“We've all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on.
That's who we really are.”
~ Sirius Black
There are moments in history where the world stands still in shock, awe, uncertainty; those moments that forever become etched into the minds of those there to witness a moment so monumental they know the world will never be the same. The Battle of Hogwarts left a vivid imprint on the many who were there to witness that terrible, yet triumphant, event nearly twenty years after. Though the victory is still celebrated, those lost commemorated, there are now generations of witches and wizards whose only impression of the Great Battle is through stories of those who remember. Stories passed down from one generation to the next; stories read in history books; stories that sometimes blur reality with fantastical.
The wizarding world has moved into a steady pace, filled with peace, rebuilding, and innovation. New efforts arose after the Battle to ensure muggle protection, and a renewed energy was put towards welcoming muggle born witches and wizards into their rightful place in the magical world.
Prejudices can never truly be stamped out, though. There are still those hiding in plain sight who believe in the power of purebloods. There are still former Death Eaters undercover, biding their time for a new wizarding world order to arise.
Whispers have started. Rumors of a box; or perhaps an urn, depending upon the originator of the story. Something that contains great evil, ready to be unleashed, and a group seeking to uncover the power waiting to be tamed.
History tests every generation, and a new test is brewing. Which side of history will each witch and wizard stand on when the time comes? Only you can decide…
OOC Timeline Notes:
Year: 2018: Time is fluid and moves with real time
Cursed Child: For the most part, Cursed Child will be ignored due to strong feelings for/against.
There are a few exceptions which follow the end of HP7 but are also canon from CC:
Professor McGonagall is Headmistress of Hogwarts
Kingsley Shacklebolt is Minister of Magic
If you choose to play a canon character, you may choose to adopt the profession that character had in CC, but don't have to.
That's who we really are.”
