Chapter 29
The Red Keep had never been so chaotic in years. The maids and the servants were conflicted on whether to mourn the loss of the King, or question the Crown’s actions against the young Healer who had once helped them all.
Many did loathe Galen, for the closure of the gates and the ports which had been ordered to be opened again by their new ...

SIRIUS BLACK
A day had passed since Sirius had returned from the Black Family gathering, and yet despite that, he still had no idea what exactly he had witnessed in those Halls. He had truly dreaded going to the Black manor, expecting himself to be the centre of attention, but it was nothing like that.
His name had barely even come ...

“Each team will be given one scroll,” the proctor explained as the teams were gathered at different entry points around the Forest of Death, as they waited for the second Exam to begin.

War was here, and so was their King. Despite the weather and roads, Cregan had ridden day and night to make it in time for the final battle, and now he was here at the wall leading the gathering of men and women into battle.
Yet he had not come alone. The Targaryen Princess had ridden with him, intrigued by the whispers of...

The Longbottom manor was as large as a castle, and for good reason. The place had been a castle before, and yet the Longbottoms were as compact as a family could be. Currently the castle was occupied by but a few old servants, that cared for the estate, Augusta Longbottom and Frank Longbottom.
Frank had lost both his par...

“You two will go to Konoha,” the command came from the shadowy figure who led the secret organization known as Akatsuki, and any other shinobi would have run away in fear by now, yet the two of them did not.
For they were not regular shinobi.
No, they were S-ranked monsters, who could level a village on their own.

One would think that Galen was responsible for his current condition. That he had failed in seeing through the machinations of the court and its grey rats once more. Yet they would be wrong.
The plague had stretched him too thin, but he was not truly blind to the noose that was being tightened around his neck. The propaganda. ...

Alder had forced Lily to come back to their home for three, and now he was the one regretting that decision. He had done nothing to earn his sister’s scorn, yet Petunia cared little for reason as she chose to blame them all for her troubles.
A part of him sympathised with her, and yet she refused to see any semblance o...

The Evans were no royalty, but the family was comfortable enough. Their father worked in the banks, and Mrs. Evans was simply a homemaker, though she did have a bachelors and a half finished masters in Botany, which she had refused to take up despite his constant urging.

Kurenai found her team to be far more forgiving and stronger than she had thought. Despite the death of Sakura, they did not blame her and accepted her back without a word.

Garlan was tired as he knocked on the doors of another house. He had barely slept in the last few days, as he toiled to help his saviour and friend.

Days turned into weeks, and the passing of the genin girl turned from news to memory. A profound and ever-present memory. But the world began to move on, and once more the genin began to head out on missions, with greater caution and understanding of the dangers of the shinobi life.

NARCISSA BLACK
It was rare for Narcissa to be surprised, yet her first trip into the Muggle World had truly left her with nothing but surprise. Ever since she had been young, Narcissa had been taught that the Muggles were nothing but savages, and their existence was meaningless in comparison to witches and wizards who ran the world.
