Mystery of the Fae
The Chaldea security organization. A group created by the UN and the mages organizations of the world to prevent disasters before they happen be they of magical or human origin. The group being a neutral entity had a mandate of only interfering with situations of global scale. It was not however unknown for them to have been invited to act as mediators or investigators within countries that invite them. When these situations did occur however they had to operate within strict codes of conduct and as outsiders.
It was due to this that the organisation had its facilities built within the one truly neutral place on the planet, Antarctica, this allowed them to operate freely, it also allowed the scientists and mages attached to them to conduct the more dangerous experiments without worry. It also worked well since the main powers of the UN also 'claimed' the giant slab of ice they each provided funding and supplies in return for the advances that the organisation provided.
Deep within the facility was a room that had a special purpose, one of several that had been created for unique uses. This one though was created for a purpose that few would believe unless they saw it in use. This purpose was the summoning of spirits, the spirits of a unique nature. Heroes and villains from the past, from alternate timelines have all been summoned and gathered for the purpose of the protection of the human order.
It was within this room that the summoning took place. It seemed to be a relatively unremarkable room, despite its heavily shielded and armoured walls, there was only a control booth to monitor the proceedings and two platforms, one which had a complex set of markings engraved into it, the other surrounded by a few mechanisms, sensors and displays to allow the summoner to see the progress of the ritual.
The door had opened and in walked three female staff members, one tall brunette in a multi colour outfit, this was Leonardo davinci, one of the people summoned and a confusing case of how the summoning system can be manipulated at both ends of the connection. Next was a petite girl with pink hair and glasses. This was mash and was the assistant to the new director. She had also been with the organisation since it had been founded in one form or another.
Lastly was a red headed girl the newest director of the facility she was called ritsuka fujimaru. Overall she was unremarkable as a magus in all aspects except for one. She had been blessed with a compatibility to form contracts to spirits and was able to hold an unfathomable number at the same time. It was due to this that the facility had over three hundred heroic spirits within its walls at last count all of whom contracted to the facilities director.
"So are you ready?" called Da Vinci from her station in the control booth as she prepared the room's link to the mana reactor, preparing it to take the load of the new servant that might be summoned.
Mash standing next to her prepared the monitors ready to gather the necessary information on the servant to allow them to track the information of the servant. A tedious process but it gave the organisation one of the largest libraries in the world as they had managed to fill in the blanks from history that had been lost, they did have to be careful though as the possibility of alternate histories being included was always possible the singularities and lost belts proved this.
So as the director walked onto the platform and fed in the necessary fuel for the process then placed her palm onto the reader and channeled her mana starting the ritual lighting the circle in its ethereal haze and giving off a sense of power, the readings being fed to the control room, all she could do was watch and wait as the process that she had done many times before took place once again.

The world was a large place with many secrets within it. Ancient mysteries hidden from sight or millenia. Civilizations lost from knowledge from history. One such secret was actually not much of one as it was an open secret that was being carefully monitored by the world's organizations. Magic, what had once been a well hidden secret, had been blown open with the invention of the CCTV and the internet. This however had been handled with the creation of the chaldean security organisation which gave the world an excuse to say that it was contained in a controlled manner.
It was a smoke screen as all of the governments knew of the other side of the coin to the magus organisations. The wizarding enclaves. Reclusive, egotistical and backwards, the enclaves were carefully monitored by their hosting governments; it was these enclaves that had been an incentive for the creation of chaldea as they were known to create unrest amongst countries and be able to get away with it. The most well known ( amongst highly placed officials at least) was one gellert grindelwald. So when the british started having mysterious 'terrorist' issues the UN did not need to look far for the issue,
Unfortunately at this time the chaldean organisation was busy with the singularity crisis and was not able to come to the aid, Clock tower enforcers and church executors containing the damage to mostly the magical areas as when a wizard encountered one the did not return to tell the tale. The issue was resolved on its own in an unknown manner however as the war suddenly stopped and all the contact that the British prime minister got for contact was a brief letter from his magical counterpart stating that the unrest was over, no details were given.
Naturally this did not appease the non magical side and so they started to plan contingencies as after the last two outbreaks they did not trust the competence of these magicals at all. Also with the lack of communication they needed information. Thus began the long game.

On the surface she had always been a good girl, obeying the rules, studying hard and doing her hardest however what people did not know is that one Lily Evans was not everything she seemed. It was true that she respected dumbledore but that was not for the reasons people thought, they thought it was due to his power or due to him being a light wizard, no it was his power she respected. Unlike voldemort who was insane she respected Albus due to his power and control technically she respected grindelwald more, that ability to sway the masses to his cause, to use both light and dark magic seamlessly it was awe inspiring.
However the books and records of the man and his feats had been censored; there were gaps or they had been entirely missing, almost as if someone was trying to suppress something. This had irritated her even the records on the Nazis were not as doctored as these were. So yes Lily admired strength. This was why despite his strength she could not stand Potter, he was an immature child in her eyes. He had no control over his impulses. She did have to thank him though, he did help her see severus for who he truly was, a vindictive small minded cretin. To think that she helped him get a passion for potions.
So it was as the years passed that the war grew, the Potter family was assassinated and James finally matured through the pain and they grew close. Graduating from school and finally getting married. She had gained a job as an Unspeakable with James as an auror, this was the catalyst for Albus to approach them to join his group of vigilantes. He was always looking for new recruits and with James as the head of his family, being a political power house it was exactly what he needed in his corner to enact changes to help in the war.
Lily however was getting frustrated as she had been trying to conceive a child with no success and thus began to look into aid to help in her task. What she did not know however was that James had been taking a contraceptive potion not wanting a child during the war. He felt that it would only increase the danger placed upon them if they had a child at that moment.
It was during her searches within the hidden libraries of the department of mysteries that she found what she was looking for, a way to conceive a child. To be exact she found multiple as it was not exactly a unique wish. Multiple cultures had developed ways to aid in such an endeavor. The first was the easiest, simply adopt and then perform a blood adoption. Whilst magic accepts this method the ministry had long since refused to accept such a method and would not accept this and refuse all such a child. This was not what she was looking for.
The next method was to call upon the norse gods, this made her giggle slightly as despite knowing that calling upon certain 'entities' of magic could empower it through the magic especially with magic the very thought that gods were real made her giggle. She should be more open minded as she knew magic was real but gods? She looked at the ritual and found that it was ancient and whilst she could understand some of the runes quite a few of them were unknown to her. Unknown runes were dangerous runes as they would have an unknown effect. It was not worth the danger.
Next was a greek ritual, she could understand this one as it was written in greek, a language that she was required to understand for her magic, however despite the ritual looking promising and again despite it claiming to call up a god, this time artemis, it was a sub note that annoyed her. It was noted that the children born from this series(series?) rituals would have noticeable personality quirks similar to their patrons. When she read that she could not help but sigh, if by patron it meant artemis the child would have quirks like her then it meant a short temper to men then no this would not be acceptable.
She pulled out the final one, a ritual that called upon the fae, and that was the only issue that she could see. Fae by nature could be as honest as could be or trickier than loki. It would depend upon the fae. So with a sigh she made up her mind.

There she was holding her new child, her lovely little girl, morgan. The name she had been told was to be her name. She had used the ritual of the fae, and to her surprise she had been met by a beautiful woman claiming to be titania. Standing before her was a person of myth. Well at least until it was explained to her that the name titania was more of a title than it was a name. It was added onto the person's original name upon gaining their position.
So there she was being questioned about why she had used the ritual and her motivations, the entire time she was talking it felt as if the woman was starting into her soul, those eyes peeling away at her every word and intention, nothing she said or meant seemed to be able to be hidden from her as when she tried to hide her fears about her husband not being able to give her children and her fascination with strength she was called out by the fae.
It was at that point that the questions began, such as her motivations, her dreams, what she would do with such power. Would she use a child of the fae or would she guide and protect them. On and on it went. Lily had begun to fear that she had not appeased the titania and had failed in her self appointed quest. It was not until a month later when she was contacted again by the fae again.
"I must congratulate you young one." she said in the musical voice that she had spoken in.
Lily just looked at the ethereal woman in confusion. "What do you mean?" she asked.
"Well you are with child" the fae replied with a chuckle that was light and airy. "A child that is of fae descent as your ritual requested." she smirked at the shocked look on the youngsters face.
"Is this not what you wanted?" the elder asked whimsically.
Lily, coming out of her shock, smiled, "yes i wanted a child, i can't be more happy, but what do you mean of Fae descent."
The titania smirked, "the magics you used caused an intermingling of our magics and upon agreement and upon my accepting it allowed the gestation of the little one. It is the reason the ritual was created; it allows for a child to be born through magic alone and continue bloodlines, " she explained her grin growing. "I would appreciate it if the little one had the name of Morgan when she was born." This confused lily. "How do you know it will be a girl?"
"Simple since we are both women, how can she be a boy with no male involved?" the Faes smirk just grew and she turned and walked away chuckling softly to herself. "I shall be in contact, but only with you." and with that she faded away.
That was not the last time that lily saw titania as she would visit when james and their friends were out. With only herself and the fae there she would occasionally leave instructions on how to raise their child. Nothing drastic, just simple things such as how to deal with her dual mentality. How to stop the fae and human halves from coming into conflict. Lily had never been more glad at having been taught the mind arts than she was then and decided that one of the first things her daughter would learn was those.
Unfortunately the war had been growing more intense and with the birth of her second child, young Harrison, she found herself being called into the office of albus more and more often. There were talks about alliances and how to keep the children safe. She could see what he was angling at he was wanting to create contracts for the children and she was having none of it
So there she was in the so called "child friendly" meetings of the order having to defend her children from the claws of predatory advances from others who were just looking to get at her and James' family. This was made all the worse by the fact that Albus was not so subtly approving of the moves being made. Lily could only be glad when they had to go into hiding because of what she felt was a false prophecy. The wording of what she was told was so vague that it could mean hundreds of people, even thousands, to be born within a specific time frame and to have defied someone. Those two definitions were so broad it was unbelievable.
Lily however just used the excuse to allow her and her family to withdraw from the conflict. She had had her fill and wanted to focus on her family. That was exactly what she did, at least that was what she did until that fateful day when the monster came.

Albus Dumbledore, the leader of the light, Chief warlock and supreme mugwump of the ICW. He is a man in many positions of power that allows him to be privy to many of the world's secrets. Thus he was aware of the church and their burial agencies. The executors and exorcists that the church sent out to deal with demons and vampires that caused issues in the world.
He was also aware of the magus, a branch of magic users that split long ago due to disagreements on how magic was to be used, an incident that happened long before the statute of secrecy. He was well aware of their organisations and how they were arrayed in the world. He was also aware of how his old friend Nicholas Flamel was one of the founders of the so-called Atlas institute.
It was the secrecy of the mages and their insistence on 'family crafts' that had him slowly push for laws that eroded such archaic practices. In his opinion they were not needed and only caused more troubles and division within the community. The fact that his own family was known for having extremely flexible magic allowing them to not over specialise was completely lost to him.
So it was that during the war whilst overseeing his order of the phoenix in their resistance against his old student that he received two prophecies. One he knew instantly what to do with as it was obviously about the defeat of his old student. It had laid out a clear set of circumstances which only pointed to a few people allowing for him to be able to set plans in motion.
He had already started some plans to ensure that his order would remain together and loyal to him in the next generation. It was one tradition that even if he vocally protested against it internally he was for the usage of marriage contracts. They allowed the building of solid foundations of alliances both political and financial. Albus had always been playing the long game and the contracts ensured a stable long term plan.
The joker in his deck though was that second prophecy. He had no clue what it ment.
The wheel turns again
Prophecy strikes again
Shadows hides one with power
Treat them with hate at peril, rage will engulf them
Treat with love , the light will blind
The oncoming of the twilight and balance will come forth.
He had no idea what it meant, so he decided to ignore it. He already had one chosen one with which to prepare for. To tutor, to guide in the ways of the light . He will be that mentor and when the time comes, when his student returns…
Yes, he had plans to make but for now it was time to send the potters and the longbottoms into hiding, time to start the new game, the long game.

There was a flash of light and an explosion and the body of James potter was catapulted across the room in a hail of shrapnel and splinters from the shattered door. They had been in hiding for a short while with a literal handful of people knowing their location due to the spell that had been cast upon them. However the second that the door was blasted Lily knew that she only had minutes left at most, seconds was pushing it.
She quickly settled the children into their beds and set up her final preparations. Preparations that she had been doing since they had moved in. She had been preparing old potter contract magic, a ritual circle, a geass, on the floor just in case something happened and had already set up things with gringotts.
So when the door was blasted open and the splinters cut her blood to activate the magic hit the circle, she only had to hope that she did it right. The book had said that she just needed to get him to agree to her terms by deed or action. So she placed out her terms simply and clearly.
"Take my life but leave my children alone" she stated clearly so that magic would accept the contract she could see the sneer and malicious intent on the eyes hidden within the cloak. She also knew that the beast would never pass up such an opportunity as this free kill.
She was right as she was hit by a curse, which she did not know as her eyes were closed and she did not hear the words he spoke. But that was the last she saw.

The life of morgan potter was not a happy one, she knew nothing of her parents, she only knew her name as she had heard it said whilst her aunt talking to a neighbour about her. she had been caught before she could hear anything other than that. Her life had been painful and cold as she only had too large clothes and a ragged and worn blanket within the cupboard that they called her room.
It was the anniversary of her arriving here at her so called aunts house and she was praying to be anywhere but here as it was always worse on three days, her birthday, this day and christmas. It was as if they were trying to make a point, trying to break her.
That however was not what would happen this day as at the same time this day a red haired woman was within a secure room doing a ritual, that ritual would connect to Morgan's magic and plees. In doing so would start a process that would awaken a legend.

"It looks like we have a winner!" shouted Davinci as the monitors picked up that the summoning was successful and was in the process of finalizing. Looking over the information of the spirit origin she was slightly confused as within the circle was a young girl, who looked badly beaten and starved, the readouts however were showing something completely different.
Spirit origin
Name: Morgan Le Fae/ morgan lilith potter
Age: 5 / Reincarnation
Class: not applicable
Species: Fae/human
…
"Erm Ritsuka we have an issue here!" Davinci squeaked out as she looked at the information. However when she looked up she saw the redhead crouched over the girl before picking her up in her arms before quickly carrying her from the room. Without looking back.
Mash could only sigh. It would seem that the facility would have yet another interesting resident. Well at least it was not something that they had not dealt with before. From gilgamesh and his arrogance, to jackie and her murderous ways to atalanta and her obsession with saving children. It could be said that to be powerful was to be unique in many different ways as every one of the heroes had equally powerful personalities.
Well she would just have to wait and see where it would take them. With that she left to follow her senpai.
