Ledger of Ashes

After the war, Hermione Granger is invited to build the Remembrance Registry ; a national archive meant to hold witness, history, and justice. It sounds like order on paper. In practice it becomes a battleground: between privacy and exposure, between mercy and prosecution, and between two men who ask very different things of her.

As committees argue and memories surface, an intimate, slow-burning triangle forms. Bureaucracy collides with desire; ethics tangle with longing. Hermione must protect history and decide which truths are hers to keep.

A post-war romance of policy, domestic salvage, and the small, accumulative moments that remap a life.
