LV's POV

Voldemort was going over with Jeremiah on the new laws that the Light was trying to pass to accommodate the Muggleborns instead of teaching them about the new world, when there was a knock on the office.

"Who is it?" Jeremiah asked.

"Kari Peverell."

Voldemort looked at the door at once and Jeremiah went to open it.

"Heiress Peverell, you've arrived early." The Lawyer argued. "The celebration is only to start around midday."

"Someone promised to force me to dance the whole day." Evie agreed with a straight face, a smirk at the corner of his lips and Voldemort avoided his former classmate's amused look. "I've brought this." He added offering a scroll.

Jeremiah accepted and opened it, only to frown.

"This is...?"

"Me, Ron and Hera went over what we know and wrote down everything with the most proximity dates. We don't know for certain, though. Take everything with a grain of salt."

Voldemort accepted the parchment from a confused Jeremiah, to see a massive list with lots of laws that were passed over the next two decades to accommodate Muggleborns and the dates when they happened. He could see that during the 80s was when the Dark was unable to stop the Light and the biggest laws started being passed along. Including adding Muggle Customs to Hogwarts.

"We'll warn Corban Yaxley to keep an eye on the laws." Voldemort said and Evie nodded.

Voldemort looked at the way the boy was again with Merope's dress, yet Genevieve had obviously been stitching it and making it more proper. He frowned. This was the new dress-robe that Genevieve had brought him that day? But Evie had said it was a new one...

"My Lord...?"

"Until a certain point, Evie and his group of friends know about the future." He explained towards Jeremiah, whose eyes grew. "That's why Evie knew I was Voldemort before I had even introduced myself as Tom Riddle to him."

"Oh... if you know anything that we can help with, do tell us." Jeremiah agreed towards Evie.

Evie shrugged.

"I believe that the future that I see is not set in stone. I saw Voldemort kill the Potters and Marvolo has vouched on his magic that he'll never do it, so..." the boy shrugged. "I don't want people to believe I'm a Seer. I know some things... mostly about the Muggle side. Ron and Hera are the ones who know about the Wizardry side, you'll be luckier with them."
