"I must not only punish but punish with impunity." This story is loosely based on "The Cask of Amontillado" by Edgar Allan Poe. It is also a sequel/prequel to my earlier story "The Evil and the Damage Done." It is not intended as plagiarism, I merely played around with the theme and bits and pieces of the plot, and it is only partly similar to the Poe story. It has also become rather AU due to the developments in HBP. But if you still enjoy pure-blood Snape...

Someone on WIKTT theorised that Snape had not gone back to Voldemort to spy, but instead to take care of the problem of the Dementors at Azkaban. That set this little plot bunny running around my head.

Horror and mystery abound.

Forever he painted his world in shades of grey, that color even more bleak and haunting that the sound of his beautiful, horrible music. Forever this grey surrounded him, so wretched, so despairing, and yet so wholly, horrifyingly, breathtakingly him. Draco was grey, in every sense of the word, from his mood, to his physicality, deep in his soul. The color could not be uprooted, so deeply was it entrenched in the muddy soil of his past life, thriving in the darkness that had, and maybe still now, consumed him, and growing to be a creeper so large and thorny that he was caged inside of it, perhaps inescapably.

After her first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Ginny Weasley is plagued by nightmares.

"Draco had seen similiar puzzles, of course, and had beat them all. But this was beyond anything he had ever seen before. The Frenchman had bought a perverse logic that was entirely his own. It there was a system to the puzzle, Draco had failed to find it..." ````Life as he knew it was not enough for Draco. He needed more pleasure. So he solved a puzzle that allowed him to experience pleasure no man had ever even dreamt of. But with exquisite pleasure would come pain beyond imagining. Who will help him escape?

On what may be the happiest day of Tom Riddle's life, he visits the grave of one of his victims for a lark. We learn that snakes are always unfailingly polite, that Tom likes to mangle Shakespeare, and that trite similies praising eye-color are not exclusive to fanfiction. Or, perhaps they are.

In the books we get a brief look at the character of Fenrir Greyback, but we never get a glimpse into his mind. Maybe, after all, that is a good thing.

Everywhere he went, he knew: if he just turned, everything would be all right.

What if Tom Riddle himself isn't really evil? What if he had made a mistake that had led to Voldemort's rising?

Reminiscing on times forgotten is becoming my habit now. Never was I to stay in a dark room, in a dark house, waiting impatiently for the next wave of torture, simply to forget what I’d lost. Here I am, rotting without purpose, without dreams or thoughts, my mind blank and disconnected from the rest of the world.

Tom-centric, AU. Now he reaches the altar, where that very same boy kneels asking for a forgiveness Tom knows he won’t find with his head bowed.
