"Harry dear have a seat."Helga said.
"Wha?Lady Hufflepuff?"Harry asked.
"Yes dear we'd like a word."Rowena replied.
"Okay."Harry said.
"First let me say I must thank you for the gentle hand you and young Luna took with my daughter."Rowena replied.
"It was my first conversation with her I've only ever spoken with Nearly Headless Nick and of course Peeves."Harry said.
"Even so I'm glad she had people who treat her well."Rowena replied.
"Now on to the subject at know you are not well versed in the workings of wizarding we are going to teach you important things you need to know."Merlin said.
"Like what?"Harry asked.
"During times of war it wasn't uncommon for young couples to elope or get married because they wanted to tie themselves together should war cause them to be parted.
"Also for example families who if the parents die and there is only one surviving heir keeping their house alive the parents would perform a soulmate test and then make a marriage contract for sole heirs to be tied to an Ancient bloodline."Merlin said.
"The Potters can trace their family all the way back to us."Godric replied.
"You know that the original Order Of The Phoenix were made up of classmates co-workers and friends.
"A few aurors and some from the International Confederation Of Wizards.
and out of that group the Potters, Longbottoms,Weasley's,Bones, Patils,and Delacours were parent's at the time.
"So it was natural to have them bring their infants and young children along."Helga said.
"Especially when the bonds started to once your parents and the Longbottoms went into hiding for your protection the bonds dimmed and you were to young to remember any of it."Rowena said.
"When you started attending Hogwarts your bonds new bonds formed when you saved Hermione's life.
"When you saved Ginny's life stopped Luna from being bullied went out of your way to give the Patil twins a nice time at the dance Ron ruined.
"When you started the DA inspite of the trouble you'd face allowing anyone who really wanted to Daphne Tracy and Su Li.
"And your reawakened bond with Susan Bones because you both don't like the fame that comes with the losses you suffered."Salazar replied.
"I don't want to take their choices away that's not fair to them."Harry said.
"Harry, that's not taking their choice they all have a willing bond with you."Rowena replied.
"Come we want to show you more."Helga said.
"Like what?"Harry asked.
Suddenly on the screen appeared what would happen to the wizarding world would be if Voldemort won.
More trials for muggle borns and half bloods and persecution for blood traitors.
Harry looked on in horror at the screen he could no longer think of this as a war or battle but an apocalypse of the wizarding world.
That would spill out into the muggle and magical communities all over the world.
"No this can't happen I won't allow this."Harry raged.
"Harry there is something more you have that he doesn't ."Helga said.
"What's that?"Harry asked.
"A collection of muggle artillery the potter men have helped muggle military for century's and in doing so afforded you weapons that would scare the living hell out of all of the Death eaters and Voldemort."Godric said.
"If Dad could have used those why didn't he?"Harry asked.
"Your grandfather never got the chance to tell him when he caught the Dragonpox it effected his brain like the muggle dementia disease.
"He would have episodes of forgetfulness."Merlin replied.
"They were only meant to be used if something like this happened."Helga said.
"Then tell me how do I find the weapons?"Harry asked.
"You need the Founders map."Godric replied.
"Let us see your map and we'll show you."Merlin said.
Suddenly both maps begin to glow and move.
"Now call upon the Potter Armory."Salazar instructed.
Harry did as told and to his utter surprise a large list of muggle weapons that update over the years.
"Wow,this would definitely surprise them."Harry exclaimed.
"Yes it wouldn't hurt to teach the DA and Order how to use these as well."King Arthur replied.
"Even Dobby and Winky could benefit from this."Merlin said.
"There's a lot of things I need to do."Harry replied.
"True,and you will succeed."Rowena said.
"How So?"Harry asked.
"Because you will have the methods of Muggle and Magical means on your side."Helga replied.
"Point taken ma'am."Harry said.
"Right now what's important is to prepare you for this massive undertaking."Godric replied.
"True."Rowena said.
"We also must perform the inheritance rite."Merlin replied.
"Harry when you return to the land of the living, your knowledge will have grown substantially as well as your magical ability."Godric said.
"What do you mean?"Harry asked.
"We mean your going to have knowledge that goes back century's."Rowena replied.
"That would be something I think Hermione might like."Harry said.
"It would be useful for you all."Godric replied.
"Okay."Harry said.
"The good news is there would be no need of people like Fudge Umbridge or Scrimmager."Salazar replied.
"Yes,I hated having them in power it was disgusting."Harry said.
"Well once everything is changed they will never know what the taste of power feels like."Rowena replied.
"So much as gone wrong the treaties with the other races we made were never intended to be disregarded as they were."Merlin said.
"But over the century's everything we made possible was deconstructed so that thing's like this could be put in place."Godric replied.
"Then might I make a suggestion?"Harry asked.
"Please do."Helga replied.
"You all have portraits at Hogwarts why not let the people know how displeased you are with the way things have been run."Harry said.
Arthur Merlin Godric and Salazar burst into a fit of laughter picturing the shock of seeing an Angry Merlin King Arthur and Founders ready to rip them a new one.
"We can do better, we can return with you and surprise old Voldeshorts."Arthur replied.
"That will definitely prove a shock."Harry said.
"I would very much love to see him punished for the manipulation he pulled on my daughter."Rowena replied
"I made a promise to her I intend to keep."Harry said.
"Harry,one with such strong will and honor is very rare in deed."Helga replied.
"All I know is, she's hurting and trusts only Luna because Luna goes out of her way to be nice to her I had to convince her I wasn't like Tom Riddle and wasn't trying to fool her."Harry said.
"That too is my doing I was very tough with her."Rowena replied.
"Ma'am there is no rule book on parenthood you just do the best you can."Harry said.
"You're a sweet young man Harry."Rowena replied.
"Thank you ma'am."Harry said.
"Your most welcome."Rowena replied.
"You hold on to the most important thing Harry,"Helga said.
"What's that?"Harry asked.
"Your truth Harry, everything that makes you who you are."Helga replied.
"That I can do without question."Harry said.
"We know you can Harry."King Arthur replied.
"There is much that is going to be in your power to do."Helga said.
"I realise that and I know people like the Malfoy's may present a problem of it."Harry replied.
"Harry what you must understand is that a ruler is far more powerful than a minister could ever dream of being.
"Cornelius Fudge was taking bribes which a ruler who is about what's the best course of action for his people would never do."Rowena said.
"He and Deloris Umbridge did me no favors."Harry replied.
"The good news is you won't have to figure this out on your own you will be able to seek the advice of the people who's life you save."Godric said.
"I suppose that helps."Harry replied.
"It will because your the one who will fix this mess."Merlin said.
"I know,"Harry replied.
"Then don't doubt yourself you've made it this far."King Arthur said.
"It's not so much doubt as it is I wish I knew why it has to be me."Harry replied.
"Sometimes Harry people are placed in situations they have no fault in but have to deal with."Merlin said.
"Which you learned without ever having meant to."Helga replied.
"Yes that's true."Harry said.
"Take Remus for example do you think Greyback would have ever gotten to Remus if his father had either given in to Greyback or fought him?"Godric asked.
"I don't know."Harry replied.
"That's fine my point in asking you that was to drive home choice and circumstance."Godric said.
"I believe I understand sir."Harry replied.
"Another example of that could be the relationship between Severus's parents and that of your Aunt and mother."Rowena replied.
"How so?"Harry asked.
"Here allow us to show you."Merlin replied.
The screen from before showed a split screen effect on one side you see a young Petunia and Lily Evans at different moments in their relationship.
On the other you see Tobias and Eileen Snape and little Severus Snape and different moments.
"Merlin's Beard!"Harry exclaimed.
"Now imagine if we didn't have the statuet of secrecy anyone who wronged us would be paying dearly."Salazar said.
"Yes, clearly muggle hunting would be as commonplace as quidditch."Harry replied.
"That's true which would be an unfortunate state of affairs if things do not change."Merlin said.
"Come now young Harry there is still much to do."King Arthur replied.
"Our society has been corrupted so much so it's hard for light wizards to succeed in our world."Merlin said.
"Yes, that's something the muggle and Wizarding world have in common."Harry replied.
"That is why your the cure Harry."Rowena said.
"Harry, we know what has been lain at your feet isn't fair or easy and the people of the wizarding world don't make things easy when one moment your classed as a hero and the next you are an attention seeking brat who wants to bath in the accolades of his loses."Godric replied.
"When you are placed in the position of scapegoat you get used to it."Harry said.
"That's the rub Harry you should never be used to it."Godric replied.
"What do you mean sir?"Harry asked.
"Harry dear,what Godric means is that just because it is convenient to blame you for thing's going wrong at your Aunt and Uncles house or for Fudge and Umbridge to make you the scapegoat for everything that went bad in the wizarding world thus far is not acceptable."Rowena replied.
"And you shouldn't be okay with being treated as such."Helga said.
"Oh, I'm anything but okay with it I wake up everyday especially while going on this Horcrux hunt hating that people I knew are dead and dying or in danger because a prophecy put a target on mine and my parents back."Harry replied.
"The misguided thinking of the wizarding world elite put the target on your backs more so than that of the prophecy."Merlin said.
"The wizarding world proved they can be easily manipulated and that allowed for them to be easily swayed."Rowena replied.
"She's right think of Grendalwald and Voldemort as if they were sheep herders leading the mindless in any direction the sheepherder believes is best."Merlin said.
"Wait,when I go back won't that be exactly what I'm doing trying to get the wizarding world the way I believe it should be."Harry replied.
"No and I'll tell you why,you see Harry they thought like Hitler or Stalin and muggles known as the KKK and the white supremacist groups believing that one race was better than the others.
"You believe in educating the ignorant and forward progressing the wizarding world."Rowena said.
"Hermione does more than I ever could."Harry replied.
"That's true but she still has a lot to learn about the way different races function in the wizarding world."Helga said.
"Yes, that's true."Harry replied.
As Harry took in everything that Merlin King Arthur and the founders told him the survivors of Hogwarts took in all the damage and tended to the wounded but Hermione Ginny and the other woman of Dumbledore's army were waiting for Harry's return when a peaceful feeling overtook them.
"What in the world was that?"Harry asked.
"That was Hogwarts castle trying to settle the nerves of those that are concerned about you Harry."King Arthur said.
"How is that possible for me to feel it?"Harry asked.
"Because of your connection to us your soulmates and the connection to Hogwarts the moment we began speaking to you here is the moment you were recognized as our heir."Merlin replied.
"And in that same vein so too are your soulmates."Rowena said.
"When you return only you and your soulmates will feel the change the others will become aware of it as the muggles say when the dust settles."Godric replied.
"They will most likely want my head on a spike."Harry said.
"No they won't because when you return your soulmates will remember playing at your house in Godric's Hollow and will understand at least in part why fate made you all soulmates."Helga replied.
"Will I need to explain all this to them?"Harry asked.
"No,they will know all once you return to finish this."Salazar said.
"Well at least that saves me from having to tell them."Harry replied.
"Not to worry young Harry everything in that regard will fall into place."Merlin said.
"Let us continue our lesson shall we?"Rowena asked.
"Yes, please continue."Harry replied.
"Harry what you don't know about your family is the fact they were not just mere light sided witches and wizards they were family is the reason the wizarding world has Skelegrow and the Sleekeazy tonic.
"And your father and his friends making the Mauraders those things prove their ingenuity."Merlin said.
"And you inherited knows what kinds of things your parents could have come up with together if they'd had half the chance.
"Even with Fabian and Gideon to help they could have come up with things that could have done wonders for aurors."Godric replied.
As Harry took all this in his mind couldn't grasp everything all at once he was overwhelmed yet knowing all this filled him with mixed emotions.
"What troubles you so Harry?"Merlin asked.
"I still don't like the wizarding world's hopes falling on me to save them where were they when my parents needed help? where were they when Neville's parents were driven mad."Harry replied.
"You are well within your rights to be angered by these unfortunate circumstances but in the same token they made you the young man that stands before us now."Merlin said.
"Yes I know but it doesn't make it any less frustrating."Harry replied.
"Harry everything will be fine you have us and your soulmates you will not face this alone."Godric said.
"Come there is still more we must tell you."Rowena replied.
Harry and the others sat in a room that looked like the room of requirements idea of a sitting room.
"When you return everything will be different for you Harry yes you must still face Voldemort and end his reign of terror and those of the death eaters for too long this has gone unchecked and you will be able to fix things the way we intended."Helga said.
"By revitalizing the wizarding world making it as it should have been when the muggle world progressed."Rowena replied.
"Harry, once you return you and your soulmates will feel a powerful energy burst that will be Hogwarts and our energies connecting to yours just as Hogwarts connects to everyone that was given headmaster or headmistress title."Helga said.
"And you will still hold the mantle of master of death you besides that of your ancestor are the only one to wield that responsibility maturely."Merlin replied.
"How so?"Harry asked.
"Because Harry it was meant for you."Rowena replied.
"I don't understand how."Harry said.
"Think back to the tale of the three was more clever than his brothers that was something that allowed him to survive death as long as he did. but it was also a trait both your parents had in great measure."Merlin replied.
"Being cleaver didn't save them in the end."Harry said.
"Hey, that is about to change so what happened before this point won't matter after Voldemort is gone Molly will have her brothers back Fred and George will live long happy lives Andromeda won't lose her husband and daughter."Godric replied.
"Yes if I can stop the hurt and suffering that will be worth it."Harry said.
"Have faith young Harry you are what this world needs in truth all muggle born and raised witches and wizards are what this world needs because they open our eyes to things that we may never have dreamed possible."Merlin replied.
"And the best part is you will change the fortunes of Dobby Winky and Kreature making their lives better than they could have ever imagined."Rowena said.
"What about Aunt Petunia and Mom and Severus and Dad and Sirius?"Harry asked.
"Your Aunt Petunia was never happy with herself though your mother loved her no matter what Petunia thought of herself."Godric said.
"What do you mean?"Harry asked.
"Your Aunt was never treated differently in comparison to how they treated your mother they showed them love in equal measure even when your mother began having her bouts of accidental magic and your Aunt began to think it was more of an excuse to love your mother more than was the beginning of the rift that would turn into a chasm between them."Merlin said.
