Author's Note

Hey guys! This is, as the description said, a story about the adventures of the big four at Hogwarts leading up to their seventh year. This is a collection of stories happening in no particular order (one entry could be sixth year and the next entry could jump down to third) and each entry is entirely its own plot. This isn't a book filled with different chapters as much as it is a volume filled with different stories. Occasionally, multiple chapters will be part one/part two/part three of the same story, but for the most part, each individual chapter is its own story. It will be updated frequently and go on hiatus quite a bit, as this is only a side project I'm doing out of popular demand after finished my original ROTBTD story of the big four in their seventh year. If you want to read it (and reading it might make a little more sense of this storybook) the link is here: s/9866992/1/ROTBTD-Four-Against-Fear

These are told in the third person narrative but are not omniscient narration, so one story would be, for example, from Hiccup's point of view where you can only get inside of his head and thoughts, but I wouldn't be using the first person (I, me, my) so it's easier when I switch to, say, Rapunzel's point of view for the next story.

The previous ROTBTD novel I wrote about their seventh year (see the link above) is a story with more plot, angst, foreshadowing, suspense, and basic overall literary structure. That book tied more into the worlds of Jack, Merida, Rapunzel, and Hiccup while putting them in Hogwarts.

This book, however, is a little more canonically aligned with the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, and, while it takes place in the late 1600s, is going to have references to characters you already know from Hogwarts (mainly professors). I'm not going to be including characters like Harry or Voldemort or others like that, because it might take away from the ROTBTD world.

Basically, think of this like a TV show. Every "episode" (chapter) has its own little plot, but its all tied to one world. And it jumps around in time. A lot. Like Doctor Who.

I mentioned that I'm writing this partially because it was fan-driven. Don't worry; I want to do this for myself, too, so I will retain my writing quality. My point is: if you have something you want me to write for this storybook, comment in the reviews or send me a private message. Unless it messes with continuity in my original story (again, the link is above), there is a 99% chance I could put it in here, and credit your username as inspiration.

Again, I know I really keep throwing this in your face, but I encourage you to read my first ROTBTD novel before reading this storybook. Even though that book chronologically takes place after these stories, it might help make a little more sense. Thanks for sticking by me, my wonderful readers. This storybook is for you!
