Hogwarts Legends, A History
::1997-1998::
A glistening half-moon crept across the horizon, setting everything below in a silver twinge glow. The hushed silence was only broken by the drizzle of rain or from the whispers of the nearby trees. It would have been a magical night if it were not for the growing fear that swept throughout the chilled air. There was a stirring in the shadows, a knowledge that something was arriving. Yet a blanket of fog made it difficult to see just what was coming.
A terrible war had broken out across the world and was being led by horrific Lord Voledmort. Dominance was almost complete; there was just one last piece of business to take care of. This was the final showdown that was numerous years in the making. Hopefully the ultimate outcome would be payback for all those who had already lost their lives. Leading the forefront for the side of peace was none other than Minerva Mcgonagall. She had worked long and hard to recruit many to lend a helping hand. Without her tireless efforts one could only imagine what would have happened.
Finally the night of reckoning had arrived; there was no turning back now. In a nearby clearing, a towering figure outlined with menace was waiting for its prey. Before even another minute passed a second figure joined the first. They turned to face each other, drawing their wands out in front of them. Each pair of eyes was flashing like bolts of lightning. This night was in both of their ultimate destines, something neither had ever been able to get away from. Although, it was not from a lack of trying to prevent what was about to occur. Rain pounded their frames as spells were cast back and forth between them.
There stood Harry Potter, roughly shoving dripping locks of hair from his weary green eyes, unknowing exposing the lightning bold scar that had become his trademark. The scar had made all of this happen and he had finally come to accept it. There were times of course that he wanted to give it all up but deep down he knew that he was meant to do this. Yet he still had to wonder why his fate had to come to this. He never had a say in the matter and at times that made him very angry. Others would have folded under the pressure and the pain but not Harry James Potter. Instead he was standing tall and proud. All his struggles had formed who he was today and quite frankly that was something he did not want to change. If this route was his pre-destined path then he was going to perform at the best of his abilities. He was not going down without a fierce battle to prevent it.
Before Harry had time to contemplate another notion, he was violently brought to his knees by one of the Dark Lord’s powerful hexes. Grim clung to his body as he landed in consuming pools of mud. However, he did not let any amount of pain show on his dirty face. Quickly he returned to his feet, in his haste he missed the group of people who were now joining the battle sidelines. While Harry tighten his grip on his wand, a figure darted out onto the field. Harry’s eyes flicked upwards, falling onto the face of Severus Snape. Harry groaned and was tempted to hex Snape into oblivion but Harry knew he did not have the time or energy to waste on the git.
“Always playing the hero, aren’t you Potter,’ Snape sneered.
Harry opened his mouth determined to tell Snape to leave but stopped when his eyes finally rested on the rest of the group standing there. His heart sank to see: Hermione, Ron, Ginny, Neville, Luna and George. Harry had told them to stay where it was safe but he should have known that they would not listen to him. Snape drew closer to Harry and effortlessly shoved him out of the way. The Dark Lord looked somewhat unnerved for a brief moment but quickly regained his look of pure evil.
“I knew it would come down to this Severus. You never were a good follower. Always seemed to find a way to become a leader yourself, “ the Dark Lord hissed.
Snape did not speak a word; instead he raised his hand baring his wand, unleashing a string of hexes and curses. Snape was in top form and for a moment it appeared that the Dark Lord was indeed failing. That was until Voldemort uttered the dreadful—Avada Kedavra. Time seemed to turn slow as Harry barely took time to think and tried to move to knock Snape out of the way, actually saving him. Ginny realizing the dangerous move Harry was about to perform got there first.
“Ginny! NO!” Harry shouted. But it was too late. Ginny’s body fell into a heap on the ground and not another movement was made from her now lifeless body. Harry dropped down beside her and stroked her beautiful face. He realized while looking down upon her that he loved her more than he had ever wanted to admit. And now he was never going to have the chance to tell her. Images of what could have been flashed before his eyes; their wedding filled with all those they loved. Then a few years later, welcoming their first of many children into the world. The images disappeared as quickly as they arrived and left Harry with a hollow and dark lump in his chest. Nothing had ever made him feel this bad and made him madder than he had ever been in his entire life.
Harry climbed to his feet; rage boiling within him. He raised his wand and creamed in a voice he had never heard before, “Avada Kedavra!” The Dark Lord barely had anytime to react before he fell to the ground. The deed was finally done. Harry Potter had defeated the Dark Lord and had saved the entire Wizarding world. But the victory had come at a most terrible price. Harry had lost just about everyone that had meant something to him. He felt tired and wanted nothing more than to sleep. So it was darkness that came to Harry then. But before he lost touch with reality, he saw a familiar mess of red hair screaming, “That was bloody brilliant Harry!” What Harry did not know was another figure stood closely guarded in the shadows. The figure would soon become worst than Voldemort had ever been. The figure was just waiting for the moment they would be able to rise and take the Wizarding world by storm.
::2002::[/SIZE]
It has now been quite a few years since the Dark Lord’s defeat by Mister Harry James Potter. After this heroic event everyone wanted to associate with Harry but all he wanted was to be left alone for once and for all. His entire life he had to deal with people staring and whispering about him; he was more than tired of it. He now wanted to have a quiet and simple life. However, before he disappeared from the radar Harry returned to the place he had lost Sirius Black so long ago. He had to try once more to save him. Harry knew that he would never be satisfied unless he tried. Many hours of intense work went by but Harry managed to rescue Sirius. If that was not good enough Sirius came back with Ginny! Harry could barely believe his eyes and thought for sure that he must be dreaming. But it was thankfully not a dream. All three cried for many hours, happy to reunited. Only days afterwards Harry and Ginny were married in a quiet ceremony that was only filled with close friends and family members.
The newfound peace made it decided that Hogwarts would open once again and allow students to enroll. The new Headmaster would be none other than Filius Flitwick. At this time many of the old faculty returned to their old positions, except those who were still completing up missions they were assigned. The days leading up to the re-opening had been rocky to say the least. The Ministry had not really wanted the school to open in fear of rebellion. Although, that is just what they received when the Ministry delivered news that they were considering not opening the school. Future students were outraged at the possibility that they were not going to have the same opportunities as past witches and wizards. These events promoted the Ministry to allow the school to open and stay out of it. Laughter and joy echoed through the corridors of Hogwarts. It remained so until the year of 2009.
::2006::
Before Lucius Malfoy became the new Dark Lord, Bellatrix Lestrange gave birth to triplets. The Dark Lord told her to place the three in separate houses to be raised by others. Bellatrix did not understand why but did as Lucius told her. Therefore, one child was left on the Potter’s doorstep, another on the Malfoy’s doorstep and the last on Lupin and Tonks’s doorstep. Each child has grown up believing that the parents that raised them are their real parents. Also neither of them knows that they are apart of a triplet. But one day soon they will have to learn the truth and it makes one wonder how that is going to turn out. Now what Bellatrix did not know is that there is a prophecy made about the triplets.
The prophecy said:
On all hollows eve
Three shall be conceived
So that one day
They shall bring about what I say
There will be darkness
Which is the beginning mark
One child of the three
Will bring about the most horrific deed
This one child will bring the bond
Going to be fought for so long
Only he can unite
The old Dark Lord and the New
It is why he must be destroyed.
This prophecy was lost long ago and quickly forgotten until recently that is. The prophecy has once again been uncovered but thankfully few have heard it. Those who known about the prophecy have to wonder which child the prophecy could be talking about. It is always pondering which three children could be triplets. If this one child can bring together the forces of Lucius Malfoy and Tom Riddle, what hoped will there be? It will be a race to find which child the prophecy is referring to. Only he is the key to the destruction of everything.
::2009::
In the year 2009, Hogwarts had to close because of a new sinister threat. This time the threat turned out to be from Lucius Malfoy, who chose to call himself Lord Lucius or the Dark Lord. Until this present moment many had convinced themselves that Lucious was among the dead. However, that notion was clearly shattered. Lucius was breaking the bonds of secrecy and displaying full force the deeds he was vowing on committing.
It was even whispered that Lucius had paid a visit to the mystic elves to make him fully immortal. The elves tried to explain to Lucius that no one was really indestructible but Lucius would not hear of it. Therefore, the elves complied with his wishes but gave him a hidden addition, one that he does not know about. The elves had been so furious with Lucius’s attitude that they only made him a half-immortal, which meant he was more vulnerable than he would have been being a full immortal. However, the elves made sure that he would never age so that Lucius could never realize their trickery.
Almost everyone capable joined the Order headed by Minerva Mcgonagall to try and prevent Lucius from overtaking. Even Headmaster Flitwick threw in his talents; despite others pleading for him not to. It was feared that he would be killed and in 2010 just that event happened. Mourning extended for quite sometime after that. At the funeral countless speeches were given to remember a man that truly cared about others. One of the most moving speeches came from Trisha Brimmer, a witch who had recently graduated from Hogwarts and had been very close to Headmaster Flitwick. Trisha did not know it yet but very soon she would become quite important to Hogwarts.
There was barely any protest when Hogwarts closed this time around. Everyone was too busy fighting the current horrors to worry about what the Ministry was doing this time. In 2011, the death toll reached an all time high. So many families had lost love ones and the hope of the terror ending was starting to fade. Among the deceased were: Arthur and Molly Weasley and Snape. In 2012, an unknown witch joined the battle on the side of the Order. Luckily this witch was able to wound Lucius, making him and his Death Eaters retreat..at least for now. Everyone wanted to thank her from the bottom of his or her hearts but she disappeared before anyone had the chance too. The only feature anyone saw of her was her dark, wavy hair that had fallen out of her hood during her dueling.
::2013:
During this year, Minerva Mcgonagall returned from the secret headquarters she had been stationed at. It was largely thanks to her that the Order had been gathered so quickly. It is indeed true that Minerva Mcgonagall deserved to take a break and rest but that was the very last thing on her mind. The one thing she really wanted to do was get Hogwarts open. Therefore, she marched over to the Ministry and pleaded her case. The Ministry could see no harm since the first wave of darkness was firmly behind the realm. Minerva Mcgonagall was very delighted and set about getting everything in proper order.
The first order of business was to find the school a whole new faculty since most had been killed or were still on undercover missions. The staff filled quickly except for: Head of house for Gryffindor and Professors for Charms and Defense Against the Dark Arts. Within a few short days all were filled except, Gryffindors head of house and Professor for Charms. The witch who would accept these positions was already quite busy and teaching was the last thing on her mind. That was until she received an owl that would change everything. The owl was requesting that Trisha returned to Hogwarts and take up the positions of Gryffindors Head of House and Professor for Charms. At first Trisha was not sure what she wanted to do but quickly decided to go ahead and accept.
Thus Hogwarts re-opened for a glorious new term. Professor Brimmer, was well liked by the students. She was known as tough but fair. The school remained undisrupted until 2019. This year held the death of Minerva Mcgonagall due to an odd case of Dragon Pox. The news hit everyone really hard, especially the students. Hogwarts doors closed for mourning but were scheduled to reopen in a few short days. Trisha doubted that she would return to Hogwarts but changed her mind when she was offered to become the New Headmistress. She vowed to maintain the school in the highest standards to honor the memory of the past Headmasters and Headmistress.
::2020:: ~ The Present Form of Reality[/SIZE]
Headmistress Trisha Brimmer carefully climbed down the steps to reach Courtroom Ten. She could hardly believe that she was going to speak before the Ministry. Taking a deep breath, she reached out and pulled up the door. Instantly her eyes were met with many stern faces. Keeping up her nerve, she stepped inside and stopped in front of the group staring at her and prepared to speak.
“Good morning Ladies and Gentlemen. I have requested this meeting for the sole purpose of discussing the welfare of our beloved realm. I believe we should add a few things to ensure our safety. First off, I think it would be in our best interests to add a court that could help the Ministry run everything. Neither could do anything monumental without consulting the other. It would add a form of checks and balances.” Trisha paused here to see how her first piece of news was going over. It actually seemed to not be going so bad but then again the officials could just be hiding their disgust.
With a slight smile Trisha continued. “My next idea is to summon the legendary knights to return to service. They have not served since the ages of Camelot. I strongly believe they could assist in bringing about peace to Quillen. The ceremony of dragons could be underway in mere weeks, electing the new Knights.”
The Minster nodded and motioned for Trisha to leave the court. As she was rushing back out into the corridor Trisha bumped into a very handsome man. Out of the corner of her eye Trisha saw that it was Sirius Black. Until this very moment Trisha had only seen pictures of him from Hermione and Ron. Sirius gave her a dashing smile before continuing on his way. Trisha watched him walk away wondering when she was going to see him again.
************************************************
Sirius Black still had a smile on his face when he reached the courtroom door. He had to meet with the court before he went to talk to Ron. The purpose of his visit was to show the court the time turner that had been brought back with him from the veil. He also had to discuss the clearing of his name and so forth. He started to go inside but halted instead. Slowly he lifted the peculiar instrument in his feels, feeling it grow extremely hot.
“OW,” he yelled and watched with horror as the time turner fell to the floor below. The entire area went black and Sirius felt an odd sensation wash over his entire frame. The oddly enhanced time turner on the floor whizzed through the years, bring back witches and wizards who had long ago deceased or had unfortunate befall upon them. However, here they stood, alive as ever. In front of Sirius stood: James Potter, Lily Potter, Peter Pettigrew, Frank Longbottom, Alice Longbottom, Arthur Weasley, Molly Weasley, Snape and finally most scary of all was Tom Riddle. Tom was the youngest of them all and appeared to only be in his late twenties.
Sirius face grew pale to see those who had been deceased standing in front of him like nothing had ever happened. He knew Harry, Ron and Neville would be thrilled to see their parents again but that was beside the point. He began to wonder how on Merlin’s beard he was going to explain this. Why did odd things have to always happen to him? Especially when he was just being accepted again.
James Potter was the first to come over to Sirius and say, “Lookin good, Sirius.” Sirius looked at him, wondering how he could say that when he was apparently so much older. To dispel the notions Sirius took out a mirror but instead of seeing the face he saw that very morning, Sirius saw a much younger face looking back at him. He had to be in his early thirties now.
While the odd friends warmly embraced each other, Tom Riddle fled. No doubt he would be caught by Lucius Malfoy as would be the case with Peter. But how long would Tom be content with being under the orders of someone else? And how is everyone going to react to the new arrivals?
::The Following Morning::[/SIZE]
Issued on Behalf of the Ministry of Magic
{The following pamphlet was issued to every single Witch and Wizard}
Dear Citizens of Quillen,
It has been brought to our attention that some changes are in order to ensure our peace and safety. The first of these changes is to add a court. This court will assist in the mattes of the realm and will deal more with Hogwarts than the Ministry. Miss Trisha Brimmer will lead this court. She also happens to be the Headmistress of Hogwarts. The second addition to the realm will be the return of the Legendary Knights. They will be lead by the brother of Trisha Brimmer. He goes by the name of Dark Knight. The ceremony of dragons will commence shortly. Apply to become a knight while you still have the chance too. Another matter of vast importance is the merger of the three-wizarding schools. The Ministry has decided that it is much too dangerous for all of us to be split up in the times we live in. Therefore, Hogwarts will house all feature students of Durmstrang and Beauxbatons. We have of course expanded Hogwarts to accommodate all the new students. The last piece of business is to inform everyone of a most odd occurrence. It appears that Sirius Black had in his possession an odd time turner that brought back those who had been deceased. We ask that everyone treat the new comers with respect.
The last thing I have to say is stay alert and keep safe. These are dark times we live in but together we can conqueror it all.
Minster Christopher Brimmer
::It's All Brand New::[/size]
After the rise of the new Dark Lord it was decided that change needed to occur. The major and most vital change needed to happen was with the magical community. The last war established the danger muggles presented to the magical ones. Thus it was decided that the wizarding community would create their very own realm. This realm would be entirely magical and separate from the muggle world. Therefore, witches and wizards would not have to worry about hiding their true magic. The only muggles that would dwell in the realm would be ones that knew about magic and/or were involved with the craft.
The plans were all finalized except for one detail. The last piece of business to take care of was to figure out how to run the realm. In the fighting over the issue two groups emerged. The first group wanted to keep things as they already were; while the second group wanted to form more of a dictatorship. The latter of the two groups was filled with the darker and more rigid pureblood types. It did not take long for Lucius Malfoy to catch wind of the group and once he did he made himself the ringleader. The group chose to call themselves—Rising Warriors. Lucius Malfoy would run it until the time that Tom Riddle was brought back by the time turner.
The first group chose to merge with The Order. It did not take long at all until The Order was full of members. However, the case was the same with The Rising Warriors as well. The Warriors main mission was to cleanse the Wizarding community and have the realm become a place that was free of mudbloods and blood traitors, while the mission of the first group was to have peace and equality. Once the two sides gained momentum species and creatures started to join sides. Some that joined the darker side were the trolls, the giants, the dementors and the fallen beast. Some that joined the good side were the fauns, the pixies, the fairies, the dwarves, the hobbits and most of the elves. It was the black elves that joined the Warriors. It also seemed that the Vampires and the Werewolves were divided in which sides they joined. It mainly depended on the clan as to what side was taken.
It seemed hopeless that a decision that pleased both parties would ever be reached so the Ministry decided to go along with The Order and keep things the same as they always had been. Therefore, Quillen was created and run in the manner it had been for centuries. It was safe to say this did not make The Warriors, The Death Eaters or Lucius Malfoy very happy, which is why they have secretly taken their cause underground to keep developing plans to overthrow everything. Both sides even have groups at Hogwarts to lend to their causes, although, neither side knows what the other is really doing.
All of this has created unrest in the Ministry, making the Ministry as paranoid as ever. Because of this the Ministry has strengthened their hold on the community and made it required for everyone to have Identity Cards. Each card declares: Name, Age, Bloodline, Career and Loyalty. If the person’s loyalty does not lie with the Ministry and the Order then the person is considered an outcast and is not really treated all that nicely. The rise of lying has risen to an all time high. Either people learn to deal with being an outcast and declare their true allegiances or they hide their true loyalties and join the Underground Society in secret.
Quillen is made up of many different islands and places. The largest land is named Alleo, the second largest is named Perma and the third largest is named Mohen. Alleo is where mostly everything is and where most people live. It is roughly the size of England. Perma The realm is in a different dimension from the Muggle world. Fixtures of the wizarding community have been transferred to Quillen; such as: Hogwarts, Hogsmeade, St. Mungo’s, Ministry of Magic, Knockturn Alley, Diagon Alley and Azkaban. Many new species have emerged in the realm and even a race of talking animals has popped up. It seems new places and things are being added every single day. One can never know what they are going to find when they go exploring in the realm of Quillen.
So what will you do when no place is really safe and liars are around every corner? Who will you trust when everyone is hiding something? But most of all how will you be remembered in the legends that are just beginning to be written?

Trisha did not know it yet but very soon she would become quite important to Hogwarts.
There was barely any protest when Hogwarts closed this time around. Everyone was too busy fighting the current horrors to worry about what the Ministry was doing this time. In 2011, the death toll reached an all time high. So many families had lost love ones and the hope of the terror ending was starting to fade. Among the deceased were: Arthur and Molly Weasley and Snape. In 2012, an unknown witch joined the battle on the side of the Order. Luckily this witch was able to wound Lucius, making him and his Death Eaters retreat..at least for now. Everyone wanted to thank her from the bottom of his or her hearts but she disappeared before anyone had the chance too. The only feature anyone saw of her was her dark, wavy hair that had fallen out of her hood during her dueling.
::2013:
During this year, Minerva Mcgonagall returned from the secret headquarters she had been stationed at. It was largely thanks to her that the Order had been gathered so quickly. It is indeed true that Minerva Mcgonagall deserved to take a break and rest but that was the very last thing on her mind. The one thing she really wanted to do was get Hogwarts open. Therefore, she marched over to the Ministry and pleaded her case. The Ministry could see no harm since the first wave of darkness was firmly behind the realm. Minerva Mcgonagall was very delighted and set about getting everything in proper order.
The first order of business was to find the school a whole new faculty since most had been killed or were still on undercover missions. The staff filled quickly except for: Head of house for Gryffindor and Professors for Charms and Defense Against the Dark Arts. Within a few short days all were filled except, Gryffindors head of house and Professor for Charms. The witch who would accept these positions was already quite busy and teaching was the last thing on her mind. That was until she received an owl that would change everything. The owl was requesting that Trisha returned to Hogwarts and take up the positions of Gryffindors Head of House and Professor for Charms. At first Trisha was not sure what she wanted to do but quickly decided to go ahead and accept.
Thus Hogwarts re-opened for a glorious new term. Professor Brimmer, was well liked by the students. She was known as tough but fair. The school remained undisrupted until 2019. This year held the death of Minerva Mcgonagall due to an odd case of Dragon Pox. The news hit everyone really hard, especially the students. Hogwarts doors closed for mourning but were scheduled to reopen in a few short days. Trisha doubted that she would return to Hogwarts but changed her mind when she was offered to become the New Headmistress. She vowed to maintain the school in the highest standards to honor the memory of the past Headmasters and Headmistress.
::2020:: ~ The Present Form of Reality[/SIZE]
Headmistress Trisha Brimmer carefully climbed down the steps to reach Courtroom Ten. She could hardly believe that she was going to speak before the Ministry. Taking a deep breath, she reached out and pulled up the door. Instantly her eyes were met with many stern faces. Keeping up her nerve, she stepped inside and stopped in front of the group staring at her and prepared to speak.
“Good morning Ladies and Gentlemen. I have requested this meeting for the sole purpose of discussing the welfare of our beloved realm. I believe we should add a few things to ensure our safety. First off, I think it would be in our best interests to add a court that could help the Ministry run everything. Neither could do anything monumental without consulting the other. It would add a form of checks and balances.” Trisha paused here to see how her first piece of news was going over. It actually seemed to not be going so bad but then again the officials could just be hiding their disgust.
With a slight smile Trisha continued. “My next idea is to summon the legendary knights to return to service. They have not served since the ages of Camelot. I strongly believe they could assist in bringing about peace to Quillen. The ceremony of dragons could be underway in mere weeks, electing the new Knights.”
The Minster nodded and motioned for Trisha to leave the court. As she was rushing back out into the corridor Trisha bumped into a very handsome man. Out of the corner of her eye Trisha saw that it was Sirius Black. Until this very moment Trisha had only seen pictures of him from Hermione and Ron. Sirius gave her a dashing smile before continuing on his way. Trisha watched him walk away wondering when she was going to see him again.
************************************************
Sirius Black still had a smile on his face when he reached the courtroom door. He had to meet with the court before he went to talk to Ron. The purpose of his visit was to show the court the time turner that had been brought back with him from the veil. He also had to discuss the clearing of his name and so forth. He started to go inside but halted instead. Slowly he lifted the peculiar instrument in his feels, feeling it grow extremely hot.
“OW,” he yelled and watched with horror as the time turner fell to the floor below. The entire area went black and Sirius felt an odd sensation wash over his entire frame. The oddly enhanced time turner on the floor whizzed through the years, bring back witches and wizards who had long ago deceased or had unfortunate befall upon them. However, here they stood, alive as ever. In front of Sirius stood: James Potter, Lily Potter, Peter Pettigrew, Frank Longbottom, Alice Longbottom, Arthur Weasley, Molly Weasley, Snape and finally most scary of all was Tom Riddle. Tom was the youngest of them all and appeared to only be in his late twenties.
Sirius face grew pale to see those who had been deceased standing in front of him like nothing had ever happened. He knew Harry, Ron and Neville would be thrilled to see their parents again but that was beside the point. He began to wonder how on Merlin’s beard he was going to explain this. Why did odd things have to always happen to him? Especially when he was just being accepted again.
James Potter was the first to come over to Sirius and say, “Lookin good, Sirius.” Sirius looked at him, wondering how he could say that when he was apparently so much older. To dispel the notions Sirius took out a mirror but instead of seeing the face he saw that very morning, Sirius saw a much younger face looking back at him. He had to be in his early thirties now.
While the odd friends warmly embraced each other, Tom Riddle fled. No doubt he would be caught by Lucius Malfoy as would be the case with Peter. But how long would Tom be content with being under the orders of someone else? And how is everyone going to react to the new arrivals?
::The Following Morning::[/SIZE]
Issued on Behalf of the Ministry of Magic
{The following pamphlet was issued to every single Witch and Wizard}
Dear Citizens of Quillen,
It has been brought to our attention that some changes are in order to ensure our peace and safety. The first of these changes is to add a court. This court will assist in the mattes of the realm and will deal more with Hogwarts than the Ministry. Miss Trisha Brimmer will lead this court. She also happens to be the Headmistress of Hogwarts. The second addition to the realm will be the return of the Legendary Knights. They will be lead by the brother of Trisha Brimmer. He goes by the name of Dark Knight. The ceremony of dragons will commence shortly. Apply to become a knight while you still have the chance too. Another matter of vast importance is the merger of the three-wizarding schools. The Ministry has decided that it is much too dangerous for all of us to be split up in the times we live in. Therefore, Hogwarts will house all feature students of Durmstrang and Beauxbatons. We have of course expanded Hogwarts to accommodate all the new students. The last piece of business is to inform everyone of a most odd occurrence. It appears that Sirius Black had in his possession an odd time turner that brought back those who had been deceased. We ask that everyone treat the new comers with respect.
The last thing I have to say is stay alert and keep safe. These are dark times we live in but together we can conqueror it all.
Minster Christopher Brimmer
::It's All Brand New::[/size]
After the rise of the new Dark Lord it was decided that change needed to occur. The major and most vital change needed to happen was with the magical community. The last war established the danger muggles presented to the magical ones. Thus it was decided that the wizarding community would create their very own realm. This realm would be entirely magical and separate from the muggle world. Therefore, witches and wizards would not have to worry about hiding their true magic. The only muggles that would dwell in the realm would be ones that knew about magic and/or were involved with the craft.
The plans were all finalized except for one detail. The last piece of business to take care of was to figure out how to run the realm. In the fighting over the issue two groups emerged. The first group wanted to keep things as they already were; while the second group wanted to form more of a dictatorship. The latter of the two groups was filled with the darker and more rigid pureblood types. It did not take long for Lucius Malfoy to catch wind of the group and once he did he made himself the ringleader. The group chose to call themselves—Rising Warriors. Lucius Malfoy would run it until the time that Tom Riddle was brought back by the time turner.
The first group chose to merge with The Order. It did not take long at all until The Order was full of members. However, the case was the same with The Rising Warriors as well. The Warriors main mission was to cleanse the Wizarding community and have the realm become a place that was free of mudbloods and blood traitors, while the mission of the first group was to have peace and equality. Once the two sides gained momentum species and creatures started to join sides. Some that joined the darker side were the trolls, the giants, the dementors and the fallen beast. Some that joined the good side were the fauns, the pixies, the fairies, the dwarves, the hobbits and most of the elves. It was the black elves that joined the Warriors. It also seemed that the Vampires and the Werewolves were divided in which sides they joined. It mainly depended on the clan as to what side was taken.
It seemed hopeless that a decision that pleased both parties would ever be reached so the Ministry decided to go along with The Order and keep things the same as they always had been. Therefore, Quillen was created and run in the manner it had been for centuries. It was safe to say this did not make The Warriors, The Death Eaters or Lucius Malfoy very happy, which is why they have secretly taken their cause underground to keep developing plans to overthrow everything. Both sides even have groups at Hogwarts to lend to their causes, although, neither side knows what the other is really doing.
All of this has created unrest in the Ministry, making the Ministry as paranoid as ever. Because of this the Ministry has strengthened their hold on the community and made it required for everyone to have Identity Cards. Each card declares: Name, Age, Bloodline, Career and Loyalty. If the person’s loyalty does not lie with the Ministry and the Order then the person is considered an outcast and is not really treated all that nicely. The rise of lying has risen to an all time high. Either people learn to deal with being an outcast and declare their true allegiances or they hide their true loyalties and join the Underground Society in secret.
Quillen is made up of many different islands and places. The largest land is named Alleo, the second largest is named Perma and the third largest is named Mohen. Alleo is where mostly everything is and where most people live. It is roughly the size of England. Perma The realm is in a different dimension from the Muggle world. Fixtures of the wizarding community have been transferred to Quillen; such as: Hogwarts, Hogsmeade, St. Mungo’s, Ministry of Magic, Knockturn Alley, Diagon Alley and Azkaban. Many new species have emerged in the realm and even a race of talking animals has popped up. It seems new places and things are being added every single day. One can never know what they are going to find when they go exploring in the realm of Quillen.
So what will you do when no place is really safe and liars are around every corner? Who will you trust when everyone is hiding something? But most of all how will you be remembered in the legends that are just beginning to be written?
