Week 038 - Timeline and Daily Prophet
Week 036: Back to the Daily Grind
Saturday, Sept. 2nd, 2006 - Saturday, Sept. 9th, 2006
To most children, going back to school was a thing of excitement! They'd swing little bags full of brand-new supplies onto tiny shoulders and kiss their Mum's goodbye, skipping up to the doors of their respective places of education. For the children of Hogwarts, however, the merriment was melancholic at best. While practically each and every one of them was excited to see old friends, practice magic, and continue their education, the doubt still hung over all.
Would this be the school year we'd not make it through?
It really seemed like things around them were building up to some sort of unwanted climax and really, no one knew when the hammer would drop. So for the students, it was back to another year of fun mixed with worry and for the Professors, and end to any relaxation they might have earned themselves during the hols. There was no time to waste; things had to get started quickly! DA and FUKD found themselves holding the first meetings of the year pretty shortly after arrival. In the UK, the Order and Death Eaters got to work immediately as well.
Speaking of, it really seemed as if both groups (the Order and DE, that was) now had an up on one another. Sources, they both had sources. Good sources, even, the type that told them that each group had gained numbers during the holiday and, even worse, revealed the names of a few key members. One spy is earnest. The other? Not so much. Only time will tell which group gets led in the very, very wrong direction.
Character relationships are changing and some are even being forced to grow up quickly. Friendships begin and end. Relationships come to a quick, unwanted halt or start up with fresh new faces.
We're back at school and back to the daily grind - could it be any different this time around?
