With the capture of Verandi Farley and several high-ranking Trossach members, the British wizarding world has finally caught a break. The rate of rogue werewolf attacks have started dropping at a steady rate and, hopefully, things will stay that way. The Ministry is starting to loosen some restrictions, like not arresting werewolves standing on the street for loitering, however there’s still an obvious power imbalance between wizardfolk and werewolves.
The Cotswolds pack are continuing to advocate for the rights of werewolves and petitioning to change the legislation that has been set in motion by the current Minister for Magic, whilst the remaining Trossachs members are trying to stay out of the spotlight and keep a low profile… for now.
Whilst the British wizarding world seems to have calmed down, the same cannot be said for over in Northern Europe where a rebellion of magical creatures has risen. The state of things has gotten so bad that the European Ministry has enacted protocols to protect those under eighteen whilst their adult witches and wizards fight to keep control of their countries.
Students from Durmstrang have been sent to Hogwarts to keep them safe and those not old enough to attend school have been sent to live with relatives or designated British Ministry officials outside of Europe for the time being.
Will the low rates of werewolf attacks in Britain continue? How long will Durmstrang students stay at Hogwarts? Will the creatures usurp the wizardfolk in Northern Europe? Only time will tell.
SEPTEMBER 2019 It's been a very long, eventful summer in the wizarding world. A baby was stolen, several high ranking Trossach members were imprisoned, and werewolf attacks have drastically dropped as a result. What will happen now school has returned?

HISTORY
- Growing up as a Young, Mara felt like she had a reputation to uphold. Even in school she felt like she was in the footsteps of Ryker and her brother Elijah. Because of those two she lashed out, Mara started to rebel to show them that she was there too. That not everything is about the twins and she would continue this until this very day. She doesn't hate them but she surely isn't happy to see them either. Mara feels very much like the child that her parents never wanted and it's why she has no issues staying away.
- Mara loves camping and so when she went on a camping trip with her back then friend Peter, she was having a great time. Of course the werewolf attacking their campsite was anything but fun. She got bitten in the leg and she was sure the wolf would tear it off. If another howl didn't make it curious she feels like the wolf might have killed her. After that she disappeared for a while, away from her friends.
- Mara has been traveling the world and even hid for a while in Greece but when she ran into Peter again she felt beyond happy to see him. Of course she thought he was dead and ever since she found him again even by accident, she has been by his side. They travel together and protect each other now.
Time came and went, it was both frustrating and peaceful. The slight ticking sound of a clock having their own rhythm. It had it's own beat, tick tock every single time and repeat. The beat was simple and known to every soul because a beat like this was heard by every single person in the world. No matter how poor or rich everyone knew the ticks and tocks of the clock.
It was an actual clock that Scorpius had been staring at for quite some time. Truth be told he didn't even know how long he had been staring at the clock. The clock was ticking and tocking loudly to the young boy's ears as he waited for his owl to return from delivering a note to his dear mother.
If anything Scorpius was a family kid, he loved his parents equally and strongly for all they do for him and have done for him. He was loyal to them as he expected them to be loyal to him in their own way. Scorpius tried to honor the name but he honored himself as well and he was not like any other kid.
His blood status meant nothing to him. Scorpius had been curious about it for sure, he had studied his blood hoping for a result that would explain why some people considered themselves better than another, but he couldn't find such reason. He couldn't really find anything that signified why he was supposed to be better than someone else.
Scorpius snapped out of his thoughts when the sound of a crackling fire came from his bed. The boy was seated on the floor, staring at the clock, but moved slowly from his seated position to check on the noise. There was note with slightly burned edges on his bed. The answer from his mother.
With a sigh he got up on his feet, used his hands to adjust his uniform to the perfectly neat and well representable state, his hand went for the note and slipped it into his pocket before heading out of his dorm. Scorpius thought about maybe picking up something to eat from the kitchens before visiting his mother.
Scorpius was not aware that anyone would want his attention purely because he hasn't spoken to any of the people he was friends with in his own house. Suzie wasn't here, she would have made her presence well known if she was and his mother wouldn't be in the common room but yet the touch of hands on his shoulders, the little amount of pressure drilling through his skin and bones made him jump up ever so slightly.
It was easily noticed by the person who touched his shoulders that way and the boy quickly turned to face the one who did so. Please do not let this be a girl, was all that ran through his mind but his bright blue eyes met a male figure, definitely older than him and his name had slipped Scorpius's mind at that time.
"Me?" his voice had a hint of fear but his posture was still strong and not as nervous as he felt on the inside. The boy rose his eyebrow a little bit and cocked his head curiously. "What could I possibly help you with?" the curiosity had taken over his other senses, Scorpius was after all a young boy and he didn't have many friends.
"If this is about homework, I will not ask my mother to do you any favors. That is quite a horrible approach to the subject she teaches." his eyes were a bit stern.
"Not to mention very obvious, why would a second year care about higher level charms he surely wouldn't be able to perform anyway?" Scorpius then realized it might not be about the subject, maybe the boy approached him for his own attention and talents.
