The Wizarding world was in uproar. Just yesterday the daily prophet had been calling young Harry Potter 'the-boy-who-lived'. Today Harry and his godfather Sirius Black had apparently, according to data somehow collected in the Department of Mysteries, vanished off the face of the Earth in the early hours of the morning.

Acting in response to the anonymous tip he'd received Albus Dumbledore had Peter Pettigrew arrested by the aurors and given a Veritaserum trial. Pettigrew confessed to being a spy for Voldemort for over a year and to betraying James and Lily Potter. His trial led to the arrest and trials under Veritaserum (and the convictions) of several prominent community members including Lucius Malfoy.

Lord Malfoy's wife was granted a divorce, which she'd filed for as soon as her husband was arrested, and she and her son Draco took her maiden name: Black. Narcissa Black was a cousin of Sirius.


In Narnia, Mr Tumnus had woken up early and walked to the window of the room he now occupied in Cair Paravel, as he had every morning since the coronations of the kings and queens. Looking out of the window the faun witnessed the sudden appearance of a boat, carrying three passengers, upon the sea. The vessel was headed towards the beach below the castle so Mr Tumnus hurried off to alert their majesties about the imminent arrivals.

The Pevensie siblings arose and dressed quickly upon hearing the faun's news and were already seated upon the four thrones in their great hall when a knocking was heard upon the castle door. Moments later a red dwarf led two strangers, one carrying a baby, into the room.

The woman curtsied and the man gave a half-bow as the baby he held prevented his doing a full one. It was the woman who spoke.

"I am Lady Viola, last of the Fae, only fairy left in existence. My companion is Lord Black. The child is his godson, Lord Potter, who parents were murdered two nights ago. We come from the world of men to seek sanctuary in Narnia. The one who murdered Lord Potter's family would kill the child too if he could and he has many followers who wouldn't hesitate to kill a child either."

"How dreadful. You are indeed welcome in Narnia. You must stay as long as you require it. We will have rooms prepared for you immediately."

"Thank you King Peter." Viola curtsied again.

"Now I do believe it's time for breakfast. Are you hungry?" Queen Lucy asked. Viola and Sirius looked at each other realising that it'd been at least a day since either had eaten.

"Starving Your Majesty" replied Sirius. The kings and queens rose from their thrones ad led the way to the banqueting hall. The tables groaned with foods fit for every inhabitant of the castle including a one-year-old child.
