Chapter Text

Prologue

The clouds were dark and snow laden, the bitter cold wind whipped around the darkened figure standing on the snow encrusted knoll. The figure was wearing an ermine trimmed cloak and in their hand was held a solitary calla lily. Due to the shape of the cloak a person could not tell if the lone figure was male or female but that was inconsequential as the person was standing over a grave that had fallen into disrepair. One would wonder why this mysterious person was standing over such an overgrown grave, but one was only to look down on the inscription to see who was buried there:

 


Lily Marie Potter


Beloved Wife & Mother


Taken from us too young




Beside her was a vacant plot where her husband James was to be buried but his body was never retrieved from that fateful night. It was missing before the aurors could collect it. A solitary tear drops from the strangers’ eye as they wept for the travesty that had befell there two lovers. A quick whip out of their sleeve, a highly polished wand is produced and proceeds to write underneath the epitaph in a delicate flourish, Beloved sister separated from her true family, and no sooner was it written than the mysterious stranger apparated away.
