Sorting CeremonyWhen a student starts their education at Ilvermorny, they step onto a Gordian Knot on the floor in the centre of the entrance hall with large wooden statues of the mascots for the four houses facing them. The carved statues react if they want the student in their house. The carving react by: The Horned Serpent's crystal in it's head will glow. The Wampus carving will roar. The Thunderbird will flap it's wings. The Pukwudgie will raise it's arrows.
However, sometimes more than one carving will try to select the same student and so the student is then able to choose the house they prefer. This happens very rarely. Sometimes - as rare as once a decade or even a generation as in the case of one student - a student will be selected by every house.
