Read Today's Daily Prophet: Knights of Walpurgis attack Hogwarts; Belleford steps down as Hogwarts closes until further notice
Welcome to Hogwarts Interactive Role Play, one of the net's best in Harry Potter and Hogwarts role plays. We hope you enjoy your visit.

Here at Hogwarts our students are currently in their Seventh Year. Last year, the war against the Knights crescendoed into a direct attack against the school. Disappearances are still reported (or not) daily, and the Dark Lord and his Knights of Walpurgis have succeeded in spreading their message of "do as thou will" far and wide across the globe. Magical Law Enforcement, which is now the only authority in the wizarding world under Martial Law, has responded by tightening security, controlling the media, and strictly enforcing curfews and other laws. Their control is damaging to the people's freedom, and their hierarchy is a suspicious lot. It is clear that some members of the MLE like their new found power a bit too much, others see it necessary, but all are in serious danger of being consumed by it. But with the picture of just what Azariah Amaranth is after becoming ever clearer, and a third player in the form of a group called SAVIOR entering the scene, what will the MLE do next to ensure that they've got the situation under control?

The Elementium, the Higher Plane that had once been hidden just beyond the veil in the Department of Mysteries, and the Deathly Hallows. The pieces of the puzzle have been identified, but what picture do they make?

Today is Day 1 of Year Seven. Students have had time to recover from the Knight's attack, and are beginning to reluctantly return to the walls of Hogwarts. The safety of the school has been diminished, bringing up the question everyone must ask. Are you safe anywhere these days? It's up to each individual to decide their fate, where will you decide to go?

If we see a man glorifying his race, gender, or creed, we can understand there is nothing about himself that deserves glorification.

Useless cattle! Flauros hissed in a harsh tone.

"Perhaps you're over reacting?" Hellius pondered, noting the lack of response coming from the entity in his head. Sighing to himself and slowly stumbling towards the lake in casual black muggle clothing, the boy mumbled to himself for feeling a sense of loneliness. While he never is alone... Hellius felt the emotions and he desired something, but he was unsure of just what.

Taking a seat on a cliff overlooking the lake, he hung his feet over the edge and fell back to lay down. Placing his hands behind his head as a pillow, Hellius stared at the sky and the various stars that were just beginning to appear from the depths of darkness. The moon was just entering a new moon phase, and all that was present from it was a tiny little sliver. Focusing on it for a matter of a few moments, his eyes soon closed and he began to think over the past year; over the things that occurred, relationships that were abolished.... and created. All the happenings: Injuries that were sustained, and the painful memories that will continue to haunt the boy for as long as he may live. His family (especially his mother) hid secrets that he never knew about before - that disturbed him. Sighing and completely relaxing, he tried to fall asleep, but he found that he couldn't.

Do you want revenge? The leech boomed.

Hellius clutched at his head and threw his feet downwards, knocking loose rocks from the side of the cliff off and down towards the water. He could feel physical weakness coming to him, but it was building up slowly. He was slowly and steadily... dying.

The darkness is your power, boy... It is where you will thrive....

Hellius rolled up into a ball and turned onto his side. He felt colder and weaker with each passing moment.

And where you will die.

The darkness surrounding the night had consumed everything. The sun was over the horizon and all that was left was the scarce source of moonlight from the tiny sliver that hung overhead. The grounds were silent and calm; no source of any disruption was evident. Little ripples had finally ceased to flow through the water, and the Black Lake was as calm as the night itself. One little thing seemed odd on this dark night; one thing almost blended in through the darkness, but the glowing red light gave it away. No one would've noticed it, but alone in the darkness lay the body of Hellius who was slowly breathing; calm enough to draw rabbits to gather despite his presence. The boy was cold and weak, but he kept persisting despite the lack of care either way if he passed.

Hellius....

He was unstirred by the voice. He lay there unmoved.

Awaken....

Hellius finally stirred, awakened by the voice at last. The red light had faded away from his position and he was now thoroughly camouflaged in the dark of the night. Sitting up and looking down at the reflection of the seamless lake below, the boy took a deep breath to take in his surroundings. In a way, he felt different - more intelligent, powerful, resourceful. He pondered it for a brief moment, but let it pass. The boy was in no mood to be bothered by wasteful tasks, and sitting there doing absolutely nothing wasn't helping either. Rolling backwards and to his feet, the community of rabbits scampered away to the forest some distance away from him.

Hellius looked around, unknowing of what most have happened. He didn't care, and as long as he felt well, it was great for him. Adjusting his jacket and placing his hood over his head, the boy walked back towards the castle and soon entered; leaving the grounds.

Professor Aphelion made his way through the double doors of the Entry Hall and stopped at the foot of the stairs, the moonlit grounds before him. He turned and waited for the two boys to join him.

Julian stood atop the stairs and waited to hear what menial task they were to carry out, his hand resting atop his wand like a sword.
Are you my next victim? Are you my next prey?

Upon entering the grounds, Hellius stood off to the side at the top of the stairs and listened for the next set of directions. He wanted to get this over with...

He eyed off both the boys as they stood waiting to be told what to do. He took the few steps over to stop in front of them, "Now the pair of you need to sort out your differences or else we're going to be back here again, and not one of us wants that. I have far more interesting things I could be doing." His mind flashed to Adelina, stifling a smirk, before continuing.

"Both of you are confident and talented young men and it seems a waste to spend your energies fighting one another. Surely there's something you can do get along? Some common interest?" He let them ponder the notion for a second, "But in the short term I will settle for a lack of open hostilities. You will shake hands and apologize and then follow me to the edge of th Forbidden Forest."

He stood waiting to see if they would comply.

Hellius blinked in a disturbed fashion. What the professor was asking was like murder at the current moment. Trading glances between the professor and Julian, he noticed a lack of activity from the Slytherin. Sighing and looking away towards the Forbidden Forest, the boy figured that they wouldn't get anywhere at this rate. He crossed his arms, feeling anxiety, but groaned after the lack of movement. Reaching his hand towards the Slytherin, Hellius gave Julian a suggestive look of 'do it so we can get this the fuck over with'.

God damn.

Julian had no desire to touch the hand of a filthy blood traitor but could sense the obvious recipricosity in feeling that Hellius too was experiencing. Taking pleasure in his discomfort, Julian shook the proffered hand, "I'm really sorry, Hellius. I hope we can be firm friends in the future." Julian's voice was litereally dripping in sickly sweet mockery, eager to further disgust the Gryffindor.

Nate nodded, satisfied they could at least for now get on with the task ahead. "Right. Follow me then." Nate made his way to the edge of the Forbidden Forest and stepped through the leafy foliage that formed a wall.

His mouth twisted in a sadistic smirk, Julian followed the Professor.

Hellius returned nothing in a reply; just shaking Julian's hand was enough to make him disgusted. Retrieving his hand and wiping the palm onto his shirt, the boy looked to the professor with an annoyed expression. "Oh yes..." he returned ironically.

Gonna have to burn this shirt...

He followed the professor as they exited towards the Forbidden Forest.
