    Summary

    What if the Hallows never existed? What if the story is no longer about the Boy who Lived, but rather about the Girl who Carried On and the Boy who Muddled Through?

    It's 1998. Voldemort has been vanquished. A battered Ministry attempts to prevent another rise of darkness while keeping the wizarding world limping along. In the shadows, the sympathizers of the defeated Dark Lord are hungry for vengeance against traitors.

    Peace is not without price. Those who'd spent their lives focused on singular goals find themselves lacking purpose. Invisible wounds from a war where all are pawns emerge and heal slowly.

    Amidst battle scars and a changing world, a romance of reluctant self-discovery begins.
