Cover by me, TR edit by MaiazLife. #1 IN KNIGHTS OF WALPURGIS 2025/01/18 ╋━ When Tom Riddle, the son of a Vampire Hunter, unexpectedly enters the masquerade realm of the heretical, he finds his destiny entangled with the Blood Witch after they try to kill each other. The Hunter and the Witchling join together in an on-and-off game of chess, playing a morbid game of their design.

Dumbledore and the Ministry will go as far as necessary to stop the ancient darkness she threatens to resurrect, and Anya Qadir will do anything for retribution.

"To some, a monster, and to others, a leader. Either way, I became god." "Did you really? Do you think God becomes trapped?" Having just earned your doctorate, you decide to work in the Azkaban Secure Facility for the Criminally Insane. There, you encounter inmate Tom Riddle, who is completely delusional, and is under the devastatingly incorrect impression he is a wizard called Lord Voldemort. From there, your life begins to spiral out of control as you learn more and more about Tom's world, until you become a part of it. Perhaps Tom hadn't been so delusional after all. In some way, you and he were the same kind of monster. - A/N: Thank you for all the love! This story gets a lot of parallels to the Joker and Harley Quinn, as well as to Shutter Island, but that was completely unintentional. This fic is actually inspired by NBC's Hannibal - particularly the relationship between Will Graham and Matthew Brown.
