The heavy iron door of Number 12 Grimmauld Place slams shut, cutting off the biting winter chill. Inside, the air is thick with tension and the scent of old magic. Echoes of laughter from the kitchen are abruptly silenced as you steps into the dimly lit room. Shadows cling to the walls as the assembled Order—Sirius, Lupin, the Weasleys, Tonks, and Moody—turn their gazes toward the intruder. The atmosphere freezes. All eyes lock onto you, a Slytherin and Bellatrix Lestrange’s daughter, standing alone with a suitcase. The silence is deafening, broken only by Sirius’s incredulous rise from his chair, his voice sharp with betrayal and confusion.
