In the book it was just a day… unsure about the movies, but I did reread book 4 before starting this fanfic, and I made sure to keep the same original dates for for all triwizard tournament events; First, second and third tasks. Yule ball, All the various announcements, etc.

In the book, JK mentions Fleur is 1/4 Veela, with her mom being half. Wiki also confirms this. But I agree it doesn’t really make sense with veelas being a female only race… I did provide my own theory as to what could be explanation as to how it could be possible, in an authors note somewhere, but ya I think it’s just an inconsistency JK has in her world

That’s actually a great idea for that storyline tbh. I already have something that works with my conspiracy, but this is such a good idea that I’d use something similar if I didn’t have plans already

Yup good catch. Il edit it <3

Ya I kinda want to play with that storyline a bit tbh. Feel like there’s a lot more to explore with the engram.

It was actually very surprising to me just how many common names there are the past few generations, when I looked it up researching for this chapter.

Really good insight! And you’re on the right track with that line of thinking, without giving too much away. Well done! To drop a hint, since I’m pretty excited for this storyline to play out myself, this is only a small part of a much wider conspiracy that I’m setting up for. Do with that information what you will. 🧙‍♂️

Here’s the black family tree, for those curious. Some interesting points of note, -the previous headmaster Phinneas Nigellus had an older brother named Sirius, who died at the age of 13. Looks like he named his first born son after his deceased older brother…. Therefore Our current Sirius would be the third. -Sirius and Regulus’s parents are second cousins.

Working on it now actually. Should happen before the third task

True, but Khan is also super busy. Just studying for the NEWTs when he hasn’t taken any classes for them (OWLs would’ve been easier since he actually had taken fifth year classes before his coma), would take up a lot of time, not to mention teaching. Truthfully though, I’m going to have khan participating in social gatherings involving the older generation in the future, being a head of house. Honestly too, I see the slug club more as a gathering for slughorn himself, and developing a relationship with up and coming stars in the magical world, more than it was about the students getting to know each other

Truthfully, I’m writing it more like this is a trauma response for Khan, having adventured in the previous era. the current surrounding Hogwarts area is very different than in legacy. Almost everywhere you went in legacy, there were poachers and ashwinder camps. And having not gone adventuring for himself in the current era, he’s still assuming it’s probably still somewhat infested…. Why would it be any different in this era, especially when combat capabilities have dropped and the general public wouldn’t even be able to fight back against poachers, is what I imagine Khan had been stuck thinking.

The wolves are Mongrels and are actually magical beasts. Not regular canines. But I probably could’ve clarified that a bit better so my bad lol

Thanks buddy! Not to spoil anything, I do have plans to continue Poppy’s story, just after the 4th book. 👍 Also regarding Khan, yes that second task (and even the duel against Flitwick) was meant to make him realize his current shortcomings. Like yes he’s powerful, and pretty OP due to ancient magic amplifying his family magic, but at the end of the day, he’s had 1 year of experience. Even though it was jam packed with adventures, and he’s learned/master a lot, he’s still a bit lacking and needs to improve himself. Spell variety and creation being one of them. But gj picking up on that lol. Didn’t want to outright say it

Thanks! And welcome to the story! Got lots planned and I’m really excited you’re along for the journey 💚

Name?

Also, ngl super flattered I actually inspired you with this story. For real, thanks for letting me know! Feels really nice to actually inspire someone and I’m super proud that you started your own story 💚

Oh hey! And you started your own fanfic? Thats super awesome! I gotta check it out! [img=recommend]

Ya always wanted to explore what happened to it afterwards. But nobody really got into it or wrote a story for it. I’m sure the next game will, but I didn’t want to wait that long lol

That’ll be a future point of contention

I've been thinking about it a lot more lately. Especially playing my way through the expansion..... NGL i even have a rough prologue written out for fun LOL... But I Don't really know the Cyberpunk world as well as I do the Harry Potter one, so I'd Probably have to do a lot more research for that story. Maybe after I get this story rolling again I'll try my hand at it.
