bercygirl2: 
I had a thought about the Quintaped....JKR has said that the four 
houses (Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw) correspond to 
the four elements (fire, water, earth and air). However, there are 
actually 5 elements: fire, water, earth, air and metal. Could there 
have once been a fifth house? Or possible there will be a fifth house 
in the future?
