(Enchanting Melodies) Chapter 469: A Glimpse Forward

Chapter 469: A Glimpse Forward

15 January 2001, Hogwarts

Sarah Shafiq ran from the Gryffindor boys chasing her. They hadn’t liked the fact that she’d gotten praised in Professor Flitwick’s class. When she’d come to Hogwarts, she never expected it to feel so lonely. She was actually glad to have been sorted into Hufflepuff, hoping to make some friends, but while they were all nice, Sarah didn’t exactly like her classmates all that much. They just didn’t...

(Arcane Tinker) Chapter 3: Heart of Stone

Chapter 3: Heart of Stone

4 June 1991, London, England

As foreign, yet strangely familiar, memories invaded his mind, and his body felt even more drained and tired than it ever was in his life, everything slowly turned to blissful darkness.

When Dean’s woke up, he was in a small bedroom, notably not his own, yet it seemed familiar for some reason. The world itself was wrong, hazy. As he walked around, all the soreness in his body was gone. There w...

Chapter 2: Artful Explosions

4 June 1991, London, England

He hadn’t seen her this happy in months, maybe even years. He would do his best to keep it that way. He would make sure nothing ruined their night. Of course, that was when the screaming started, and Dean’s world turned upside down.

The drive to the restaurant was peaceful. Dean simply enjoyed his mother’s company. They rarely spent any time together. Nurses in Britain were notoriously ...

(Arcane Tinker) Chapter 1: Mystical Induction

AN: Alright, this is the first chapter of my new story, called Arcane Tinker (not sure about the name, and if you don’t like it, I don’t mind changing it). It’s a Harry Potter SI fanfic, and I'm uploading the first three chapters today. Don’t worry, Enchanting Melodies still isn’t over, and there will be a new chapter tomorrow. I’m going to do a poll in a few days about what to do next, and this is to give you a taste of this story and to get your opinion on it. 2025-05-10 14:00:11 +0000 UTC View Post

(Enchanting Melodies) Chapter 468: A Legacy Reborn

Chapter 468: A Legacy Reborn

29 June 1995, Athens, Greece

Perseus Marinakis sat alone on the balcony, high atop the white-stoned spire of his father’s safehouse, watching as the first rays of dawn spilt over the distant hills and bathed the city of Athens in gold. On the other side, the sea stretched endlessly, dark blue waves shimmering into silver as the sun slowly climbed. The air was still cool, the city quiet, save for the distant cries of gulls and the gen...

(Enchanting Melodies) Chapter 467: Fanning the Flames

Chapter 467: Fanning the Flames

29 June 1995, Hogwarts

Minerva McGonagall poured herself a glass of whiskey, finally glad that the school year was over. What an exhausting year it was. The attack on the Quidditch World Cup Final, the European School Tournament, the civil war between Lord Voldemort and the Lycans, and her needing to activate the wards to protect the students involved.

Everything had been one crisis after another, and she did her best trying t...

(Enchanting Melodies) Chapter 466: Of Black Deeds

Chapter 466: Of Black Deeds

22 June 1995, Athens, Greece

Arcturus Black hadn’t wanted to be here, not really, in this safehouse in Greece. It was a nice sentiment on Harry’s part, a way to keep him safe from any reprisal from Dumbledore or Grindelwald. It was also a bit patronising to leave him with the non-combatant families while the boy and even his girlfriend stood there to fight. He was a war veteran for Merlin’s sake. Sure, he knew that he was far past...

Chapter 465: Seeing the Strings

22 June 1995, Athens, Greece

He knew exactly what this was: a statement, a proof of power. The portal flared slightly, obviously someone stepping through it. Harry conjured his scythe, ready to confront an attacker, until a familiar voice stopped him cold, “There’s no need to panic. I simply believe that it was time for us to have a little conversation.”

Harry stared at the man before him, who had a face mirrori...

Chapter 464: A New Sunrise

22 June 1995, Athens, Greece

Now, that would be an extremely awkward conversation with her family, one that she was definitely not looking forward to having. No, she would worry about that later. Today, she would celebrate.

Harry woke up with a hellish migraine, hearing yells and screams on the other side of the door. It took him a few minutes to gather his thoughts, as he remembered what happened to previous day. A part o...

(Enchanting Melodies) Chapter 463: Verdant Morning

Chapter 463: Verdant Morning

21 June 1995, Athens, Greece

Daphne Greengrass couldn’t help but feel nervous. No one could blame her. Her boyfriend was probably fighting the two Champions of Light and Dark by himself, and a part of her wanted to wait for him to come back to her, if only so that she could hex him for making her feel like a mess.

She had done her part and done it well. She survived the battle against Grindelwald’s forces, enough for her to a...

(Enchanting Melodies) Chapter 462: Fading Light

Chapter 462: Fading Light

21 June 1995, Stonehenge

Yet, the boy’s eyes gleamed, ready in a fighting stance, “No Light. No prophecy. Just you and me. One final duel. Fitting, isn’t it?” He spread his arms, mockingly. “You created me. And today, you will die at the hands of your greatest mistake.”

Harry stared at the raging form of Albus Dumbledore, completely devoid of purpose and precision, and relished in the fact that he had unmade the...

(Enchanting Melodies) Chapter 461: The Unveiled Core

Chapter 461: The Unveiled Core

21 June 1995, Stonehenge

Albus Dumbledore stared at Harry Potter, unable to comprehend just where everything had gone wrong. This wasn’t supposed to happen, and yet the undeniable truth lay in the gigantic golden tree glowing with such warmth and prosperity that he had no idea what to do or say. It was a living testament that he had lost, that all his sacrifices, all the horrors, that he’d ever done for the sake of his dream, of ...

(Enchanting Melodies) Chapter 460: Seed and Thorns

Chapter 460: Of Sprouting Seeds

21 June 1995, Nurmengard

And then, his body finally faded away, the last fragment of the Dark in existence. His soul moved on, and the energy within it was released. The greatest ritual in the history of humanity was unravelled, and it started to pulse. The world held its breath for a fraction of a second, and then everything turned white.

Harry Potter had planned everything to the last detail, and yet, he had to admi...

(Enchanting Melodies) Chapter 459: Birth of a Legend

Chapter 459: Birth of a Legend

21 June 1995, Hogwarts

Cornelius Fudge watched with bated breath as the final Spanish champion was eliminated by Susan Bones. The girl was the last of Hogwarts’ competitors and was doing a pretty good job at handling herself using her weird rune magic. Cornelius was never an expert on these matters, choosing to concentrate on foreign policies and economic reforms rather than obscure forms of magic, but he didn’t doubt that it loo...

(Enchanting Melodies) Chapter 458: The Final Scene

Chapter 458: The Final Scene

21 June 1995, Nurmengard

Harry Potter simply stood there, one hand gripping the haft of the scythe as if he had always been meant to arrive in this moment, at this exact place in time, blade already buried in the heart of prophecy. Grindelwald fell to his knees, his hands trembling as he touched the weapon. It was only then that Dumbledore realised that the Dark Lord’s injuries weren’t healing.

It took a few moments ...

(Enchanting Melodies) Chapter 457: Ragnarök

Chapter 457: Ragnarök

21 June 1995, Nurmengard

“You’ve taken your last life,” the former headmaster stated, taking back his impaled spear, and wielding it, ready to attack his opponent. Shadows started to grow around Grindelwald, and he answered clearly, “No, you’ve lived your last day.”

The world stood still as both combatants stared at one another, each one waiting for the other to make a move. Albus knew, deep down, that it was alway...

(Enchanting Melodies) Chapter 456: Dreams and Principles

Chapter 456: Dreams and Principles

21 June 1995, Nurmengard

It wasn’t hard. With their common enemy dead, Grindelwald and Dumbledore, as expected, turned towards one another, each one ready to attack, and that suited Harry just fine. After all, if his enemies were ready to do his job, then why would he stop them?

Albus Dumbledore felt the world clear up slightly, as he finally realized what had happened. It had been like a fog had just been lifted...

Quick Poll: Temporary Schedule Change?

Hey everyone,

I meant to do this on Thursday but completely forgot, better late than never, right? I’ve been thinking lately that I don’t interact with you guys enough, so I figured a quick poll might help with that.

Basically, I wanted to ask if you’d be okay with me scaling down uploads from 4 chapters a week to 3, just for a short while—no more than two weeks. If I find the time or energy, I’ll try to sneak in an extra chapter to make up for it.

The schedule wo...

(Enchanting Melodies) Chapter 455: Path to Victory

Chapter 455: Path to Victory

21 June 1995, Nurmengard

It was the first true idea he had since Dumbledore arrived, beyond fighting for as long as possible while hoping for the best. Now, things were different. Harry Potter had a plan, and well, that rarely tended to bode well for his enemies.

Harry watched as the spiral of ordered destruction flew towards him, and despite the stakes of his fight, despite the danger the attack posed, he had to admit t...

(Enchanting Melodies) Chapter 454: The Grey Death

Chapter 454: The Grey Death

21 June 1995, Nurmengard

Then he saw him. White robes, unmarred. Hair gleaming like silver fire, but it was his eyes, brilliant, blinding white, that silenced everything else. Dumbledore had arrived. Harry suppressed the urge to groan. As if everything hadn’t been complicated so far.

Harry watched as Dumbledore entered the battlefield at last. He knew that it would have happened initially. Hell, he’d been prepared to ...

(Enchanting Melodies) Chapter 453: Eternally Bright

Chapter 453: Eternally Bright

21 June 1995, Unknown Place

And just like that, with a heavy heart, Albus committed the greatest act of sacrilege in his life and stabbed Excalibur into the boulder. The Light screamed and the world itself turned white.

Albus Dumbledore groaned as he opened his eyes, wondering where he was, and what had happened. He had been fighting the Potter boy with the aim of making sure that the final prophecy would break, and tha...

(Enchanting Melodies) Chapter 452: Fate and Time

Chapter 452: Fate and Time

21 June 1995, Nurmengard

Harry’s previous scythe appeared back in his hand, but in the place of his blade was a swirling edge of fractal light, as if reality itself had been bent, layered, and folded into a weapon. He raised his weapon against Grindelwald and spoke up, his voice echoing over what remained of the battlefield, “You’re not the only one who can break the rules of the game, Grindelwald.”

The Dark Lord s...

(Enchanting Melodies) Chapter 451: Fimbulwinter

Chapter 451: Fimbulwinter

21 June 1995, Nurmengard

As if they were waiting for his words, a familiar man walked out of the shadows, Vlad. Harry had made sure that the vampire would remain far away when Daphne’s ritual took place, to avoid being affected as well. Similarly, Alexander Marinakis appeared in a burst of Lightning, holding a trident in his hand, ready to attack as well. Surprisingly, Grindelwald grinned, “This is going to be fun!”

T...

Chapter 450: Traps and Games

21 June 1995, Nurmengard

Slowly but surely, the corpse died and started to release a golden glow. He barely had time to conjure a shield before the fortress started to shake, and everything turned white.

When the Light faded from his eyes, and he could finally see once more, Harry let out a grin as the seemingly impregnable fortress of Nurmengard started to crack and fall away. There were no traces of the Elder Vampires,...

(Enchanting Melodies) Chapter 449: Blood and Grass

Chapter 449: Blood and Grass

21 June 1995, Nurmengard

Daphne Greengrass didn’t think that war would be like this. To be perfectly honest, she fully expected Harry to immediately deny her involvement in the war, and that she’d pressure him into joining. She never expected that he’d just go along with it, even if it was obvious that it was through great reluctance. He hated it with a passion, and she could see the guilt on his face during their time together b...

(Enchanting Melodies) Chapter 448: A Game of Shadows

Chapter 448: A Game of Shadows

21 June 1995, Hogwarts

Gellert Grindelwald knew that his victory was all but certain. After all, he had spent decades planning it, fine-tuning every small detail to ensure his inevitable victory. He had started so long ago, from the moment he built his treasured fortress, he had been sure. Every single stone was reinforced so much so that they were almost indestructible. Every single one was filled with small runes, a part of a whole...

(Enchanting Melodies) Chapter 447: Death and Darkness

Chapter 447: Death and Darkness

21 June 1995, Hogwarts

Marinakis’ grin turned bloodthirsty, and with a crack of lightning, he was gone. Harry exhaled, turning toward the waiting storm. Grindelwald had called. And now, Harry would answer.

Harry walked with purpose as he made his way back to the stands, ready for what awaited him. He couldn’t help but feel slightly victorious. He had, as far as he was concerned, just dealt a gigantic blow to the Light and ...

(Enchanting Melodies) Chapter 446: Wolves and Sheep

Chapter 446: Wolves and Sheep

21 June 1995, Nurmengard

Marinakis’ grin turned bloodthirsty, and with a crack of lightning, he was gone. Harry exhaled, turning toward the waiting storm. Grindelwald had called. And now, Harry would answer.

Remus Lupin had never been a good man. Not in the way people thought good men should be.
He had killed. More than he could count. Innocent, guilty—it made no difference in war.
He had done it for a dream. ...

Chapter 445: Covered Bases

21 June 1995, Hogwarts

And just like that, with a heavy heart, Albus committed the greatest act of sacrilege in his life and stabbed Excalibur into the boulder. The Light screamed and the world itself turned white.

Harry opened his eyes, still in shock at what he had witnessed. His ears were still ringing by the scream he heard when it happened. There was still the normal ‘wrongness’ when destroying a prophecy but ther...

(Enchanting Melodies) Chapter 444: Stealing Destiny

Chapter 444: Stealing Destiny

21 June 1995, Hogwarts

Albus Dumbledore had to admit – in the privacy of his mind, of course – that Harry Potter was impressively persistent. The boy had to have known that he wouldn’t win, not when he didn’t have the element of surprise on his side. Even without the Elder Wand, the former headmaster was the superior mage in every single way.

The plan was relatively simple. He would obscure the location of the ritual as ...
