Chapter 1: Information

Chapter Text

This story takes place several years after the events of Hogwarts Legacy, in a reimagined continuation where the consequences of ancient magic, war, and unspoken truths still linger within Hogwarts. All characters portrayed—whether original or adapted—are of age, and the setting reflects a more mature, introspective tone grounded in the lives of former students who have grown into adults shaped by the past.

While much of the foundation remains faithful to the game's spirit, I've taken narrative liberties in order to explore certain emotional arcs and relationships more deeply. These changes were made with care, to serve the story's themes of loss, distance, and the fragile thread of connection that survives even the heaviest silence. For example, the battle against Ranrok takes place in the 7th year, leaving room in the years prior to that to let the characters make stronger relationships.

Consider this tale an expansion of the world, seen through older eyes and quieter moments.

And I'd like to say that english it's not my first language, so please excuse me if i make mistakes in that area.

Thank you for reading.
