My Dear Draco,
I was Sweden through it all. Neutrality was my mantra while England and Germany was at war for seven years. It would have seen that I was for you, but my heart ached for a green-eyed man that caught my eye too long ago. It was by principle that I chose him over you, and this is my letter to let you know why.
War has destroyed us all, and I was no exception. The front lines did not call my name, and I was not willing to fight for my freedom. There was a reason, and I didn't realize it was the choice between you or Potter.
I believed in being neutral because being neutral meant that war was not going to be my lady. Being neutral means that no wars would have been fought. It has been about ten years since that fateful day where the wizarding community has turned their back on us. We fell from the top to the bottom in a blink of an eye.
The man with a scar on his head forgave me, but he holds such hate in his veins for you that I can't send this without feeling guilty. We have children. Dark haired children with my dark eye and they have a love for Quidditch. I wish his green eyes could have been passed down to the next generation, but they are lost such as our souls.
The day I wore a white dress, you asked me a question. You asked me why him, and I didn't have an answer for you. Today, ten years later, I found my answer. I was looking in my daughter's eyes when it occurred to me what being neutral meant.
All my life I wanted one thing. I have wished upon a star wanting everything to end. I didn't want to fight, and I never wanted a war to happen. Secretly, I wanted good to triumph all. Fairytales and princesses were my life as a child and those ideals stuck with me without realization.
Looking into my daughter's brown eyes, I realized that I wanted my children to play. Being with the man I married ensured that because he will always fight for freedom, and you will always fight for havoc.
That's why I left you for Harry Potter. It was for principle, and I stand by my decision to this day. I don't regret a thing. We had to learn to love one another, and we loved each other from the start. I know you understand because it is the same reason you chose the youngest Weasley. This was our ticket to freedom.
Being neutral has a price, but the rewards are even greater.
Love,
Pansy Potter
