The Hermann Chronicles

by Fairfield

58 Ratings, 0 Likes, 22 Favorites )


    This tale is for readers interested in adventures and perspectives that a canon character could not reasonably have.

      Is the House Cup a rigged game? Is Hermione Granger delusional? Is Harry Potter a bad thing? Is the Order of the Phoenix incompetent? Is the need for a hero a sign of society on the verge of collapse? Can an ordinary student betray everyone?

        The beta was lisa725 from Perfect Imagination. Lisa corrected the punctuation, offered encouragement, and made several good suggestions. Thank you, Lisa.

        Working as the Ministry’s new Keeper of Records turns out to be not quite what Hermione Granger had in mind. It’s … well, dull, dull, boring, and possibly – no, very definitely – dull. She has a mountain of information at her fingertips – a log of everything officially recorded in the Wizarding world – and most of it’s, yes, dull. Then one day, a filing cabinet sticks, and her busy brain notices the smallest clue, one that will have her and Severus Snape struggling to uncover a conspiracy that, if true, will tarnish the Wizarding world’s golden post-war view of itself forever.

                First chapter summary:


                    Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel;

                      Their horns were black and shining and their hot breath she could feel.

                        She saw the riders coming and she heard their mournful cries,

                          Trying to catch the devil's herd across the endless skies.

                          Set in the time of Voldemort's first rise, this is a tale of choices and consequences, darkness and light, love and hatred, laughter and tears, and of trust and betrayal. Lily Evans, Severus Snape and Peter Pettigrew each provide a piece of the puzzle and, by telling their individual stories, the whole is revealed. By the time we reach that fateful night in Godric’s Hollow, we learn that truth is neither black nor white, and that we are all vulnerable to evil.
