James Potter is still in pursuit of Lily Evans’ heart in high hopes, but he is rather confused by her words from their previous year. His best friend, Sirius, isn’t helping either as he constantly messes up James’s chances. What’s a sixteen years old wizard to do? [L/J.]

It was a time of terror, a time of panic and confusion. It was a time when death and pain ran rampant, and shadows sought to destroy the Light. It was a time when friends and family feared for themselves and for others. It was a time when Darkness threatened to overcome the Wizarding World. It was a time of death ... but also a time of life. It was the time of the First War.

It begins where it ends. In nothingness. A nightmare born from deepest fears, coming to me unguarded. Whispering images unlocked from time and distance. A soul unbound - touched by others but never held. On a course charted by some unseen hand. The journey ahead promising no more than my past reflecting back upon me. Until at last, he reach the end. Facing a truth he can no longer deny. Alone, as ever.
