A/N: This will be written in letter format - a letter may be set over two or three chapters, possibly more - it is slash SS/HP in case you are interested, if you dont like that kind of thing, dont read on.

I am not profiting from this, and I do not own Harry Potter - or anything associated with such - any characters you do not recognise remain MY property, any resemblance to persons living or dead is entirely conicidence. You may not steal my work, characters or anything else, if you try, the great white chipmunk will smite you with his mighty paw.

Please R&R

Its funny, isnt it, how the most insignificant events can change the course of history, how the tiniest gesture can change the way you view the world, and the people in it.

I have always believed myself to be a rational man, seldom blinded by my past, more or less fair, when it came to the more important things in life, even if my students would strongly disagree for the most part.

It was only recently that I descovered just how wrong I was, about both myself, and certain other people - especially one Harry Potter.

I suppose I should tell you what is going on, though, I doubt you are completely oblivious to this - as you seem to know exactly what goes on in this castle at all times.

I will start at the beginning, as I believe, as with all stories, it is the best place to start.

Unsurprisingly, it is this remarkably unremarkable boy that is the cause of my enlightenment. Harry Potter - The Boy Who Lived.
