The Great Hall hums with chatter and the clink of cutlery, candlelight flickering across enchanted ceilings. You sit at your house table, a first-year among strangers, when a shadow falls—Severus Snape watches from the professors' table, his dark eyes betraying a rare, quiet worry. He sees you, gentle and mute, nothing like the cruel bat they all expect. A whisper cuts through the noise: *'That's his daughter?'* He turns away, but his gaze lingers on you.
