What a promising and intriguing premise! I'm off to eagerly read more!

OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!!!!!  You have me so totally hooked!  My heart is racing right now, wondering what happens and where you're taking this.  This alternate reality you've created is utterly ingenious, and the way you weave those differences into the story is so nonchalant in the writing of it yet completely shifts the paradigm of the Potterverse.  I can't wait to see what comes next. 

so I was right.Something happened. Hermione is in a different universe - if  I can call it that.History is rewritten.Is it a parallel universe, or ar there two time zones corresponding, holding a silent conversation.This is thrilling.how did that happen.What will be discovered.magic magic magic.A matriarchat not a patriarchat.What else has changed in this world.she doesn't recognise Snape. So everything is erased in her and everybodies mind?So curious to read on.thanks for sharing!

What in the world? This story has turned surreal, like some wizarding version of Alice in Wonderland, where everything is topsy turvy. But instead of only seeing one way in, who is on the "other side" can see out, too.

I am astonished at the ease with which you interweave the two threads of this story. Would that I could write like that. Am I jealous? Hell, yeah! ^_^

can I just say what a pleasure it is to read this again. I'm enjoying all the little details and savouring the nuances knowing where it's going this time round. I loved the idea of the cloak being woven into the building to protect it and presumably hide it from view.

this is thrillingyou put Hermione in a rather odd world.What has happened?where is she?what is going onyou are writing from 3 different positions and time "zones" as I understand?will there be more?curious to read.thanks for sharing!!

am very much looking forward to follow this story, well done, very intriguing. the "decorations" are pretty, did you do them also?

Squee! This is so favourited

This is really intriguing. I agree with Severus49's review. Hermione's story line seems to involve the Ministry butting their noses in where they don't belong and somehow screwed with Lily's life so that she didn't end up marrying James and Harry was never born. I'm not sure yet where that puts Voldemort. I like how you focused on Helga. Not many people do. I see a lot of Salazar in SSHG stories and sometimes Godric, but not a lot of Rowena or Helga. I also like how you've portrayed Salazar and Godric as lovers. That's sweet and it makes it so much more sad, knowing from canon that they were close and then had a major disagreement about muggle-borns and stopped being friends. (I think I'm remembering that right). I'm glad that this is a finished story and we'll get regular updates. I'm really looking forward to how this gets resolved.

This story seems to have three separate lives, like threads in a tapestry. I know they'll all come together to form a bigger picture at some point, but right now it's too soon to tell. I've read one imagined story here - the story of the Founders; one unknown story - of Hermione and of a Professor Evans that strangely reminds me of Lily; and one familiar story of Severus during his short tenure as Headmaster. But which thread will end up the one that weaves the final story is the real question.

Wow...that was one of the most imaginative and original stories I think I've ever read. :)

The chapter description says this is complete. Please tell me it isn't and that there's more to come. Please? It's a fascinating and exceptional story and leaves you hanging -- wanting more. ^_^

Excellent story.

Such a wonderful treasure. To see the canon universe expanded so masterfully into a realm of much greater possibility has been an absolute joy. Thanks so much for sharing this classy, beautifully written work of art.
