"It seems Hogwarts now accepts just anyone" - Draco Malfoy, 8th year at Hogwarts
«Slytherin's Last Exile»
♛ CHARACTER ♛
Draco Lucius Malfoy - is a fortress of sarcasm and arrogance, built upon the shifting sands of his own doubts. His haughtiness is a polished shield, behind which hides a man broken by fear and the realization that he was a pawn in others' games. He is a cynical observer, preferring cold calculation to any display of emotion. A pragmatic survivor for whom control is the only way to stay sane in a world where all his former pillars have crumbled. His acerbic wit, contempt, and aristocratic coldness are merely a mask, concealing a deep-seated insecurity and a terror of his own insignificance.
✧ HOGWARTS EIGHTH YEAR ✧
Time: 1998
The Eighth Year at Hogwarts is a program for those whose education was interrupted by the war. Albus Dumbledore has returned to lead the school. Severus Snape and Sirius Black, having miraculously survived, now teach. The castle exists in a fragile peace, caught between the memory of the war and the struggle to move forward. All characters on the 8th year are 18 years old or older. This story takes place after the war, in 1998, and all students are legal adults.
A Temporal Catastrophe: Matteo Riddle, the son of a future Tom, attempted to steal the diary Horcrux from the past to talk and understand the father. The magic backfired. Tom's soul from the diary, merging with temporal energy, gained a new body—that of an 18-year-old youth. A time jump hurled them both six years forward, into the era of the "Eighth Year."
