    Summary

    Harry is removed from the Dursley family when he is eight years old, and enters the wizarding world a few years younger and a lot wiser. He discovers a surprising dark heritage, and develops goals that do not involve vanquishing a certain Dark Lord or becoming the Chosen One. Adopted into the Black family, Harry will fight against the expectation that he is to defeat the Dark Lord and instead dedicates himself to protecting the dark legacy that has been left to him.

    Eventual Harry Potter/Tom Riddle | Voldemort.

    Summary

    (A/N: This story was until 29.12.2024 called "The Grey World". "The Grey World" will soon be the title of Part II of "The Grey World Series". I hope this dosn't cause confussion, and if it does I apologize, but the name change was deemed necessary.)

    The Horcrux hunt was cut short when Ron left. Not long after, Voldemort showed up and took Slytherin's locket from Harry and Hermione. The Wizarding World went into full war. Harry and Hermione stay together through it all, the loss of friends, allies and hope. Still alive and fighting, but their society is collapsing, so when Harry gets a unexpected treaty offer, it's hard to refuse.

    This story will begin at the end of the second Wizarding War and will therefore mention a lot of what comes with a war, death, trauma, loss, pain, torture, rape and more. But as of this moment I do not know how explicit I will make it, so just be warned. There will also be foul language and sexual acts, some with dubious consent, at best.

    I also post the story at fanfiction.net, under the same nick, WinterMist2.
    Do not steal my story and post anywhere else. Do not translate my story.

    I do not own any of this. This is the world and characters of J. K. Rowling.

    Summary

    Six years after the fall of Voldemort, the Ministry of Magic introduce a new statute in an attempt to counter the falling birthrate. Unmarried witches and wizards are given six months to find a spouse, or one will be chosen for them.

    Hermione’s happily settled into her life as a single witch: her work and her friends keep her busy enough. Arthur’s had six years to get used to being on his own, but when they’re matched by the new law, they’re going to have to overcome their differences and their previous relationship and learn to live with (and maybe even love?) each other.

    Currently updating on Tuesdays, but hoping to squeeze in a bonus extra chapter in here and there.

    Summary

    Albus Dumbledore's magic faded from the world ten days after his funeral. Wards, bindings, traps, controls, glamours - the scope of the wizard's interference in the Wizarding World was greater than anyone realized. Obliviated memories returned. Powerful magic was released from its chains. Geasa were broken. Thankfully, some wizards were ready. Ready to step in. To step up. To offer help and hope to the teenager who had been weighed down with too many expectations and too little information.

    His core and mind released from Dumbledore's bindings, Harry Potter would not flee, he wouldn't take off on a hopeless task handed out by a dead wizard. Severus Snape was released from Dumbledore's complete control. And Remus Lupin opened his eyes, embraced his power and oaths, and turned eagerly to protect and train his cub.

    Complete re-write of Book 7. AU.
