Part One

Tom Riddle is not your average boy. Orphaned at a very young age when his mother dies giving birth to him, he is raised in Wool's Orphanage in London. On his eleventh birthday, he discovers his true heritage when a mysterious man visits him to tell him he's been accepted at a school called Hogwarts. A school of magic.

Our story begins shortly after he arrives at school, when he is starting to adjust to life at Hogwarts. The mysterious man, named Albus Dumbledore, decides to take a more proactive approach to Tom, given the boy's worrying tendencies toward violence and cruelty... and a suspicion that if he doesn't act now, terrible things will happen in the future...
