   Summary

   A world of magic is explained to Harry. A world where he can cast fireballs and levitate objects. A world where he isn’t alone, where he can find others like him.

   All magical folk have a soulmate, even Harry has one. His words are written on his right arm. He just wished the words weren't complete rubbish.

   Avada Kedavra.

   What could that even mean?

   ***

   A story in which Harry believes his soulmate bond is unreciprocated. Voldemort is his soulmate, but he's not Voldemort's. What he doesn't realize is that he's meant to speak his first words to Voldemort in a different time, not in front of the Mirror of Erised.
