Chapter 334: Fierce Confrontation
"Grin... Grindelwald?" Kingsley went rigid.
His dark face seemed to lose all remaining colour until it was impossible to make out his expression at all.
"You... are sure you did not mistake him?" one of the Aurors stammered.
The name Grindelwald had not been spoken aloud in many years. To hear it suddenly now, they all half‑believed they had misheard, or that Dudley had misidentified the man.
"I did not. And he introduced him...

Chapter 425: Snape Defects, Unspeakable Eleanor Prewett
"Severus, it seems serving under a Dark wizard does not agree with you," Dumbledore said lightly, taking in Snape’s bloodless face.
"The Dark Lord. He is coming. He is going to kill Lily," Snape said. Regret, dread, and fear churned together in his eyes.
“The prophecy…” Dumbledore understood at once. “But it did not speak of a woman; it spoke of a boy born as the seventh month dies.”
"Yes. But he bel...

"Not interested."
Dudley only paused for a heartbeat before answering bluntly.
Grindelwald clearly had not expected such a crisp refusal. For a moment, he fell silent.
"I can give you everything you desire. I could even share this world with you," he said at last.
He had laid out the greatest sincerity he was willing to offer.
Yet Dudley only shook his head.

Chapter 424: A Shaped Dream — The Saviour Star
At Riddle Manor, a young Severus Snape burst in, stumbling to his knees at Tom Riddle’s feet.
"Well, well. Our future Potions master, in such a state?" Tom said, flicking his robe out to hide the alchemical array behind him.
"Master, I heard a prophecy. From the heir of an ancient Seer family. It foretells that you will meet inevitable ruin," Snape blurted, relaying what he had overheard.
But he had fled too fast to ...

After finishing his exchange of intelligence with his future self, Tom Riddle immediately issued an order: the Prewetts were to be eradicated at all costs.
Within hours, Dark wizards across Britain were on the move, ferreting out any hint of the ancient pure-blood family’s address.
As Voldemort’s old enemies, the Order of the Phoenix heard the news just as quickly. In a house in Hogsmeade, Dumbledore...

They picked up a few scraps of outside news from the group by the fire. Some witches and wizards, kept in the dark by the media, had begun to believe the Death Eaters’ version of events and to waver in their trust in Harry. Others, stubbornly contrary, still spoke up for him.
Harry told himself he did not care, but when he heard there were voices defending him, something warm still moved in his chest.

During their wandering, the three of them began taking turns wearing the Horcrux, swapping it roughly every twelve hours. It felt like playing a twisted, slow-motion game of pass the parcel.
