syed chapter 10 . 1/31/2018 Want to bet to free the fair folk, the devil has to be freed as well? This devil, the actual beast or a creature a Christian magic user would call such. The inspiration behind the myth. Just because it is dangerous, it might not be truly evil. The queen agreed to go against riddle and his allies. If the devil became one of them, she could turn the power of the court against him. Tom made allies with werewolves, hags, Giants and dementors. Dementor might be largely immune to mortal magic, but I can see the fair folk really messing them up. I could see some of these beings willing to join the courts instead of tom. Say the fae are freed, could the never never be accessed once more or a version of it? I wonder where and what these other places of power are. They could be useful in the future. Will he tell anyone he saved the school, or will unleash a horde of magical creatures on the world? If magical bindings of salt, iron and blood worked once, he needs to learn them again. Learn how wizards use them, and use lash teaching to build and enhance them. Harry will need to dive in to magical history and myths. |
Treant Balewood chapter 10 . 1/31/2018 That Amy girl we've met a couple of times? Liked the chapter not quite what expect from this year and we've only just started. Looking forward to what's next, Thanks for Writing! |
red demon161 chapter 10 . 1/31/2018 Wow that was interesting. I need to see more before forming an opinion but I do like that your diverting from canon. I can't wait to see more. |
Impstar chapter 10 . 1/31/2018 Uh. Well, no one said the Fey were nice. Or anything but inhuman. Oh boy, this might backfire big-time. |
Kairan1979 chapter 10 . 1/31/2018 Thanks for the chapter. |
uresmania chapter 10 . 1/31/2018 Oooh. New and original elements! I'm glad you're continuing to flesh out more of the magical side of Harry's world without just inserting carbon copies from Dresden. I'm a little surprised that Harry didn't refine the wording of the deal, which I'm sure will work out to the Queen's advantage in some way. I'm looking forward to adventures with Harry's fairy companion, I don't think I've seen that done before. |
Kairan1979 chapter 9 . 1/30/2018 Thanks for the chapter. |
syed chapter 9 . 1/27/2018 If he could make the students believe that he was actually communicating with some one real, it could bolster his reputation. His tutor can apparently secretly communicate and view Harry over extreme distances. I am wondering if Sirius is linked to Harry via some godfather magic. This connection, and use of could allow for the dreams to be possible. Such a talent could cause Harry to dream about tom, if he experiences the brother wand effect again, and he dominates. That would be another magical link that could activate his dreamin talent. The use of his blood in the resurrection ritual could cause dreams. I wonder if bound to the triwizard tornement could have enough of a link for dreams. The thing is what could he learn from dreams concerning the other competitors. Who else would be linked by the cup? If he could control/channel/target his gift, he could spy on many people. Say he hunts for the horcrux, he would see the ring in the shack, the diadem in the junk room, the goblet in the vault, and the locket hidden away in the house, he snake on the prowl. No actual knowledge of the location, some guesses hopefully. |
AlexDnD chapter 9 . 1/27/2018 I like that the cast is expanding a bit! |
Kordesha chapter 9 . 1/27/2018 So sad that I am now all caught up... Absolutely love how well you've picked up the story and run with it! |
BusFullOfLlamas chapter 9 . 1/26/2018 Another fantastic entry into this awesome story. I'm glad that we get to see Sirius! I wonder how different he might be compared to canon! I hope he's as interesting as you've made Lupin to be so far! I loved the bit with Greengrass! And I love that we finally get to see Harry playing the political game- even if his whole idea with it is to stay out of the game. I think I would like to see more interractions with his housemates- because so far, we've not really had much of that in this story. At least not in any real significant way. I enjoyed the bit with Trelawney. I've always thought her character was interesting and horribly underused. And as some have said, it's great to see Harry's friends acting without Harry. Even if he's the main focus of the story, these extra pieces of character development are always welcome! |
xbox432 chapter 9 . 1/26/2018 Heh, looks like Harry's friends can take care of each other just as well as he can. It's nice to get a bit of development for them that doesn't center around Harry's own actions, and even better to see their own friendships flourishing. |
red demon161 chapter 9 . 1/26/2018 Another great update. I love how different Harry is from his canon self. I also like how far you moved from canon while keeping the fic interesting. I liked the Daphne's line about Harry stealing her minion. |
Slenderbrine chapter 9 . 1/26/2018 I like to imagine that Trelawney is a true Seer, but her class is fairly fake because it’s designed to root out the true Seers, as those who are truly gifted are rare |
DriftingOnlooker23 chapter 9 . 1/26/2018 i did start to like the chapter, and i know you have a lot of writers block which is tough, but i was quite dissapointed about the small size or the chapter |
