      49.Interlude-Tumultuous Summer Cover
      by Gladiusx 21st of June 1993Monday (6 days later)Sirius Black He felt apprehensive about meeting with his old friend for the first time in over a decade. After Wormtail's betrayal, a grain of doubt lingered in Sirius's mind. For how long had Peter spied on them for Voldemort? Was it since they were in school? Did he ever truly know him? What about Remus? Sirius was unsure if his apprehension stemmed from meeting his friend after so long, or if he was just miffed it had taken a year and a half to finally get word…

      48.Turning Point Cover
      by Gladiusx 9th Day of the 11th MoonGarlan Tyrell, somewhere on the Rose Road "The Lannisters are not our foes," his father pointed out righteously. "Eddard Stark is an honourable man. He would never conspire against His Grace." Garlan had to give it to the Lord of Storm's End; he knew how to stay composed, although the knight could feel Renly's patience was dwindling. Loras and the king's youngest brother had caught up to them yesterday, just a few days from Bitterbridge. Now, they were resting under a green…

      by Gladiusx Beginning of June 1993Harry Potter "We don't need to trust Dumbledore to use him," Juno said when he shared his conversation with Helena Ravenclaw. "What we can trust in is his commitment to stand against the Dark Lord." The two of them gathered in the Chamber of Secrets again, the lone desk joined by two sofas and a lacquered ebony table laden with snacks and steaming cups of tea prepared by Wally. Harry never imagined this dreadful place could be cosy or welcoming, but Juno managed to make it…

      47.Far from Home Cover
      by Gladiusx 3rd Day of the 11th MoonSansa Stark In barely half a year, so many things had changed. Knights and princes and kings had somehow… lost their lustre. The blatant disrespect Robert Baratheon showed towards his wife was… unexpectedly jarring. The king's wishes were law, and Sansa didn't think of it then, but now she had time to reflect. Being neither a queen nor wed to a prince or a gallant knight looked as appealing anymore. Sansa couldn't help but notice that Myrcella had not mentioned her mother…

      by Gladiusx 29th of May 1993, SaturdayJuno It was a pleasant late spring day, and the sun shone bright enough to break apart the clouds. The Hogwarts grounds were flush with students milling around or resting in the shade of trees or columns. With the final exams nearing, many had brought their textbooks and notes, studying feverishly. "Why do you bother with Astronomy?" Padma asked. "Didn't you take your O.W.L. for it?" "I did. But I am still attending the second-year exams anyway," she said. "What about…

      by Gladiusx 23rd day of the 10th MoonThe Master of Laws The seed is strong. Jon Arryn's last words echoed ominously in his head. He didn't think much of it when Pycelle had said it, but the phrase just couldn't get out of his mind. The flickering candlelight barely illuminated the old, yellowed pages of The Lineages and Histories of the Great Houses of the Seven Kingdoms. There was nothing of interest or surprise in the long-winded record of histories as far as Renly could tell. The whole thing was…

      by Gladiusx The first months of 1993Amelia Bones "I decided to apply out of concern for the children and the school, not because I want to fight or scheme, headmaster Dumbledore," Amelia had said. "I do not want to hear of, let alone join, any borderline illegal associations. My elder brother and father did, and it only got them an early grave. Frankly, I don't trust you, especially after last year's fiasco with Petrov and Quirrell's death." The old warlock didn't seem offended; on the contrary, the twinkle in…

      by Gladiusx 26th of December 1992, SaturdayRon Weasley "He should never have gone without a wand, Molly!" Seeing his father lose his composure was unnerving; he had been worried sick when he picked him up from the Ministry after Damien's father called him. Once he was sure Ron was unharmed, his father simply hugged him and brought him home. For a moment, Ron thought that was the end of it, but that calm was but a storm brewing in his heart once they were home. For once, it was not directed at him. Hearing…

      by Gladiusx 19th Day of the 10th MoonThe Master of Coin Half a moon after the tourney had ended, King's Landing had finally calmed down from the craze, and the streets and inns were no longer overflowing. The evening was approaching, and it took Tyrion an hour to finally find the former Hand. The docks were overflowing with Northmen boarding heavy carracks, the green mermen and the grey direwolf banners proudly fluttering in the wind above. Dozens of prized steeds were brought up to the ship's stables, the noblemen…

      by Gladiusx 22nd December 1992 (same day)Albus Dumbledore Twice slain, thrice risen, the herald of death shall once again face destiny. It didn't make sense. Twice slain implied the herald of death would be… well, dead. But then again, prophecies rarely made any sense. His meditation sessions had become significantly more effective in suppressing the Death Stick's influence after All Hallows' Eve. Whatever had happened that day had brought a significant change in the Hallow, and the bloodthirsty artefact…
