Story Notes:

This is in AU, but I will do my best to have characters remain true to Canon.

This story takes place after Harry's 1st year- instead of returning to Hogwarts, Harry runs away. The majority of this story will focus around Harry's return to Hogwarts and his apprenticeship with Severus Snape. It may be angsty at times, but I really want to explore the relationship (no slash) between Harry and Snape as a mentor, guardian, and teacher.

This chapter is a little longer and less action-driven but it gives insight into Snape’s past and his own experience as an apprentice. We also start to understand Harry’s mind a little bit more.

Please please please review! I enjoy hearing your thoughts, reactions, and ideas. It helps motivate me to keep writing.
