Summary:
Some stories begin with letters that never arrive. With names erased from history. With a boy marked by prophecy and a girl whose magic thrums with ancient power.
This one begins with a squib who never stopped watching, a mother who never stopped scheming, and a bond that dares to rewrite the future.
A retelling of canon—rewoven from bloodlines, buried magic, and the quiet defiance of two women who refuse to let the future be written without them.
POVs: Helen Granger, Narcissa Malfoy, (and when they’re old enough) Hermione and Draco.
Our story begins in the Spring of 1981…
