" is worse of that when they hear "poor." My family lives in a 15 bedroom home, though we are comprised of five people, and other relatives who visit us on occasion. Because I have said this, many will now greatly dislike me for it. Not because I have been elite or snobbish, nor rude. Very simply from the act of possession. This. Is. Ridiculous. Purely because I have money there are things already assumed of me. I am snobby. I think myself above my peers. I am mean and rude and undeserving. Well, I'm not. And the mere fact that society would assume that of me simply boils up my anger.
So I would like to tell YOU. My family may be rich, but that doesn't mean we're bad people. We worked our ways up. We were surfs on a wheat farm (hence the name), and through hard work and magical talent we were able to revolutionize our farm, and eventually came to possess it. Through the ages we have continued this hard work, and by 1952 we had a complete monopoly on the wheat trade. So yes, we have money. And yes, we have houses. Maybe if your ancestors had worked a little harder, you could live in our neighborhood too.
