Summary
A short-lived series of private lessons took place after Christmas in Harry Potter's fifth school year, during which Severus Snape attempted to teach Harry the skill of Occlumency. The lessons were ultimately cancelled when Harry was caught prying into Snape's memories, discovering the strangest things: A mysterious prophecy connected Harry's fate with Voldemort's, Harry's dad was an insufferable bully, and Severus Snape had been in love with Harry's mum. Naturally, Harry now has a million questions. Snape would prefer to answer none.
The world is full of obvious things which nobody by any chance ever observes. The same question arises in every soul: "For what, for whom, must I kill and be killed?"
...Or, a classic approach to stubbornness.

Summary
In the forest, Harry died—but not for the last time.
Given a choice by Death itself, Harry learns the life he lived was never meant to be his. Hidden beneath layers of magic, manipulation, and lies, he was denied his truth. Reborn as Hadrian Snape, twin to Severus, heir to the Four Founders and House Prewett, he steps into a new world already brewing with shadows.
Armed with knowledge, power, and purpose, Hadrian refuses to let the past repeat itself. He trains, protects, and prepares—especially for Severus, who deserves a future free from pain. But the world is still full of secrets, and one of them wears the face of Regulus Black, a boy too young and too clever, who might be the soulmate Death promised.
And in the dark halls of Slytherin, Bruce Mulciber watches Severus with unfamiliar eyes…
One life ended. Another begins. And this time, he writes the story.
