Story Summary:
"It is a foolish man who does not recognize that times of war are uncertain. We will not fail to do what needs to be done, but there is no way to predict which way the tide will turn, or how fate may conspire against us. We must plan a way to protect those who remain: our loved ones, our allies, our children and ourselves." When those who stand against the Dark Lord are dealt a crushing blow, the war, for the time being, is lost. What will become of those who survived? A story of perseverance, hope... and love. (some aspects AU; story begun before the publication of HBP)
