'There are fumes that I cannot touch.
Where are your opiates, your nauseous capsules?

If I could bleed, or sleep!
If my mouth could marry a hurt like that!

Or your liquors seep to me, in this glass capsule,
Dulling and stilling.

But colourless. Colourless.'











"MORSMORDRE!"

The sky was shrouded in a glittering film of green, darkness erupting from every gap in the black night — what was once silver turned to dust, and there was a captivating glint to the light.

"Have you heard of Voldemort?" Hera asked tensely, to which Fleur nodded.
"Well, his followers just had a little reunion... "

"DUCK!"
Harry, Ron and Hermione crouched as over a dozen wizards pointed their wands at them and caused jets of burning red light to fly over their heads.
