[Harry Potter] Secrets

[Harry Potter | Marauders' Era Ensemble Cast | Moral Ambiguity | Beautiful Souls] "Even among the noblest Pure-blood families, there are names they would rather not mention." The story begins in London in the 1960s. Jemini Prince is a flawless pure-blood witch in every adult's eyes. As the only child in her family, she'll never have to worry about making a living or squabble over the family estate. She has friends her own age, and her only concern is how to convince her parents to send her to Hogwarts like her friends instead of Beauxbatons or Durmstrang... Until she discovers traces that someone else once existed in her home. That name earns her the harshest punishments, but nothing can stop her from investigating. She has to go to Hogwarts. There must be traces of Eileen Prince there. In the 1970s, Jemini steps into the common room, where a gloomy, aloof Slytherin sees through her disguise and recognizes that she has an unknown agenda. She deftly sends away the people around him, then stares into his dark eyes. "I'm here to return your property, Half-Blood Prince." Why did she only realize it now? This was the greatest trace Eileen had left in the Wizarding World. And she'll uncover even more secrets: about the people around her, and about the mysterious figures of the Wizarding World.
