    Summary

    The long and drawn out battle against Voldemort and the Death Eaters left Harry Potter feeling empty, and the aftermath of it did little to change that. Seeing the hypocrisy of the survivors of the Order of the Phoenix, and how little the thoughts and words of the former Boy-Who-Lived mattered to either the general population or to his former allies, the young man distanced himself from Wizarding Britain, eventually disappearing all together. After several years, the situation in Magical Britain only continued to deteriorate, while all attempts to locate the Last Potter proved fruitless for both friend and enemy alike. Across the channel, a young woman completing her education in Beauxbatons continues her efforts to find the man that had once saved her life. Undaunted by the naysayers, Gabrielle Delacour tries to balance out finding her future career and the missing man, though she isn't the only person searching for the Hero of the Second Blood War. All the while a shadow moves about the French Countryside, trying to live out a life in peace and anonymity that was denied to them throughout much of their life, though it might be denied to them once more, if certain people have their way, for good or ill.

    Summary

    On September 1st, 1941, Hogwarts welcomed refugees of Grindelwald's War into its halls. In his 4th year, Tom Riddle has been strengthening his position as one of the brightest of Hogwarts students of his time and has been researching his past, trying to uncover his ties to Salazar Slytherin to find where he might belong. Yet that all changes as the eyes of the school are drawn to Lilith von Schwarzwald, last survivor of the infamous Austrian family that was wiped out by Grindelwald for opposing him and his war, as Continental Europe and its colonies are spiraling into the Second World War. Sorted to Slytherin, the redheaded witch demonstrates a refusal to yield to anyone, with a quiet violence, unusual kindness and intelligence that intrigued Tom in many ways. As Tom deals with the trauma of his past and the volatile conditions of being a student of Slytherin House, he finds himself ever drawn to Lilith von Schwarzwald's side, even as she too must contend with forces threatening to tear her and the world apart.

    Summary

    On Samhain night of 1981, the Potter Cottage was attacked by the Dark Lord Voldemort. Charlus and Dorea Potter died protecting their grandchildren, who seemed to have miraculously survived, leaving a young Henry James Potter with a lightning shaped scar on his forehead. Unnoticed by the adults, little Halley Lily Potter was also marked, hers right above her heart in the form of the rune ᛦ (Norse/Younger Futhark for "Yew"). Dumbledore saw the seemingly dark magic on the girl and proceeded to cut her off from Magical Britain, convincing the Potters that she had no magic and would be happier with the Dursleys. The Potters and all of Britain rejoiced at the apparent death of Voldemort, while a little girl's life would soon be turned into a living hell for 7 long years, until one night, when her world changes for the better.
