May 1998: Harry defeats the Dark Lord.


September 2017: Harry sees his children off at Hogwarts-
Wait, what?
That's about 20 years of history, missing right there. So... what happened between being just our of Hogwarts and having kiddies? Well, in the year 2006, a new minister of magic was voted into office: a woman named Anita Stone (NPC). Smart, attractive, and beloved by her supporters, no one really noticed when she started to let laws slowly go into play. After all, a decade had passed since any real evil had been around the wizarding world. What were a few little laws about members of the opposite sex living together before marriage really going to do?
The world Harry and his friends live in is changing: new laws and political powers are taking away the rights of 'unideal' citizens in the name of making a safe world for the next generations- a resistance is rising, but the powers against it are strong. People like Terry Boot have already had jail time for opposing the new system. When a bright future is close for the majority of the world...is a few people getting the short end of the stick really that bad?
Some support the laws- some don't. Are you a member of the resistance, or a follower?

It is the year 2001, and the Wizarding World has been free of the influences of Lord Voldemort for three years. Free, as far as they know. Many believed that Lord Voldemort had been killed at the Battle of Hogwarts, when he attempted to use the Elder Wand on Harry Potter and was rebuffed. The Wizarding World has lived with the safety of this belief for years. But they're about to find out that they're not as safe as they believe.

What no one in the Wizarding world knew was that Voldemort, aware that his Horcruxes were being hunted and destroyed, used the death of Severus Snape to create one last Horcrux. No one but he knows what the Horcrux looked like, and immediately upon its creation he hid it as best he could. Upon his believed death at the end of the Battle of Hogwarts, Voldemort was turned yet again into a roaming, bodyless soul. But this time, his Death Eaters were prepared. Aware of the newly created Horcrux (but not its appearance), Rabastan Lestrange immediately ordered his fellow Death Eaters to flee Hogwarts. The remaining Death Eaters gathered in Bulgaria, a country they considered a safe haven, and began their plans to resurrect their fallen Lord.

Now, rumors of darkness have begun to spread again. Rumors that involve dark magical acts being performed in Bulgaria, a sudden increase in the number of werewolf attacks, and a disturbing attack on the family of a young Muggleborn wizard. But there is one rumor that is even more worrisome. The rumor of a hunt for an object once thought to be only a myth. Because Lord Voldemort knows that with his diminished power, he cannot rise to take over the Wizarding World on his own. And with the loss of the Sorcerer's Stone, he has only one hope. An object rumoured to contain evils the world has never seen before. And object he hopes will turn the tides in his favor yet again. An object known as Pandora's Box.

According to mythology, Pandora's Box was a gift to Pandora by Zeus, who instructed her never to open it. Unfortunately, Pandora was also gifted with curiosity, and ultimately gave in to her desires and opened the box. As the stories go, by opening the box, Pandora released all of the evils, ills and diseases that humankind had previously not known. It is said that at the bottom of the box was also hope. Upon seeing what was inside the box, Pandora immediately closed it. And that was supposedly the end of the tale.

But the myths are not entirely true, or so the rumors say. Perhaps, Pandora's Box wasn't quite empty when she closed it. Perhaps it still contains powerful diseases, illnesses and evils that, while not as strong as those originally released, are still powerful enough to cause potent damage. It is this potential pain that has caused the darkest wizard in human history to seek out the box in the hopes of using its contents to further his gains of taking over the wizarding world.

Whether the box contains evil or not, one thing is certain. The Order of the Phoenix cannot let Lord Voldemort find it.

In the backdrop of an immediately post-war setting, there are young witches and wizards separated from each other via connections and acquaintances who must brave the new era of Life After the Second War.

Who prospers, who fails, who branches out and who stays locked up in the confines of their old traditions? And how much do their lives affect each other?

It's a small world, and no man is an island.
