Somnium Perditum - A Dream Lost

Notes

Hello Everyone!

Welcome to Somnium Perditum! This is my first work on Archive of Our Own, and I've been sitting on this idea for quite a while.

The story is told from three perspectives: Draco, Hermione, and Theo. I want to clarify that I don't plan for their perspectives to retell the same events unless explicitly indicated. If such instances occur, I will make sure they are clearly noted. While the romance arc will primarily follow Dramione, this story is about much more than their romantic connection—it's about the entire web of relationships and their implications for our three protagonists.

This will be a dark story—not in terms of external violence, but the internal battles each character wages with themselves. There will be mentions of self-harm, domestic abuse, sexual assault (not graphic), and suicide. I will include trigger warnings for each chapter, so reader discretion is strongly advised.

This is a work in progress. I anticipate around 20 chapters and plan to post weekly (on Mondays), though my university schedule may occasionally affect this timeline.

Finally, I would love to hear your thoughts, ideas, predictions, or even conspiracy theories in the comments. Constructive criticism is always welcome!

Enough babbling—let's dive right in.
