Okay, sorry it took so long to update as some stuff has happened since I started this story. So Just read the review's and I am sorry for any mistakes I may or may not have made in the first chapter. I have chosen Myrridan for Harry's name (Thanks for the name ZodiacsKlaroline) but yes Lily is, or was, a Pureblood but from which House she is from will be up to you my faithful Reader's. I have decided to have Harry meet Draco (who's name is Draconis) first and to have his mother and father split up with his father becoming an advisor to the Queen. Luna and Daphne with come in later.
So without further ado, here is the second chapter. Hope you like it.

Chapter 2: Chapter 2
Myrridan meets a Goblin and Draconis Malfoy.
Queen Elizabeth the second's POV.
Well, it has been five years since I had young Harry, whom I have renamed Myrridan, was brought to me and those five years have once again shown me the joy and happiness with raising a child can bring. It also brought fear for his life and I was more tired after a day of looking after him than I have ever been as he seems to have so much energy that by the end of the day both me and his maidservant's are tired and maybe just a little grumpy by the time we all go to bed.
But I still wouldn't have had it any other way as Myrridan is a ball of love and fun and is able to bring a smile to anyone's face when they first met him.
Over the last five years I have noticed many different things that happen around little Myrridan that she knew wasn't normal for a normal witch or wizard and so I contacted my Court Wizard and had him take a look at the boy and run some scan's to see if he was alright and nothing was wrong with him. Needless to say, I was very concerned when he told me that I should take Myrridan to the Goblins and get them to run a full complete scan on Myrridan for anything that shouldn't be there.
I knew that if I wanted to keep Myrridan safe and healthy then I would have to either go to the nearest Goblin Clan or summon one to me. I decided that the second option was better and it allowed me to keep Myrridan safe and in the palace where he was protected at all times.
And he would be in a place that he knew instead of somewhere where he didn't know. And I would rather keep him happy and calm than anything else but I would take what I can get.
It took two day's to negotiate for a Goblin to come and see Myrridan due to the Goblin actually being the Leader of this particular Goblin Clan of Gringotts but I don't have anything against the wait as he would have to clear his busy schedule to come to my Palace to see to goblin's name is Ragnarok and he was the Director of all the Gringotts Bank's in the entire world, which created a lot of paperwork that seemed to never end. There was a running joke in Gringotts saying that all the Directors of Gringotts would all die before they finished their paperwork and it was true as no goblin has been able to complete even one day of paperwork. When I heard of the Gringotts paperwork problem I laughed as I had the same problem but was allowed to take a break each day to see to Myrridan needs, which while they weren't many, they still seemed to require my attention every day for a few minutes.
It was very important to find out if there was something wrong with littler Myrridan so that I could have it fixed before it really became a problem for him in the future, so the night before Ragnarok was coming, I sent Myrridan to bed early so that he was well rested in the morning.
Ragnarok arrived just as lunch was being served and as I was the one to ask for him to come, I offered him some food as he didn't have time to eat anything for lunch before he left for this meeting as he had another meeting before me with some Pureblood wizard about said wizard's son and wife, whom the wizard was divorcing due to her being caught torturing his son, Draconis Malfoy or Draco/Drake for short. When I found out about what happened to the little boy who was the same age as Myrridan (5 year's old) I decided to see if the father would agree to a little play date between little Myrridan and Draconis but would send the letter of later as I had to stay with Myrridan to keep him calm as Ragnorok and a Goblin Healer started to examine him for anything that shouldn't be there. It only took Ragnorok and the Healer 3 minute's to find out that there was a block on his magic and memory as well as a piece of Tom Riddle's- Lord Voldemort- soul that was hiding behind his scar, which was why it wasn't fading away, that was leeching off of his magic and causing him to have mood swings whenever he was angry or sad.
I had them remove both the block and the soul fragment before they continued to look for anything else. I also asked who put the block on Myrridan magic in the first place and wasn't pleased when they told me that Albus Dumbledore was the one to do it and had apparently checked Myrridan's scar before leaving him, so he knew all about the soul fragment in his scar but did nothing about it. Apart from those two, there were only a few other minor blocks on Myrridan's abilities' like his ability to change into someone else and to talk to snakes but I had them all removed which took about three hours. I also asked if there was any way to fix his eyesight to which they gave him a potion designed to fix his eye's which took an hour and a half to fix during which he fell asleep curled up beside me with a little blanket put on him.
"Well, that is all we could find on Mr Myrridan that shouldn't be there, Your Majesty," Ragnarok said as he wiped the sweat that had gathered upon his brow off with a cloth that he got from his pocket before sitting back and accepting a cup of tea from a maid standing beside the table.
"Thank you Director Ragnorok for all your help." I also accepted a cup of tea from the maid and sat back being careful not to wake the sleeping Myrridan as I did so.
"You're quite welcome Your Majesty and I would do it again in a heartbeat if you so much as asked me to," Ragnarok replied as he took a biscuit to eat with his tea.
"Well I hope that there doesn't come a time where I'll have a need to ask for your assistance with Myrridan but it is good to know that I can count on your help when needed"
"I will always answer you call Your Majesty"
"Okay then let's move on to a more different conversation shall we?"
"Of cause you're Majesty"
"Now you mentioned a young boy by the name of Draconis Malfoy?"
"AH! Yes, young Draconis. Yes, I remember him from when his father, Lord Lucius Malfoy, brought him in after he found him unconscious and bleeding with his now ex-wife standing over him with an enraged look in her eyes and a satisfied smirk on her face. Needless to say, Lord Malfoy was quick in having her arrested and their marriage annulled with her getting nothing in the divorce. Poor little Draconis has barely spoken a word since he woke up two days later and his father is becoming quite concerned with him." Ragnarok had a sad look on his face as he said all this.
"Well maybe I could help with that" I took a chocolate biscuit and ate it after dipping it into my tea.
"Help? How if I may be so bold as to ask if you don't mind?" Ragnarok had a small frown on his forehead after he asked that question.
"Well, there are not a lot of children around the Palace, so when I heard of you meeting before me and heard about the little boy, I thought that I might be able to get into contact with the boy's father and see if he would agree to bring his son here to interact with Myrridan. Who knows, maybe it will help littler Draconis to heal after his mother attacked him?"
"You would be willing to let a known Death Eater into your home and near you're adopted son just to help heal his own son?" now Ragnorok looked confused.
"Of Couse. Myrridan will need a playmate soon to keep him happy and so too will Draconis I should think. It will also allow both boys to become friends and have someone they know going to the same magic school together." I didn't know how many schools of magic there were in the world and I would only choose the best for my son so I would have to ask Ragnarok for a list of magical school's before he left. I don't want to send Myrridan to Hogwarts's were the headmaster was the man that had put littler Myrridan with his abusive relative's in the first place, Albus Dumbledore, so a school in another country would be best I think, even if I didn't want him to go so far away just for school. But littler Myrridan would need to learn how to control and harness his magic so I would have to deal with it when the time came for him to go and learn. " All so could you please give me a list of magical schools in the world and anything about them, so that I may choose the best one for Myrridan please?"
"Well I could get into contact with Lord Malfoy for you and see if he is willing to meet with you about it but it is well known that he hates non-magical people or Muggle's as they are called in the Wizarding World. It has been well known that he calls all Muggle-born wizards and witch's Mudbloods so I wouldn't hold my breath. As for the list of magical schools, it will take me a couple of days to gather the list and any information about them for you but it can be done, for a small fee of cause" Ragnorok set his now empty teacup done and started to gather up his things as he had another meeting to get to that required his immediate attention. "I'll send a letter to Lord Malfoy as soon as my next meeting is over. Good Bye, You is Majesty and may you find the school your looking for from the list when you get it soon." Ragnarok bowed to the Queen before being escorted out of the Castle with the Goblin Healer that had come with him.
"Goodbye Ragnorok and good luck with your next meeting" I gave a slight bow of my head to the Goblin Leader as he left with the Healer before having the maid remove the food and bring my paperwork of the day to me so that I, too, may get some work done while not waking up Myrridan, who was still sleeping soundly. I managed to get most of it done before Myrridan woke up and wanted to play with the maid that was assisting me so I allowed her to take Myrridan outside to the play equipment that I had brought and put up for him but made sure that there was always someone on watch in case something happened while I wasn't looking.
Bedside's Myrridan always seemed to have fun climbing all over it and running through the many tunnels that lead to different areas of the playground that I had planned to make bigger as he got older until he stopped playing on it, which wouldn't be until he hit teenage year's. I also planned to donate it to a nearby orphanage when he was done with it for the kids there to play on it.
It would be two full days before I received a letter from Lord Malfoy agreeing to meet with me with his son Draconis to see if the boys got along, which I knew that Myrridan, at least, would happily get along with Draconis very well. I agreed to let him come to the Palace in four day's so that we could tell both boys about what was happening in four days and it allowed me to tell Myrridan all I knew about Draconis and what I expected him to do.
Myrridan seemed excited about meeting someone new at any rate. I have to be honest with myself as well as I, too, was excited about meeting Draconis and his Father, whom I had been told was a handsome Noble whose family line can be traced back for a few generations at least.
(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)
The day that Lord Malfoy and his son arrived had been the only time I had ever seen Myrridan ever willingly go to bed early and have a bath after only being told once. I must admit to already liking young Draconis and I haven't met him yet but I can't wait to meet him as well as his father. Draconis and his father were going to arrive at lunchtime so that at least gave me some time to organise what we would be having for lunch and getting some paperwork done beforehand so that not much will need to be done tomorrow, but I can only hope really. Myrridan meanwhile was currently running around, talking a million times a minute about what he wanted to do when Draconis arrived which included:
1) Playing on the playground.
2) Running around, getting into trouble, and
3) Doing both of the above at the same time.
Oh, well. What can one do when she or he has a 5-year-old energetic son who loved to explore and have fun.
When Lord Malfoy and his son finally arrived I had managed to get Myrridan to sit on the couch and wait, while I finished the stack of paper work that had been brought into the sitting room. Lord Malfoy looked just as I thought he would look like. He had long white/blond hair, hair aristocrat feature's, grey eyes and pale skin. He stood at 6'5 and carried around a cane with a snake head that I had been told, held his wand. His son had the same coloured hair and skin, was the same height as Myrridan. He has the same eye's as his father but instead of his father's confident demeanour, Draconis had a submissive demeanour as he was hiding behind his father. It showed how bad he had taken his mother torturing him if he was willing to hide when I had been told that he was a very strong-willed and confident three-year-old, just like Myrridan was.
I hoped to be around Myrridan will be able to reawaken his strong spirit, but only time will tell if this meeting was a success.
"Good evening, my name is Lucius Malfoy and I would like to say that it is an honour to meet the Queen and her adopted son, whom I heard is the missing Potter heir but renamed Prince Myrridan Altair Pendragon, after his Ancestor's, The Pendragons right?" Lord Malfoy asked as he took a seat across from me and Myrridan with his son still hiding behind him.
"Good evening to you as well Lord Malfoy. And you are correct about my adopted son being Harry Potter and I have told him all about his parent's and their sacrifice and the Wizarding World which is how I knew to contact the Goblin's when something was wrong with Myrridan and later found out about you and you're a son. How is he by the way?" I relied on/asked as I offered him a cup of tea and some biscuit's and my work was taken back to my office.
"Thank you. Draconis is still as silent as he has been since he works up and now wakes up screaming and begging the torture to stop and that he'll be good. I pray every day and night that I will find a way to help and heal my son but unfortunately nothing has 'jumped out at me' as you Muggle's would say, I afraid" he replied as he accepted the cup of tea but declined a biscuit.
"I see. Well, maybe Myrridan could help you with that. He has been looking forward's to meeting young Draconis since I told him about this meeting two days ago. Maybe we should head out into the gardens where the playground is set up and see if he can persuade your son to come to a play. It could be that all he needs is another child to play with for him to regain his spirit?" I suggested.
"Very well, but I'm not holding my breath about it working."
With that, the three of us, as Draconis never sat down, headed out into the garden were Myrridan immediately ran to the playground and started to climb up it as a monkey does in the trees. Draconis looked at the playground and Myrridan with a look of slight awe before once again hiding behind his father, but he would occasionally peek out from behind him whenever Myrridan let out a laugh of delight when he discovered something new, as I had ordered some new equipment yesterday after I had forbidden Myrridan from playing on it. He would do that every five minutes until he stopped peeking and just looked at Myrridan playing. He would look from his father to the playground and eventually after 15 minutes of doing this, he seemed to gain his courage and walked out to join Myrridan, who welcomed him onto the playground with open arms. Lucius smiled as he watched his son playing for the first time since the attack and watched him play for a good 10 minutes before he turned back to me and continued the conversation we were having about the many different magic school's there where is the world.
And so it went for the next two months where Lord Malfoy, just call me Lucius, would bring his now healing and playing son to the Palace where both would run around the playground until lunch-time and then have a little nap before going back to playing and exploring the Place grounds, being followed by at least three guards, not that they stooped the boys from having their fun.
Lord Lucius has become more open with me now that his son is happy and playing and has offered his help in helping me choose which magic school I should send young Myrridan to when he is older. I also suggested that he send Draconis; call me Draco, to the same school as well so that they both have a familiar face and a friend to be within a new, unfamiliar place.
I must say that I am not looking forward to the time when Myrridan is ready to leave me for school but I would deal with that when the time came to it.
Wow, again I found a lot of mistakes in this chapter and so I spent a bit of time fixing them. I honestly didn't even know about how many mistakes I had left behind and I apologise to you for having to read these two chapters and find all the mistakes that I left behind. Well, no more will I leave a mistake for you guys to find.
Thanks for the reviews, can't wait for your next review's. Until next time.
