Quick note for the 6th chapter.

If you are confused about Tei and Tara's stories, I'll give you a little clarification.

Tara – Tara's story is there to represent the fact that a person can go insane after endless amounts of physical and mental torture. The difference between Tara's condition and Harry's is really irrelevant. The main point is that if you are put through enough mental and physical stress, you can snap.

Tei – Tei's story might be a little more difficult to figure out. First of all, I know Tei didn't kill himself. That part was my fault. It took on a life of it's own and it came out totally different than what I planned. I guess the point of Draco telling Tei's story is that the Death Eater's are persistent bastards who will use any means to get what they want. This means they will continue to attack Harry until he's dead. This combined with Harry's already fragile state will push him closer to the edge. That and Tei's past was similar (in some ways) to Harry's, and thus reminded Draco of it. Yes, Tei's story does have significance, it's just hard to find.

I'm sorry for any confusion due to the stories. I just realized it about 2 hours after I posted the chapter, and maybe this author's note will help you understand why Draco even told these stories. That's all for now kiddies, see you soon!
