Summary
There's a book in Voldemort's private library that can explain this kind of magic. The cover is black and shiny and looks like it's breathing. Harry really wants to take a look at chapter three, no matter what it takes.

Summary
During the Battle of Hogwarts, Harry goes into the Forbidden Forest to surrender his life to Voldemort. When the Dark Lord tries to kill him, they both get knocked unconscious. Harry wakes up first and, owing to Dumbledore’s Pensieve trips showing Harry Tom Riddle’s miserable childhood, Harry instead decides to Apparate away and deliver Voldemort to the Ministry to be imprisoned, like Dumbledore did with Grindelwald. The Ministry, however, chooses to execute the Dark Lord.
Twelve years later, Harry is suffering. His magic is unhinged and he doesn’t feel right, but when he stumbles upon a horrific scene in a cell at the Ministry, suddenly he comes back to himself.
Voldemort is being tortured by the Ministry of Magic and no one but his three guards and the Minister knows about his existence. They are keeping his life a secret because they are unable to kill him and his power is such that they know he will not be able to be contained forever.
Harry is left struggling with the many shifting ways to do the right thing and the changing question of: right thing by whom?

Summary
In a universe where Harry never takes on a part of the Dark Lord’s soul, existence has never really found a meaning for him. He struggles to find purpose. Fed up with his lack of direction, his parents jumped at an opportunity to put some color into his monochrome reality. They do so, of course, without his willingness or acquiescence: by arranging his marriage. The result? He must learn to cope with someone whom he considers to be completely abhorrent: Tom Riddle.
While Harry seems to hate Tom, he finds himself interested in a Dark Lord who frequents Riddle Manor.
