   Summary

   Seven years after the war, peace has twisted from a gift into another form of confinement.
   For Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy, the true war did not end amid the ruins of Hogwarts. It continued—silently—in the paper-choked corridors of the Auror Office, and beneath the long shadows cast by family reckonings.
   Across twelve cities, in a state of constant transit, they began to shed the obsolete skins of hero and criminal. Like the Ship of Theseus, they replaced themselves piece by piece, stripping away bone and blood no longer fit for this world.
