    Summary

    There is no silence in pain — only the echo it leaves behind.

    A ritual is stirring in the shadows — whispered in ancient runes, traced in the blood of the dead. Auror Moira Darkwood, once the Hero of Hogwarts, never wanted to return to ancient magic. But the victims of a string of killings all share one thing: her. They stood too close. They saw too much.
    To stop what’s coming, Moira turns to a boy she once loved and a man she helped condemn — Sebastian Sallow, freed from Azkaban for one last task.
    Together, they chase the pieces of a plan centuries in the making — one that promises a world without suffering.
    In the ancient ruins trembling with echoes of power, Moira must ask what it means to heal a wound — and what must be sacrificed to close it for good.

    Some pain must be carried.
    Some truths must be faced.
    And some magic demands a price.
