It has been eight years since Draco Malfoy had last seen the Sun. 
    
    On May 2 1998, the Dark Lord defeated Harry Potter in the battle of Hogwarts, sending the whole world into an infinite eclipse. Harry Potter and the rest of his supporters were forced to go into hiding and the Order retreated underground, with limited movements. 
        
    And eight years and six months later, Draco Malfoy finds himself falling into the depths of despair as he turns to alcohol to keep himself afloat. Drowning in his memories, Draco has no respite from the nightmares as he sees the faces of the dead before him, and hears the cries of the fallen. 
        
    With the final battle approaching, and the Order stronger than ever, the War at its peak; can Draco Malfoy find redemption, or is he doomed to live in this cruel and dark world with his regrets, without forgiveness and love, forever?
