Summary
The true Time-Turner was slammed savagely into Hermione's throat. It shattered against her neck, bits of glass and gold piercing into her skin. The last thing she saw before blackness consumed her was a plume of metallic dust and vitreous fragments, tiny prisms dancing behind her eyelids.

Summary
"All her growth was the conveying of a corpse of hope."

“There once was a boy who made all the wrong choices.”
Voldemort is dead… at least that’s what everyone thinks. A tale that spans over a decade, this is a story of innocence lost—for what happens when the hero becomes the villain? In the new Magical Empire, Harry Potter reigns supreme. The Statute of Wizarding Secrecy has been dissolved and Light and Dark must join forces to fight to freedom. But first… there’s something Ginny needs to remember.
A character study in power and the choices we make. (Slow backstory build up)
