Chapter 1

The day after the funeral found Harry Potter sitting on the bank of the Black Lake, tossing in stones as he reflected over the last six years of his life. It was not too long ago, when Harry could only speculate what life would be like to have real friends and family, ones who love and protect each other. Until that faithful day he received his Hogwarts letter. He discovered a whole secret world, a world he only dreamt and imagined about. A wondrous world of magic and mysticism, it was everything he could ever want. He had met his first real friend in Ronald Weasley; he was a gangly sort of boy that came from a poor but loving family. That year he found his Best friend in a girl, Hermione Granger, she was the cleverest witch of their year. That year he also came across the vilest of creatures, the eponymy of evil itself, Lord Voldemort. He murdered Harry's mother and father, when he was one year old. The same day Harry received his lightning bolt scare when Lord Voldemort's killing curse rebounded and cause him to lose his body. In that year he faced Voldemort while he possessed a Hogwarts teacher, to steal the sorcerer stone, to make the elixir of life. The next year he came across a mere memory of Voldemort, sucking the life out of Ginny Weasley, Ron's younger sister. He had to kill a giant Serpent, the basilisk, with only a sword and the headmaster's pet phoenix. His third year was fairly quiet he found his greatest fear and his only father figure. In fourth year marked a turning point in Harry's young life, participated in a dangerous tournament, watched a fellow classmate die at the hands of his parent's betrayer, and was a main ingredient in the resurrection of the most evil wizard to terrorize the world. His fifth year was the year he lost his godfather and found out only he can save mankind from destruction. Then this past year, in his opinion was the worst yet. The only man to have protected Harry for the last fifteen years has died. He was lost.

Harry's thoughts were interrupted by a screech of an owl approaching from the castle. The barn owl had a letter addressed to him in its beak. Taking the letter had the familiar writing of his head of house, Professor McGonagall.

Mr. Potter,

I am requesting you to come to the headmaster's office immediately, for I have urgent business to discuss.

Professor McGonagall.

Harry stood up from where he was sitting wondering what kind of business she had to address. He hoped she would not continue to interrogate his on his whereabouts with Professor Dumbledore, the night of his death. It took all of twenty minutes for Harry to get to the gargoyle guarding Dumbledore's old office. When he got there, the gargoyles bowed and moved out of the way, revealing the moving stair case leading up to the office. Upon entering the office he was hit with a wave of emotion, Sadness, off to the right was Fawkes' golden perch, on the shelf was the old sorting hat, and directly in front was Professor McGonagall sitting behind the wood desk. His throat went dry and his eyes stung with tears threatening to come forth. A Familiar voice spoke, "do not morn for me Harry, you must celebrate life and all is wonders."

"How can I celebrate when I know, I am not strong enough to face him, I can't bare to loose any one else that I love, Professor"

"Harry I loved you too, but this is bigger than you and me. The fates' have set things in motion and it is up to you now. It is time that you know every thing that I should have told you had I still been alive. First do you know the legend of Excalibur? "

At this Harry nodded to the old man in the portrait above McGonagall's head.

"Well, as I can see you two have much to discuss I shall take my leave", stated McGonagall.

When McGonagall left the door slammed with a resounding "SLAM", and it seal it self shut.

"Now, Harry, What I am going to tell you will be a shock so please sit and here me out. Do not interrupt me and hold your questions till the end." At Harry's nod Dumbledore continued, "Okay, to start at the beginning, over a thousand years ago the world of muggles and magic were one. It was not always that way. It started with Merlin and Arthur. Arthur had rallied the people under a single banner. He had also married a witch, Guinevere. They had a son together Godric Pendragon, Who later became known as Godric of Gryffindor. He then fell in love with an Elvin princess Rowena of Raven. They had a daughter who married John Potter, whose parents was the druid priestess Helga Hufflepuff and a muggle named Richard Potter. Needless to say, John Potter was your great-great grand father on your Father's side. Now not much was known about your mother's side until just before I passed. I found out that Lily Potter was my Great grand daughter. We thought she was lost to us and come to find out she was under my nose." At this Harry started to look really angry, His eyes were glowing, his hair was moving to an unseen breeze. Books on the shelves were rattling, threatening to leave their places. Then from his portrait Dumbledore exclaimed, "HARRY JAMES POTTER, CALM YOURSELF!" Not seeing Harry calm any he started to chant "Hogwarts, servo vestri parvulus." A wave of calming energy emanated from the walls, floors and ceiling of the castle and passing through Harry. Harry stopped glowing and seemed to visibly clam as a melodious voice resonated in his head, "Calm my child, all will be well in time". When Dumbledore saw that Harry was ready, "Now, I did not tell you because it would have caused you more pain, you see I already knew my time on this plane of existence was over and I did not want to hurt you any more than I already have in the past. For you to know now is a matter of importance. One being there was another Prophecy made, one made five hundred years ago, by the renowned Seer Cassandra Trelawney. It was, Orbis terrarum vadum reperio suus champion, is ero of a elvin progenies, sapiens ultra totus clementia. Is vadum valeo is teneo non, quod change mos cedo him. Orbis terrarum vadum reperio suus champion. Its basic translation is, 'The world shall find its champion, and he will be of an elvin descent, wiser beyond all humanity. He shall have power he knows not, and change will precede him. The world shall find its champion'."

Harry looked bewildered, "So, what does that have to do with me?"

"Don't you see Harry, you are one-half elvin on your father's side and you are full blooded elvin on your mother's side."

Dumbledore watching Harry, seeing the look of astonishment and comprehension on Harry's face. Answered his question before it even came out of his mouth " Yes, Harry I see you understand, I am a High Elf."

"But, sir I thought elves were myths?" Harry asked still confused.

"No, we just left this realm over a thousand years ago. You see, the elves are immortal, they are made of magic. And cannot die of old age, but can die if one releases their spirit from their body." Dumbledore responded.

"So, you're not really dead then?"

"Atlas, I am. The potion guarding the horcrux weaken me so much when the killing curse hit me, my spirit would not stay in my body. For, you must under stand the killing curse kills you by separating you soul from your body causing, your organs to shut down. But, we are getting off our main purpose here. The main reason I am telling you this is since you are three quarters elf, you will undergo a magical maturity on your seventeenth birthday. At which time you will have a compelling urge to find your animus material or soul mate if you will and you're familiar. The quest will be harder then you have come across before. I believe I know your soul mate, she is close." Dumbledore stopped at Harry's questioning glance. He raised his hand to stop him "I can not tell you who, you must find out for yourself. However, you're familiar is a different story, no one knows who or what their familiar is they will be compelled to search. I do not want you to return to the Dursley's this year, I have spoken to Professor McGonagall and we have agreed that you will stay here at Hogwarts until after you maturation. I suggest you to try to get yourself in top physical shape as you can in the next four weeks. It will make the process go smoother. Now it is late and you need your sleep. Go now and remember the ones you truly love will never leave us."

Harry turned to go with a lot on his mind; he turned back and saw Dumbledore no longer in his frame.
