Prologue
In stifling silence a hooded man tenderly carried a bundle in his arms as he ran through the gates of the Flamel Manor. As soon as he reached the gigantic doors he knocked twice loudly. For a few minutes silence ensured in the dark night when he heard a thudding of feet on the other side of the door and next moment the doors opened to reveal another man who looked to be at his mid- fifties but his eyes betrayed the truth reflecting through them centuries of knowledge. Glittering obsidian eyes regarded him for a second and then opened the doors wider granting him entrance.
The hooded man carefully stepped in holding the bundle tightly to his chest and turned around to look at the man. "You're Lord Fla….." he began but was immediately cut of.
"Yes I am Nicholas Flamel the man whom you have come searching. I already know what favour you want me to do but now I want to simply know why?"
The man lifted his hood and gave the other man a haunted look. "I have only the safety of my child in mind. I am a seer. I have seen that soon a prophet will give a prophecy which would rule my son's life unless I do something. Ultimately my son will be dark. I know this. I am loyal to the Dark Lord too, but I want my son to have a childhood. For that I am willing to do everything. If I give him to my lord now then whole life he'll only be trained to kill. I do not want that. Please do me this favour. Hide my son. Give him your name. Hide his true features with runic glamours. Train him in secret. Make him a tough but wise fighter. However also tell him about his true parentage. Tell him why I had to leave him. Tell him that I love him enough to lie to the Dark Lord."
Lord Flamel looked at him for sometime and then held out his arms. The man handed over the bundle to him. He lifted the hood of the blanket and was gifted with the sight of two unique, bright, silverfish emerald eyes peering curiously at him. He gave a small smile at the baby and it cooed in turn. He looked back at the miserable father who was now wearing a pained face.
"His birth name?" Lord Flamel asked.
The man hesitated for sometime.
"Hadrian Edmond Regulus Black."
The Flamel Lord nodded. "Go now. From this time the Black heir will be my successor. When time comes you shall meet your son again. By the way how will you explain the disappearance of the baby to your wife and the healers?"
The younger man gave a bitter smile.
"At the very second of birth I used the Time Freezer- a new discovery in the Department of Mysteries, and quickly replaced a stillborn baby glamoured to look like Hadrian in his place and slipped my son to the dungeons making him fall asleep with a spell. After that I removed the Freezer and the rest went as planned. At the next chance I got I told everyone that I need some time to deal with the grief of my stillborn heir and sneaked out Hadrian the moment I was out of the Manor to come here."
Lord Flamel gave a smile. "Your wife will kill you when the truth is out"
"We'll see, we'll see." Next moment the man vanished.
