    Summary

    It wasn’t Quirrell and the troll, or the diary and young Tom Riddle. It wasn’t Snape or Wormtail, or even Voldemort’s return. It certainly wasn’t Umbridge or Malfoy that finally did it.

    No. It was the death of Sirius Black. That was what finally broke Harry Potter, the chosen one, the boy who lived. Finding out about the prophecy and the wards around Privet Drive were the final straw.

    When a mute Harry Potter goes back to Hogwarts for his sixth year and encounters the new DADA professor, will that be enough to completely shatter what’s left of him completely? And if it is, will the care of a certain potions master be the thing that puts him back together?
