1942 is a tumultous time in the wizarding world. The Muggle War is in full swing, Grindlewald is gaining power, and Tom Riddle is about to open the Chamber of Secrets for the first time. Children and adults have to deal with the Muggle War, as well as the war that Grindlewald is waging. In Hogwarts, students and professors alike are choosing sides in wars that are ongoing and about to brew. Everyone is terrified about losing those they love and losing themselves amongst the battles being waged.
The biggest problem facing those in this time is getting through another day unscathed, mere survival, with everyone attempting to live to see a new era.
