A Healer In Training

In the candlelit halls of 1919 Hogwarts, shadows stretch long and memories linger.
A year ago, a duel in a high corridor ended in scandal, grief, and the snapping of a wand. The Headmaster's decree was swift: no more dueling, under pain of expulsion.

Now, Ambros Fawley-hot-blooded Gryffindor, black sheep of a proud pure-blood line-finds himself marked by the past and perilously close to repeating it. One misstep, one provocation, and he is hauled before his Head of House. But instead of expulsion, he is given a different sentence: a month of service in the Hospital Wing under the stern and exacting Madam Bones.

In a school still bristling with old rivalries and whispered rumours, tending the wounded is the last thing Ambros expected to be good at. Yet strange cases are beginning to arrive-students drained of magic, spells fizzling in their hands-and each one draws him closer to the truth behind last year's tragedy... and to a choice that could cost far more than House points.
