Summary:

Harry Potter is dead. In the aftermath of the war, in order to strengthen the might of the magical world, Voldemort enacts a repopulation effort.

A little behind on posting my 2023 reads, but this was the last fic of 2022 I read and the first one in 2023 that I finished and by golly gosh who knew that in 2022 that I’d add not only Drarry but Dramione to my list of OTPs.

Definitely a must-read because how this story is built is so well done. The middle part, where it revisits the past and how they got to the part in the beginning and subsequently leads up to the end. It is difficult and violent at times but there is an image in my head where Draco is coming to save Hermione and he solidifies in my mind as a bad ass and I think of that moment often.
