An Irish witch languishes in her family home, confined by her father and by circumstances. What will it take to get her to leave? The chance to return to Hogwarts or the opportunity to fight Voldemort? Or perhaps it will be Severus Snape, a man she didn't think she would meet again. This is written pre-HBP and is canon compliant to OoTP. This was up on the site previously, but is undergoing rigorous editing and so I am re-posting it from the beginning.

A gory tale, a transformation and a rejection leave Maeve confused and weary. There is a little graphic imagery at the very start of this chapter that some younger readers may find a little disturbing.

A fancy dress party causes a few smiles, yet the aftermath is anything but funny.

There's a reunion of sorts, and Dumbledore receives some news.
