PREAMBLE: Ten years after the horrific fall and subsequent death of Lord Voldemort, the Wizarding world is flourishing. With the newly canonized Harry Potter still ceaselessly hailed as a hero of war, and each suspected Death Eater having long since undergone extreme interrogation and trial, the imminent threat of Darkness has been seemingly extinguished. These are the golden years, a time of peace and alliance between all wizard kind. A time of commercial prosperity and thriving commerce, that is largely due to the steadfast leadership of the reigning Minister for Magic, Kingsley Shacklebolt. But perhaps things are too quiet, too tranquil. Lucius Malfoy, now quickly aging and in somewhat ill health, has paid his theoretical debt to society, and has personally sworn his allegiance to the Ministry and all magical beings within the United Kingdom. Upon his early release from Azkaban, Lucius lost no time in restoring honor to his family name. Credited with creating a great many charitable foundations that he sponsors and funds at his own expense, Lucius is regularly seen in the children’s ward of St. Mungo’s hospital, visiting with the ailing and delivering posh gifts. Indeed, even Narcissa Malfoy has become a frequent public figure of benevolence; often holding prestigious, grandiose Balls and Masquerades at the benefit of her husband’s numerous aid organizations. More quietly, the Malfoy family has instituted another type of establishment. A joint stock company known simply as the “Toujours Pur,” into which many formerly Dark associated families have bought. It is a furtive sort of company that very little is known about, except for the exceedingly public detail that it’s been buying up vast amounts of property and prime real estate. The Toujours Pur own nearly 50% of Diagon Alley, now. They own the illustrious Magisoft Manufacturing Company that has been producing WizPcs, they own flat complexes, they own and monitor the content of the Museum of Sorcery. They are on the very heels of a trade monopoly. And it is at this time that Harry Potter, together with those who are still too wary to accept the retired Death Eaters into society, intends to call for the first meeting that the Order of the Phoenix has seen in nearly eight years. |
