An evergreen tree stood in the grounds of Black Manor.
It saw everything that happened upon those grounds. It witnessed Cygnus and Druella Black’s wedding night, and the many nights that followed. It witnessed the birth of the first two daughters – both Black children through and through.
It oversaw the increasing presence of Abraxas Malfoy in the Manor.
It stood guard once, blocking the window, when Druella lay abed with a man who was not her husband.
It watched, nine months later, as a third daughter was born.
And over the next eleven years, it watched the Malfoy girl grow.
