You Raise Me Up

Hogwarts Castle.

A place like none other to most, with it's enchanting towers and many secrets. To some it's a torture chamber, built solely to trap students in and force them to learn. But to a very small group, consisting of, perhaps, one person, it was home. That one person's name is Harry Potter, a man who grew up belittled by his hateful relatives, and bullied by everyone else. He never knew love until he arrived at Hogwarts, the only link he truly had to his parents.

He met his two best friends there, learned that he was good at something that hadn't been thrust upon him, but rather passed down to him by his father, and perhaps even by his father's father. He discovered a talent that was so rare, it caused him to be further alienated until people realized the truth. He saved someone's life while nearly giving up his own. He met the closest thing to a father he would ever have, only to lose him a mere two years later.

He witnessed a friend's death and heard his parent's voices for the first time. He used his first unforgivable to avenge his godfather. He watched his best friend, no, that was an understatement. He watched his brother die in agony – for him. For the first time, within the castle walls, he felt as if a part of him died. He learned a prophecy that would either end his own life, or force him to become a murderer.

He also fell in love. In love with a woman he vowed never to hurt, and a woman he vowed to protect and live for. This castle was indeed a place of great mystery, loss, and love. A place where only the strong will survive, a place where love will never die. Within these walls, a tale will unfold. A tale of death, a tale of suffering, a tale of the strength to keep going. Above all, it is a tale of love. A love that is unconquerable and will live forever, if only within the castle's walls.

This, this is their story...
