PrologueHospital. Maternity ward.
A plump grandmotherly looking woman with short white hair, stood at the viewing window of the Maternity ward. On the other side there was a single baby wrapped in a blue blanket. The child was asleep and a single word was written on the nameplate at the childs feet: Cromwell.
From down the hall a tall man approaches. He stood at six foot three inches tall, and had long red hair hanging loosely down to the middle of his back framing his face. His eyes were a serious looking emerald green and a long jagged scar ran along the left cheek.
His name was Jack Cromwell and he was the father of the newborn child. When he was close enough he said "Hello Aggie. How are you?" in a gruff voice. "Hello Jack. Im doing alright. I came as soon as I heard." replied Aggie. With a suddenly sad expression Jack said. "I cant raise him sis. His mother just died due to complications in child birth, and you know how the elders are about these kinds of relationships. They would never allow me to keep him."
"I know Jack. Which is why i have been talking to some friends of mine over in England. If you are willing, there is a family willing to adopt him. The family name would of course have to be changed from Cromwell to the adopted parents name. I trust this wont be an issue." replied Aggie.
"Of course, as long as he remains safe that is all that matters. Just out of curiocity what is the familys name." asked Jack. "Their name is Potter I believe. They are friends with my friend Augusta Longbottom. She has a son two years older than this little guy here." said Aggie. "Hmmm. James Potter. I think that will make a fine name." replied Jack as he took one last look at his son. Suddenly Jack looked to the ceiling and said. "Damn, the Elders are calling. It was good to see you again sis. I'll leave the arrangements for James with you." With that Jack disappeared in a swirl of blue and white dots with the sound of windchimes.
