  Summary

  Harry's been back with the Dursleys for a few days but life is already worse than ever before. On a fateful day, a week or so before his birthday, Uncle Vernon has had enough of his nightmares - and the screaming that comes with them. Beatings are nothing new. Snape appearing to rescue him afterwards is.
  What follows is something that Harry never dared imagine. Stories of families, various branches of magic, new allies and new enemies. After all, "you can start a family or you can start a war".
