[COMPLETED] Some witches are born to cast spells. She was forged to survive them. When fifth-year Elaine Aryndell arrives at Hogwarts, she carries more than scars - she carries ancient magic she was never meant to wield. Trained to fight without spells and haunted by her past, Elaine is thrust into a growing war against goblins, poachers, and power long buried beneath the castle. As her bond with Sebastian Sallow deepens, so does the danger, within and without. With Hogwarts at risk and her soul unraveling, Elaine must decide: will she be the weapon everyone fears, or the witch who breaks the cycle? ༓☾༓༒༓☽༓ This is my take on the Hogwarts Legacy story, with lots of classroom banter and bonding between the students. Since we've all played the game and know what happens during the trials, the overall story will be shortened, merged, or even skipped. The focus here is more on character interactions and later what happens after the goblin attack. If you're coming from The Heart of The Well and don't want to go through everything I'd suggest you start with the Chapter 37: It Feels Like Dying (this is where the split happens)

[COMPLETED] After the fall of Hogwarts, Ranrok's victory reshaped the world. Wizards and witches were branded like cattle, their magic bound to servitude and turned into "wells" - living vessels, drained and used by their human captors. Sebastian Sallow has known nothing but chains and ownership since the war's end. Bought. Broken. Discarded. Until the day a woman with storm-gray eyes claims him and everything begins to change. As secrets unravel and sparks ignite, survival becomes something far more dangerous. Because the woman who holds his leash may also hold the key to everything they've both lost. ༓☾༓༒༓☽༓ Instituted by the goblin-human coalition as a means of maintaining post-war order, the Branding Procedure replaced personal autonomy with structured containment. Wells - formerly wizards and witches - were marked with arcane sigils that both sealed their magic and allowed for controlled access by authorized humans. "A well that survives is more useful than one that breaks. Control does not require brutality. It requires comprehension." - General Aryndell
