It's close to the start of the Harry's fifth year when he receives a mysterious letter on his fifteenth birthday. The contents, strange and confusing claims that his true parents were not Lily and James Potter.

This starts a series of events that reveals not only a fifteen year old guarded secret, but one that is much, much older. One that changes not only Harry's life forever, but Professor Snape's and Lucius Malfoy's as well. It's the start of something new where enemies become allies and allies enemies.

    I love the musical aspect of the elves! And a harp is a wonderful instrument-I've always wondered what it is like to play one--I play the Violin.

    Wonderful chapter. Thanks for posting.

    I believe I have said this before, but I will say it again-you have a gift for painting beautiful images with your words. From the early morning in the book stacks to the rain - amazing. I shall be interested in how the relationship between Draco and Saturn matures. It's all to new and kind and sweet at the moment (although I would expect nothing less!) I am sure there will be some "welcome to the real world" types of bumps along the way.

    And you have LUNA!! I love Luna and look forward to more of her presence in the future!

    Thanks for the update.

    Another wonderful update!

    So, with Luna as his "friend" ( and apparently more) will he at least be able to befriend Nev again? That is, if Draco doesn't cause more issues!

    Thanks!

    Poor Saturn! While he may not "be" Harry any more, some things don't change as easily as a name (or even an appearance!) The saying "old habits die hard" is very true. Harry will protect first, even to his own detriment, he will not think to ask for help first(if at all) because that has never been available to him (besides Ron and Hermione). I hope Sev and Lucius realize this and don't take it out on the poor boy to badly.

    So--If his patronus was his dad "prongs" before the change--is that wonderful bunny patronus the form of his "new" father--Lucius?

    Loved it.

    So, as James said "Q" and the only one not included in "code names" at this point is Alexander--does that mean that Alexander is the new Q? Q has always been a favorite of mine in the James Bond series!

    Author's Response: Yep Alexander is Q from Skyfall I love the idea, by the way have a virtual cookie for getting that right. thank you for the review.

Left with partial paralysis after being tortured by Voldemort, Severus is sent to Bell Point, a secure location on the seaside owned by the Order of the Phoenix. However, he is not the only one who will be there, for Harry, refusing to express his emotions regarding Sirius’ death, has unknowingly invoked an ancient kind of magic that will force him to deal with them. Deaged to four years old, he has to contend with a bitter and broken Snape, who, like Harry, is being forced to live in a body that does not work the way it used to. These two vastly different people have beat the odds many times over, and somehow prevailed in a world that has tried time and time again to destroy them. But the challenges they now face are nothing like they’ve ever seen before. Will they rise to the occasion, or become prisoners within themselves?

Eileen Snape. His mother's name. Everyone at the table turned and looked at him as if he knew exactly who she was. Well Severus didn't. But the last thing he needed was for someone to believe he had abandoned his own progeny or that this girl was a cousin or niece or some other crazy notion. - A Severus becomes Harry's guardian story with a side of OC.

    Author's Response: Thank you for the compliments and the review! I hope you keep reading!

It’s another normal evening for Harry Potter, serving detention in the dungeons, that is until he notices water at his feet… water that keeps getting deeper. Harry never expected Hogwarts to flood, or that Severus Snape would come after him when he’s swept out of the castle by the ever present water. A story in response to the 'Natural Disaster At Hogwarts' Challenge by Whitetail.

    Wonderful chapter. Thanks for the update.

    So, What's in the water? The room/openings are probably to small for the squid. But other than that--We know there are Merfolk in the lake, also grindilow (sp) and other trouble makers. But based on this flood, it could be something else--Selkie could be fun--especially if they are able to help. What about an Abaia--that could even help explain the flood. . . but I'm guessing you already have that planned out. A Fossie Grim probably wouldn't be much help--could cause a bunch of trouble actually. And, I suppose if you wanted to wanter into Arthurian legends, It could be the Lady of the Lake. So many choices? Just what will you choose? I am most currious.

    Thanks again for the update.
