Summary
She lost her magic slowly, at first.
It started as a creeping deadness somewhere low in her abdomen.
It spread outward like necrosis into her chest and her head and her limbs. She had no recollection of when, exactly, it had begun.
~
Hermione has made a name for herself in the Order as a gifted inventor of spells. As the war careens into its seventh year, she fights to keep Harry alive by developing a potion that strengthens his magic to the detriment of his physical health. Wracked with guilt at his rapid deterioration and desperate to save his life, she risks liaising with Draco Malfoy, the head inquisitor in Voldemort’s secret police force and a talented but dangerous Legilimens. Her risk does not go to plan, and after enduring months of brutal captivity, she loses her capacity to do magic.
To her dismay, Malfoy now seems to be her only hope of regaining her former ability.
A dark, slow-burn war AU about trauma, recovery, and reclamation of feminine power

Summary
Hermione Nott had been left in the care of The Hopewell House for Girls upon her birth. Her mother left her to be raised by the matrons who ran the orphanage. But everything changed when Nott Senior showed up to retrieve his daughter, only to pass her off into the hands of Narcissa and Lucius Malfoy.
This is a retelling of The Harry Potter Series with Hermione being a half blood. She is the product of her father, Nott Senior, and his detestable acts as a Death Eater during the First Wizarding War.

Summary
Hermione sets out on a path of vengeance after a deeply devastating betrayal. With her promise to Harry to end the war no matter the cost, she turns herself into a weapon even the Order fears, dead set on ending Voldemort once and for all. Alliances are struck, prophecies take shape, and the tides of war turn as the Valkyries take flight and the fate of the world hangs in the balance. After all, some prophecies really do come true, just not in the way you think, but be forwarned for all who enter, here there be monsters as doomsday approaches.
