Harry Potter's fifth year is a storm of anger and isolation.
The Daily Prophet calls him a liar. Umbridge carves her cruelty into his skin. Dumbledore keeps him in the dark. Even his friends cannot ease the weight pressing down on him.
But one night in the Great Hall, the air shifts. Candles sputter, shadows twist, and a force older than prophecy awakens. In an instant, the Order, the Ministry, Hogwarts students, even long-lost faces are torn from their places and bound together beneath its gaze.
Mother Magic has summoned them.
Not to fight. Not to judge.
But to witness.
Visions spill across the hall - glimpses of a world that might have been, where James and Lily Potter's child was not a boy, but a girl. A daughter who bore the scar. A Girl Who Lived.
Her path is familiar, yet not. Her choices carve new scars, her defiance sparks different battles, her heart leads her down roads no one expects. Every soul watching will be forced to question what they believe - about destiny, about Harry Potter, and about themselves.
Because once the threads of fate are shown, they cannot be unseen.
❝you're the star i look for every night...
when it's dark you'll stick right by my side.❞

When she comes back for fourth year the following fall, she must learn how to navigate new unlikely friendships, romances, and the beginnings of war.
