Summary
"The Chamber of Secrets has been opened. Enemies of the heir, beware."
Harry didn't think anything could top the trouble his first year at Hogwarts brought, but the second seemed determined to do just that, with a mysterious chamber and a threat a half-century in the making rearing its head once more.
One singular Slytherin offers his aid in their quest for the truth, but the further they search, the further away the answers seem.
And why does Ling Yao seem more two-faced than ever before?

Summary
Harry feels like his third year at Hogwarts threatens to tear his life apart.
On one hand, he has an escaped murderer after him. The more Harry learns about Sirius Black, the more convinced he is that he has to personally catch him. Edward Elric strongly disagrees with that notion, and is going through extra lengths to ensure Harry does not cross paths with Sirius.
On the other hand, tensions within the castle skyrocket as, for the third year in a row, Ling and Lan Fan insist that something is wrong with Scabbers, Ron's extremely ordinary pet garden rat. Except now they claim to know exactly what the issue is, and it has become more urgent than ever.
The only thing that could make the year more confusing was if the serial killer and the rat were somehow connected to each other.
Featuring:
- Boggarts are not a trauma-informed part of the syllabus
- They're breaking out the conspiracy boards this time
- Scabbers vs Xiao Mei MMA
- Return of everyone's favorite Housewife™
- Serial killer penpals
- Way too many illegal furries

Summary
“The Dark Lord’s servant will fail to return… But that will not deter his rise… Evil from a forgotten past will make its move… joining forces with the Dark Lord. Not as servants, but as equals the Dark Lord does not recognize… Each believing they are using the other… Vices of the human soul, marked by the immortal serpent, they will bring about calamity on the day the moon swallows the sun.”
The prophecy hangs over Harry's head as his fourth year begins. The more he tries to make sense of it, the more illusive the details seem, and the strange dreams aren't helping matters.
The Triwizard Tournament brings its own slew of trouble, especially when it selects a fourth champion. Powerful figures begin to make their moves.
And somehow, Amestris is at the center of it all.

- The Master of Fiendfyre
