[ongoing] In which agony was a constant struggle and the past kept haunting the future.
The war was meant to fix the Wizarding World, but instead it left people angry, grieving, and desperate for answers. Many witches and wizards were still hunting for those who had taken their loved ones.
Elara Hayes knew that pain. She had lost her parents and had no family left. Returning to Hogwarts for her final year felt impossible, but she had no choice but to face it.
Theodore Nott had returned too - only now he was the new Potions professor. He had been kidnapped and tortured after the war, but unlike his friends, he'd been released. No one understood why. And that was a mystery in itself.
Now Elara and Theo found themselves in the same castle again, both carrying heavy pasts and trying to survive in a world that felt unfamiliar.
They needed comfort, connection-something to make them feel alive again.
But he was a professor.
She was a student.
And no matter how strong the pull was, they both knew one thing:
It was wrong.

Nefandum-T.M.R
Nefandum-(Latin) - unspeakable evil or doom. full of bad omens; something grave is about to happen. Ariadne and Alistair Veyreult were once students of the Eldritch Institute, a remote and forsaken school buried deep within the forests of Eastern Europe. Few had ever heard its name, and those who had spoke of it only in hushed tones, as if saying it aloud would draw something listening in the dark. The castle was a blackened ruin shrouded in mist and ivy, its walls breathing with old magic. Shadows crept too close to the students there, and creatures of the night roamed the halls as if they belonged. Their parents had sent them to Eldritch for one reason: it was a sanctuary for the forbidden. A place where the Ministry's gaze could not reach - where dark magic wasn't feared, but sharpened into a weapon. But darkness has a way of claiming what it touches. A string of incidents - quiet, terrible things whispered about but never spoken openly - forced their expulsion. Both Ariadne and Alistair carry the blood of Morgana Pendragon, an ancient, storm-bound lineage. The magic in their veins is old, volatile, and unyielding. It answers to no one. When their power began to slip, Ariadne's control, their parents, on their deathbeds bed turned to Albus Dumbledore, who agreed to bring them to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry - not out of kindness, but to contain what might otherwise consume her. But power like that does not go unnoticed. From the moment Ariadne set foot in the castle, Tom Marvolo Riddle felt it. Her magic radiated in the air like frost on iron - quiet, unrelenting, dangerous. And Tom does not like what he cannot control.
