Story Notes:
This story follows Canon Books 1-5 and an alternate sixth year. HBP never happened. Instead, A Year Like None Other, available on this site, took place. You're advised to read that first before starting this story, but in case you need the Cliff Notes: Harry got adopted by Snape, Draco turned to the Light, and then Snape adopted him as well. The Dursleys all died except for Dudley who lost a lot of weight and found his heart with the help of a talented therapist. So, Harry's got a father and brother now, plus a cousin he can stand. Lucius Malfoy died and turned to stone, and is currently installed at Hogwarts as a piece of statuary. Remus Lupin is currently impersonating Lucius Malfoy courtesy of some specialised Polyjuice Potion Snape developed.
Since Year was started before HBP came out, some other things in this universe differ from canon. In this universe, Snape *is* a pureblood and his father's name was Hostilian (which tells you a lot all by itself). Dumbledore never died, but Pansy Parkinson did, and Theodore Nott went to Azkaban for murdering her. Draco is younger than Harry, but only by a few days. I'm sure there's more but that's what comes to mind. Just remember, nothing that we found out in HBP necessarily matters in this story. And now, on with the show.
