Summary
James and Lily Potter died on October 31st, 1981 protecting their son Harry from the darkest wizard of the age, Lord Voldemort. Harry grew up being taught how to do the right thing, but when the Hogwarts sorting ceremony came around, him and all three of his friends were sorted into Slytherin, the house with a reputation of spitting out evil-doers one by one. As the years went by, the four kids fell into the comfort of blood rituals, illegal hexes and curses and potions, sacrifices and torture. Voldemort rises and does not face an old man and a group of do-gooders. Voldemort rises and faces a witch with a brilliant mind and no taste for mercy, two wizards that delight in bloodshed and manipulating people like chess pieces and the broken, bloody boy that's won their loyalty.
