Prologue: The Fire Inside

Greed, like fire, feeds off everything around it. It destroys until nothing is left, and only when fully satiated, dies away. But in that lies the twist. Greed, unlike fire, never dies; for it is never satisfied. It instills itself in the heart of every living being. It is never picky; it will spread throughout anyone willing to house it. No one is immune to its plague. No one can be saved from its wrath. No one can escape its clutches.

But everyone has a choice: to act upon their greed or to not. One man's decison lead to a world's downfall. His need for power grew as time passed, until nothing else mattered. He needed to quench his thirst, but he never did. He still has not.

This is not his story though. This is a tale of a young woman whose life -like many- was forever altered in consequence to this man's desire. When loved ones were taken from her, greed took their places. Its indestructible hands clasped around her, influencing her every thought, her every action. It drove her to make a choice.

One man's choice shattered a world into pieces, but another's might be able to put it back together. Hermione Granger was going to get her friends back. She was going to be Voldemort's downfall.
