Determined to be the stepped on no longer, Harry - now Hadrian Peverell - laces up his dragonhide boots to trek the long climb to the top.
    The shadow he casts as he ventures toward the sun is one that no-one could have seen coming.

    Summary

    Not wanting to think on it too much, Stiles took a step forward and passed his hand between the bars, moving the bleeding side closer to Derek’s mouth.

    “Not too close, he bites.”

    Stiles snatched his hand away just as Derek had been about to lick at it. The snarl he got in response was not comforting.

    “He what?” Stiles asked nervously, turning to Deaton.

    The man looked a little amused. “Don’t worry, only if he doesn’t like you.”

    “Well, he probably hates me, now!” Stiles insisted, turning back to Derek.

    He looked extremely displeased.

    Summary

    Creating horcruxes is a tricky business.

    So… what happens when it gets screwed up? What if the soul shard was left unprotected or—even worse—attached to another soul? Well, it wouldn’t be good for the horcrux, that’s for sure. And god only knows what it’d do to the other soul…

    Harry Potter grows up in an abusive home while also dealing with a Shadowy Voice in his mind. What does that sort of thing do to a child? Will he ignore his Other Voice and join forces with his long-lost twin brother, the so-called ‘Boy-Who-Lived,’ as heirs apparent to the Light? Or will he succumb to the voice in his head, and begin following the path of Darkness?

    Or maybe he’ll choose something different. Can Harry maintain his fundamental goodness while traveling a journey full of theft, Unforgivables, murder, and mayhem?

    Summary

    For all the advice Lauren could give, she was limited in so many ways. She couldn’t always protect Andy, try as she might. She had to let him fight his own battles.
    After all, fighting in a war was a different beast than hiding from one.

    ⧝⧝⧝⧝⧝

    As Lauren and Andy grapple with their growing power and hunt for clues about mastering Fenris, their ancestors' words echo in their minds. Help arises from unexpected places as they face off with enemies, new and old, and stumble across remnants of the past, but one can only hope it arrives before their power surpasses their limits.
