Thank you^^ I would love to, I absolutly adore those family trees. However I am not too sure which one you mean. I have technically only made one for this whole story, but it has way over 500 People and near 20 generations. So I mostly use parts of it, little snippets through out the story. So because of spoilers I can only explain the snippets I have already published. So which one are you talking about: I. At the very start of the book Arcturus talks about his family while visiting the tapestry. II. During the indentity test of Henry. III. The relations between Hades, Dora and Charlie in Welcome to the Underworld. IV. At Kingscross the Potters talk about their connection to the Blacks.
Or all of the above?
The entire thing will eventually be published but as it's the absolut base of this whole story, the first thing I created, it would reveal waaaayyy to much about the plot for it to be any earlier then the very last chapters.
This is really amazing what you did there. And that is totally understandable, I don't want to be spoiled either. I'm looking forward to the whole family tree being published. Can you explain all of these snippets to me? ^^
I will combine the snippets but it will be a long family tree. I will add a drawing of it with the next chapter but add them here after anyway. But it will be one long ass comment. I'm honeslty surprised it fit in one. And I did not correct any spelling here.
Ok so got Phineas Nigellus I (1847-1925) as the root. He married Ursula Flint (1877-1989) and they had five children: Sirius Phineas II (1877-1952) -> he was the Heir of this generation and became Lord Black in 1925 Phineas Corvus II (1878-?) -> ran away with a muggle wife and was disowned Arcuturs Nigellus II (1884-1960) Belvina Ursula (1886-?) -> wasn't actually mentioned I think, but doesn't matter Cygnus Celestinus II (1889-1943)

So going back to the first set of Siblings here, Phineas Nigellus I's children. Sirius Phineas is done and Phineas Corvus's possible children and spouse are unknown by the tapestry however he was disowned for marring a muggle. So let's continue with his younger brother:

Now Chairs married Casper Crouch but I will not go further into the Crouches yet. So we go back to Phineas Nigellus I'sChildren: Belvina would be next and she married Herbert Burke (1881-?) but I won't go furhter into the Burkes yet either.
So continueing with the last of Phineas Nigellus I's children Cygnus Celestinus II.

As for the family of Liliana Evans... I don't want to say more about it then is already visble in the bloodtest results. (I called it identity test earlier bc that's how I called it in my notes)
Thank you for the explanation, really amazing what you did there. I can't wait to learn more about the rest of the family.I'm also looking forward to the drawing you will post.
Hey so I dont have the nerve and time to figure out a methode how posting images on ao3 works for me. I know how it technicly works, but they are just a few too many steps to make it work given my possibilities. So to counter act any future problems I will have with it, I created an Instagram account to go with it. (It will work nicely with what I planned on doing anyway, so it's not just because of your comment XD)
The account name is leeedin_ao3 have a look if you want, I posted the family tree snippet and a cover art idea so far.
