“It has been brought to this Author’s attention that the Magical Ton has returned to London for the start of the 1814 Season. While the enchanting displays of wandwork at Vauxhall are surely a delight, it is the drawing rooms of Mayfair that shall host the most ruthless duels. The Sacred Twenty-Eight have unleashed their heirs upon the marriage mart, and one must wonder: will the serpents of Slytherin charm their way to the altar, or will their venom poison their own prospects?" — Lady Skeeter’s Society Whispers, 12 April 1814 The formidable pureblood families of Britain turn their attention to the most terrifying battlefield: the London Season. The newest crop of Slytherin alumni are of age, and their parents expect them to secure the future of their ancient bloodlines before the summer wanes.
