It is 1975 and the Marauders have just started their fifth year. Outside the school Lord Voldemort is rising. The darkness that he wreaks is cascading itself over the wizarding world like a dark mantle. The Order of the Phoenix is having trouble keeping up and as for the Aurors...they are losing more and more every day resulting in more desperate changes to the Auror employment services. More are needed. Muggles and muggle borns everywhere are dying, begging for mercy and being shown none.
Albus Dumbledore has one of the hardest jobs in the world. It is his sworn duty that he protect the students of Hogwarts but equally he is shaken by the transformation of the boy he once looked out for in that little muggle orphanage. He is trying to protect the order but he cannot stop them dying, he cannot stop them risking their lives because they can't afford to hide away. They can run but they can't hide.
Meanwhile inside Hogwarts things are much lighter but equally more twisted. In Hogwarts things are considerably brighter as they are protected from the world outside. In Hogwarts the only war is the inter house rivalry and the competing championships of the House and Quidditch Cup. The students are aware of the darkness outside but they try and get past it. People are fooling around with other people's partners, failing to hand in homework and basically getting detentions for silly pranks. Or is that just the Marauders? Why don't you decide? Join us here...
Because in this world everything is a matter of life and death
