"The room was more of a Formality, since we had our Trunks. However we both thought it would be best that we didn't go back home" Dahlia explained, Harry nodded in agreement.

"Alright, 3 letters one from each of our parents. These are supposed to be read before we start anything else" Harry said, the twins were in Harry's trunk, sitting on his couch as they stared at the letters from parents they should have been with since the beginning. "Read papa's first, Maybe it'll explain how they met" Dahlia said, handing the letter to Harry, Regulus elegant handwriting catching the light. "Are you Ready?" Harry asked softly, knowing this would be hard on them, "as I'll ever be" dahlia said softly.

Dear My Darling Flower and Fawn

If you are reading this letter... Then We didn't survive the war as we hoped, I am so sorry we didn't get to be with you longer. Your both just 6 months now and I already can't imagine a life where we're not there to see you grow, but lily, always the prepared wants us to write these letters as a just in case. I hope to Merlin you never have to read this. I'm rambling, Hi, I'm your Papa, Regulus. You should be with your uncle Sirius or Your Aunt Andromeda, However if not then You Likely won't know the history of my part of your heritage, worse yet... It wasn't me who actives your mother's planning. I will leave her to explain that.

I am The second born son in a Dark Pure blood Family, Your uncle Sirius is My Elder Brother and Your Aunt Andromeda is My Cousin. In case you aren't with them, A Pure blood is a Magical person who has Magical parents and Grandparents. Your mother says it's similar to muggle Royalty if that helps. My Family was well known and similar to Muggle Racists, they believed Pure bloods were Superior and definitely would not have approved of your mother. Your uncle Sirius and I didn't share these beliefs however your uncle was more Outspoken about it then I was. Hopefully you already know of Voldemort, if not he would be compared to Muggle Hitler and muggleborns would be the Jews. When I was 18, My Parents forced me to take the Dark mark, Voldemort's mark. I learned later on that the mark is more than a bind, it is a Parasite, It corrupts the bearer's mind. Twisting and infecting it until only Evil is left behind. I also discovered that he sought Dark Evil Magic and Gained immortality, I knew he would not be defeated until this was fixed, as such I went on a Suicide mission after one of them.

I knew I might not survive  but seeing it destroyed was more important. However before I died, My House Elf, Kreacher (if you are not with either mentioned people, do check on him. Dahlia simply call his name) brought me to your Mum and Dad's house, Later I discovered it was because I'm your father's destined (he will explain). They were able to heal me in time and your darling mother gave me the Lecturing of my life, honestly I still feel my ears ring slightly when I think about it. I stayed with them, hiding as people believed I was dead and it helped. Over time I fell in love with them, We married in secret with Dumbledore, McGonagall and Hagrid as Witnesses. When you both were born... You stole my heart, you were so precious my little ones, I knew the moment I held you, I would do anything to keep you both safe even if it cost me everything. I may not have had good role models but I will try my hardest to take care of you both, I solemnly swear to always love you my flower and fawn

Love, papa

Those with the Mark froze slightly, glancing down at their arms with fear, Their hearts hammering "Anyone Marked, the wards around this Hall are currently voiding the effects" She said, not looking at anyone so they weren't called out. The rest of the hall felt despair, knowing he couldn't be killed, Dumbledore shared a look with Alastor, their fears confirmed.
