After the war, Harry Potter survives-but he doesn't recover. Haunted by the ghosts of everyone he couldn't save, drowning in survivor's guilt, and rejected by a world eager to move on, he begins to descend into a silent and isolating madness. At first, the voice in his head feels like his own thoughts turned cruel, but it slowly grows louder, more distinct... more seductive.
This one-shot chronicles Harry's psychological deterioration as the lingering remnants of Lord Voldemort take root in his mind. The voice becomes his only solace, distorting his memories, rewriting his pain, until it offers him one final, dark refuge. In a story of manipulation, trauma, and surrender, Harry finds peace not in healing-but in complete surrender to the darkness that once tried to destroy him.
This is not a love story. This is a tragedy disguised as comfort. This is where Harry stops being the Boy Who Lived.
