Introduction

It was eerily silent- the surrounding area dim and slighty humid... empty- despite the multitude of houses and the occassional street lamp. It was early morning- the sun hadn't even properly rose up over the horizon, yet here I stood, anxiously twisting my gloved hands together in the place where I was told to meet a man- the man who would no doubt begin my ever dreaded journey to a new and certainly desired life away from the Orphanage I grew up in.
"Ah, you must be the new seventh year! I'm Professor Dumbledore."
The amount of regret I felt in the coming hours after meeting him would surely haunt me for years to come.
