England, 1536. Queen Anne Boleyn has lost her final hope of giving Henry VIII a male heir. Whispers of her downfall echo through the cold stone halls of Whitehall, while the king's gaze turns once more to foreign alliances-and new possibilities.

Far away, in the heart of London's Ottoman embassy, Ambassador Mehmed Çelebi observes England's turmoil with calculated interest. Then, a daring idea is born: what if East and West could be joined not by war or trade-but by marriage?

He writes to Constantinople with a proposal no Christian monarch would dare suggest: a union between King Henry VIII and Gülbahar Sultan, the radiant and learned daughter of Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent and Hürrem Sultan.

In the shadow of two great empires, Gülbahar must decide whether she is willing to leave the world she knows behind-to step into a court of intrigue, religious tension, and a king known for turning love into execution.

A rose from the East. A crown stained by ambition. A path that may change history itself.

Harry Potter: is harry's mom wanda? by YoDarki
131 parts Ongoing
In the final moment before her destruction, Wanda Maximoff " the Scarlet Witch " is pulled into a void beyond time or form. Lost in the abyss of her guilt, a mysterious light touches her... and brings her back. Not to her world, but to another. One where magic is different. Where redemption might take shape: the world of Harry Potter. When a luminous figure " a doe " shows her the memories of a boy abandoned and mistreated by his relatives, Wanda understands her new purpose: to protect Lily Potter's son. Though she doesn't know why she was chosen, she accepts the deal. In exchange for a chance at redemption, she will care for little Harry. But Wanda is no ordinary witch. And this world is not ready for her. From the very first moment on Privet Drive, the Dursleys will feel that something has changed. With power, resolve, and growing compassion, Wanda will face a new destiny. Because this time... no one will touch the boy without facing her. After all, who better to protect the Boy Who Lived... than the Scarlet Witch herself? Author's Disclaimer: This story is loosely inspired by the initial premise of Strange Potter, a work I greatly admire and that served as a creative spark for developing this project. Although the plot, character development, and events are entirely original and distinct, I believe it's only fair to acknowledge that initial influence. Likewise, this is a non-profit fanfic that blends elements from the Marvel and Harry Potter universes, whose rights belong to their respective creators and owners (Marvel/Disney and J.K. Rowling). This work is made with respect and with the intention of paying tribute to these worlds that so many of us have enjoyed.
