As the days pass by, I find myself slowly starting to feel a sense of ease settling in. The downfall of Voldemort has brought about a shift in our world, one that is both liberating and daunting. The shadows of the past still linger, casting their long reach over us all.
My children, Draco and Seraphina, are trying their best to navigate this new reality at Hogwarts. It pains me to hear of the struggles they face - students whose parents were once loyal followers of Voldemort causing trouble for them. I wish with all my heart that I could shield them from these hardships, but alas, such is not within my power.
Draco carries a weight on his shoulders that no child should have to bear. His involvement in dark deeds during his time at school weighs heavily on him now as he strives to move forward from it all. My heart breaks for him as he grapples with the consequences of his actions and tries to find redemption amidst whispers and judgment.
And then there is Seraphina - bright and determined yet fragile beneath her facade of strength. She bears witness to the turmoil around her with wide eyes filled with both fear and curiosity. In her innocence lies a vulnerability that cuts through me like a blade; she deserves so much more than what this world offers.
I am torn between wanting to shelter them from harm's way and knowing that they must forge their own paths through adversity if they are ever truly going to grow into their own beings.
The echoes of war still ring loud in our ears even as we try to rebuild our lives brick by brick amidst rubble left behind by battles fought long ago. But despite everything - despite the scars etched deep into our souls - there remains hope. Hope for brighter days ahead where laughter will replace tears, Where love will conquer hate, And where my family can finally find peace in each other's arms once more. For now though...we carry on; carrying burdens too heavy for mere mortals like us but doing so nonetheless because we must... Because we shall rise again from ashes like phoenixes reborn anew Stronger Wiser Unbroken
