Summary: The Battle of Hogwarts was lost, but after ten years of tyranny and terror, Harry Potter has finally defeated Voldemort. Slowly, those who suffered the most under Voldemort’s reign – the half-bloods, the Muggleborns and the blood traitors – emerge from their enslavement, literally and figuratively, seeking refuge and comfort and healing from a group of volunteers, organized by Harry’s friend Hermione Granger, working out of the half-ruined St. Giles-Without-Cripplegate Church. New friendships are kindled, laughter shared, and secrets spoken, and all the while a bell tolls. The final message from one man to another, whose deepest secret only now does he understand.
Warning(s): Rentboy; off-stage character death; and frank discussions of bodily functions, torture, grief, death and love.
Narrated from an unknown Muggle-born rentboy's POV. This is a story that will stay with you long after you've read it.
It's very powerful and intense. There is a warning for a Major Character Death, but being written as a narration of the happenings, it gives you the distance you need to read it without the pain of the death being too overwhelming.
It's not a happy story, but there's no denying it has some pretty amazing parts, sexy even, and powerful. I can almost hear those bells rining.
