When the player chooses to report Sebastian Sallow after he kills his uncle, Solomon Sallow, in Hogwarts Legacy, Sebastian faces immediate and severe repercussions from the wizarding authorities. This decision leads to a definitive set of consequences for Sebastian.
The Aftermath of Sebastian's Actions
Upon being turned in by the player, Sebastian's life takes a dramatic turn, involving his expulsion from Hogwarts and a dire sentence from the Ministry of Magic.
Expulsion from Hogwarts
The first major consequence for Sebastian Sallow is his expulsion from Hogwarts. As a student involved in such a grave act as murder, his continued presence at the school is deemed untenable. This marks the end of his magical education and his time within the protective walls of Hogwarts Castle.
Handover to the Ministry of Magic
Following his expulsion, Sebastian is promptly handed over to the Ministry of Magic. The Ministry is the governing body of the wizarding world in Britain, responsible for upholding magical law and order. Given the severity of his crime, he is placed directly under their jurisdiction for judgment and punishment.
Imprisonment in Azkaban
For the serious offense of murder, the wizarding world has a singular and grim fate: imprisonment in Azkaban. Sebastian is ultimately sentenced to this infamous prison, known for its desolate and terrifying conditions. Azkaban is guarded by Dementors, dark creatures that feed on happiness and hope, leaving their victims with nothing but their worst memories and despair. This constitutes the ultimate consequence for Sebastian's actions, should the player choose to report him.
In summary, if the player makes the choice to turn Sebastian Sallow in after he kills his uncle, his journey culminates not in a quest for ancient magic, but in the bleak confines of Azkaban.
