But one that can still be told
About a man who loved
And lost a friend to death
And learned he lacked the power
To bring him back to life." - The Epic of Gilgamesh, trans. Herbert MasonAt the start of his sixth year, Tom Riddle has a brief but significant encounter with a mysterious boy who tries to kill him. Everything changes after that.

hidden in the sun-flecked grass,
remembers what it once held.
