The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches... Born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies... and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not... and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives

Deep within the soul it dwells, waiting
Deep within the being it lies, waiting
A snake coiled, placed by change
A snake with sharp tongue and mind
Foreign and misshaped, forced within
Foreign and unable to be understood
Surrounded by light, and growing fast
Surrounded by natural good, and overpowered.
… For now at least
Greater darkness grows outside.
Greater still is the lightness within.
Within a boy, who serves as a blank canvas
Within a man, who will choose between shades
There is no grey to decide on
There is no hope is the snake strikes out
Equal power of light and dark
Equal chance of victory for both

- Fight for Power

Harry James Potter has no idea of the war going on inside, although he is quite aware of the one happening around him. Humans are so ignorant of the mystical workings, despite their influence the world that they know. Each being has a purpose, a destiny if you prefer to call it that. Then Fate has what would closely resemble a female's 'moodswing' and the whole thing will be thrown off balance.

Within the young boy with eyes of green, lies a power few can conceive. It is the power of choice amongst others of equal importance. A fateful night years ago sealed his fate with the planting of a small, dark seed in his soul. This seed is grown under the light if his natural good, but may choke off its own life force.

The light is now at odds with the dark, and inside Harry James Potter the two sides are now at a stalemate until the boy makes a choice. He is weak, and until the moment comes for a side to show through he will remain that way.

Either dark or light must win the war inside this one soul. For neither can live while the other survives.
