Heroes

Set against the backdrop of the late seventies, Heroes is a haunting, retrospective account of two young aristocrats attempting to outrun the gravity of their bloodlines. Narrated by Elora Hawthorne, the story follows her descent from a pristine pureblood socialite to a gritty urban refugee in a London tenement, alongside the equally exiled Sirius Black.

As the Wizarding World fractures under the rising shadow of Lord Voldemort, Elora and Sirius find sanctuary in the mundane squalor of a Camden record shop, attempting to live a "forgotten" life where bricks don't change shape and mistakes cannot be vanished. However, the illusion of their anonymity is shattered when they are pulled back into the Order of the Phoenix to confront a tragedy that magic cannot fix: a war of spies, the devastating sacrifice of Regulus Black, and a final betrayal at Godric's Hollow.

In the style of a dark academia tragedy, the story explores the fatal irony of trust and the long, cold winter of survival. It is a chronicle of how a band of golden boys, The Marauders, broke under the weight of their own arrogance, and how the survivors managed to stitch a family back together from the ruins, anchored by a boy with a lightning-bolt scar.
