Instinct

The year was 1975.

For five years the First Wizarding War has raged with no end in sight. A young woman fears for the fate of herself. She fears for those around her as the sanctuary that Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry provides is soon to end, pending graduation.
Clinging desperately to the fleeting adolescent distractions that friends- old and new- provide, Diana Cassiopeia Moore struggles with the ever growing weight of hate, despair and desperate need for revenge on her shoulders.
Can she accept the love that those who care for her try to inspire in her? Or will she succumb to her own broken spirit, to her family's dark ambitions, and betray the only people fighting for her in this cruel, sinister new world?
