Summary
Harry unintentionally opens a portal to a long forgotten test hidden in Hogwarts. Stuck in an enchanted world faced with the realisation that no one will be able to find him, he logically decides to set out and complete the trials that await. Only, the place is covered in extinct Magical Beasts and all the instructions are written in incomprehensible Ancient Runes.
So, really, it’s a very good thing he managed to bring Draco Malfoy along to help.

Summary
Draco is struggling to find a way to recover from the war with his life in shambles, his father in Azkaban, his house ransacked and the Magical government struggling to recover from the loss of so many major political figures that were caught up in the war.
With the notice of the death of his Father, Draco abandons all hope of trying to fix the world he lives in and instead makes the final purchase necessary for his most extreme plan to go back in time and stop Voldemort before he destroys everything.
Of course, then it all goes wrong. Draco finds himself a child again, and the world of his childhood is unfolding vastly different than it did the first time around.
Draco was trying to save his father, not kill him off early. Suddenly defeating Voldemort doesn't sound quite so bad in face of the real problem. How in Merlin's name is he going to tell his father he was sorted Gryffindor?
