Morgana sighed once she was in her bed, it had been a long day. Before Valdis went through the ritual he said he want to take his middle as first and first as middle, so his name now was Marvolo Valdis Gaunt-once he was 17 that is. She would have to get use to Marvolo, he want to be closer to his magical side than muggle. Though she was quick to kill his thoughts on the muggle witches and wizards, saying they didn't know better and no one was helping just accommodating. Marvolo would sleep till late the next day, just in time to pack his trunk for the train ride the next day, if her Mother didn't already do so.

"Lady Magik I hope this changes your vision." The redhead closed her eyes tight in prayer before turning over to her side and going to sleep as silvery sand floated around her head.

Marvolo was very sore, and he could not remember why... Then all of a sudden his pain left. He cracked his eyes only to quickly shut them from the sun peeking into his room.

"Is the Mister up?" A squeaky voice from his side reminded him of the event of the last few days. He groaned in a very un-Marvolo way, not that he would ever admit it, he didn't know whether to hug the redhead or kill her.

"Oh Tisky is sorry for waking the Mister! Tisky is very sorry!" Before she could go on, Marvolo rolled to his side and spoke.

"No Tisky, it's fine I need to get up." Speech slurred from sleep he wondered how long he slept for, the little house elf seemed to read his mind.

"Oh Tisky is happy to do something right and wake the Mister up! Tisky was told to tell yous that yous needs to get ready, yous goes to school today." The little elf bounce around the room making sure everything was packed and that his robes were ready for him, they would floo right to the station so he did not need to dress in muggle clothes.

"Tisky do I have enough time for a bath?" Rubbing his face as he rolled his form into a sitting position. His green bed sheets feel to his waist showing the room his bare chest, the cool air waking Marvolo up. The elf made a noise before her ears flopped in conformation, sighing he grabbed his clothes and headed to the connecting bathroom, the elf popped away to alert the Lady Mistress that he was awake.

Morgana was talking with her two ravens, Memoria and Mens, the only constant presents in her life. The two were a mated pair that were twice the size of normal ravens, and three-times the cunning. Mens with his red eyes and Memoria with her blue looked after Morgana like their chick, after she saved them from a hunter many, many years ago.

"Mens, Memoria do you think I should move the castle back to the realms?" She ran her hand down the silky back of Mens' who was sitting in front of her while Memoria preached herself upon the redhead's shoulder.

"This one thinks many are not ready to truly live in the realm, they are safe here in void." Mens spoke the dark tongue, titling his head in thought, beak clicking together at his mate, calling her.

"This one thinks differently. It is time for them to face their fears. To many years of hiding be safe in realm." Memoria said as she hopped to stand beside her lager mate, clicking her beak when he did not move.

"To many years hiding, yes. Hiding is good live this long why go into open. We are of the dark not light. Work from the shadows!" Morgana watched the two, they were the one to watch her followers while she was gone, they knew them better than her.

"Yes, hiding good for short while but, not long term plan. We must take land back, show light that we will not hide in the darkness, bring shadows to the light! Light has taken too much, balance needs to be restored!" Listening for a while longer to both sides before making her choice.

"I think Memoria is right Mens." Sighing she began writing the letter to tell everyone what would happen during the winter months. "If I am going to take my place in this world then I need my home in the realm. I do not want others to learn of the void." The two hopped over to their perch, talking all the while. Tisky popped into drop off some tea, and tell her Marvolo was up and bathing.

"Your birds are making a racket." Marvolo said as he strolled into the study, it was covered in shelves that were full of books.

"You say racket, I say they are speaking in the many tongues." The redhead did not look up from her letter.

"They are not say anything." Red and blue eyes turned to look at the new person in the room, before taking flight angered by his words.

Not snake or human makes you think we cannot talk! Mens called out to Marvolo in parseltongue, knowing he would understand.

Younging had much to learn. Meet you at the large school, young Mistress Memoria followed her mate, the flew around the room before making their way out the charmed window.

"How in the..." The young man was surprised, after all he did not think other animals were as smart as snakes.

"Ravens and snakes are two of the more intelligent non magical animals in the world, crows and ravens can hiss like snakes you know." Not once did she look up at him. "Tea?"

"No thank you." Marvolo looked at the woman, why was she helping him? What did she get out of it?

"If you have a question now would be the time to ask. I have a full load of classes along with assistant teaching duties to attend once we leave, I will have no time for personal chatting." Once again he thought of how well she could read him crossed his mind.

"Why did you, and still are, helping me?" Making himself comfortable on one of the chairs before the large oak desk.

"Dumbledore." The one word, to her, explained every to him, was only half the reason.

"Explain." Closing her eyes, he set he hawk quill down to final look at the young man, startled at the change in the man before her. He no longer looked the half starved boy from before, his body was filled out, he was a few inches taller, his hair had more of the red highlights, and his eyes. They were no longer dark brown, they now were the deep green of his ancestors, his face held more of the pureblood structure than before. After blinking a few times, Marvolo smirking all the while. He did not know why he like her reaction, or even half the feelings he was feeling once he awoke but he was going to go with it for now and think about it later.

"I should tell you my full name, seeing as I know yours." She had talked with Merlin about this Arthur wasn't so sure but, in the end, yielded to the older man. It took all of Marvolo's control to not smirk in victory. He watched as she gracefully rose and made her way near the fireplace, she stood in the typical pureblood fashion while she was wearing the school robes it seemed a little small on her frame,

"I am Morgana Lilith Le Fay, healer, leader, and first person to wield magic in history along with Merlin." She bowed low at the waist, one arm in front the other behind. As she rose she reached out as if to grab something, and something she did, a large dark grey staff appeared in her hand, the staff was the height of the woman holding it. Looking to be burnt ash tree, it twist and turned toward the top, a large stone known as Alexandrite was held by tendrils of the wooden staff, allowing the gem to give off many colors it is known for. Marvolo could even make out some silver designs along the wood.

"I have returned because, Dumbledore, is throwing the world out of balance with his light is good and dark is evil idea, he is spreading it to others." Marvolo could feel the magic coming off the woman before him. Her mind told him she was not lying to him, trying to wrap his mind around the fact that the woman was one of the most powerful people in history was before him.

"But does this have to do with me?" Morgana softly smiled before turning her staff back into the wand that was hidden up her arm.

"All in due time."

Marvolo was quick to find his compartment, the redhead followed him for a moment before taking the area next to his, again she threw his a smile which in turn made his heart skip a beat. As he sat waiting for the others to arrive, his thoughts once again drifted to the redhead. Morgana, she did so much for him, he never thought he was special. He thought he would have to change the world to get others to see him, but she looked to him as if he was already doing so, as if he was special. He could tell she was not giving the full story to why she was helping him, but she had done so much already he would not push. Yet.

"Tom, there you are." Morgana heard the Malfoy heir call before she closed her compartment. She had a lot of paperwork to go over, she was going to be Professor Merrythought's student aid for the next two years. Merrythought was the teacher four DADA, even though she was rather old she could still kick all the students butt's in a duel. The papers Morgana had were all the notes of Prof. Merrythought made, telling her what she expected from the young witch.

After a while Morgana had to stop, there was only so much she paperwork she was willing to look through before she hit her limit, and she had hit it hard. Rubbing her head she leaned back into the over stuffed benches, hoping to rest until they reached to castle.

OOFFF! Youssss hurting me! She heard the call, it was almost to faint for here to hear, but she just caught it.

Marvolo was surprised when the door was jerked open by the red head. The dark look she was sporting, along with her magic made her look like one of his dark fantasies. She level the look to him.

"You come with me now, I need your help." She grabbed his hand and drug him out of his seat.

"Where are you taking me?" Marvolo allowed her to drag him along, he never seen this side before. Well he has only see her for three/four day so he didn't have much to go on. Morgana only took him two doors down, she turned to look at him.

"I think there is a snake stuck somewhere and I need someone everyone will listen to." She then once again opened the door with more force than need, and he could now hear the cries of the snake.

"Oh you again. Come back to take up my offer?" That made his blood boil but he pushed it back. Looking at the back of the redhead wondering why she hid her power, looking in he saw the red and gold ties, he saw why she need his help.

"You three should learn to respect your betters. Now leave go back to the Gryffindork part of the train. This is snake area." He level his coldest glare, along with flashing his perfect badge at them. "I can start taking points off, I know what house you are in."

That made them move, once they were gone he watch as she tore off the covers and there it was. The snake was small, it looked to be a ordinary constrictor but the diamond pattern and head told a different story.

Little one are you okay? Marvolo asked the snake as Morgana gently pulled her from the space she was in.

Yesss. Thank your mate ssspeaker. The snake was surprised at the fact he was talking to her, the two humans lightly blushing at the snake. Neither wanting to look at the other.

Ssshe is not my mate! Marvolo say a little too fast, and the snake just looked to him.

Hmmm

"Wait how did you know she need help?" He looked to young woman fixing the damage she caused.

"Really Marvolo, I have two ravens as familiars I know parseltongue." Mine ran though his head.
