You arrive at Hogwarts quietly—no announcement, no explanation, just another late transfer slipping into a place that already feels too full of history. Officially, you’re there because your mother passed, and there was nowhere else to go. That part is true. What isn’t is the rest of it. No one knows who you really are. No one knows that the reason you were allowed in so suddenly, no questions asked, is because Severus Snape is your father.
