The oppressive industrial smog that had been choking the city of Berlin for the better part of a week finally began to dissolve and disperse under the blessing of a full day's worth of sunlight.

The atmospheric pollution that had transformed the sky into a sickly yellow-gray canvas, thick e...

0724 The Request

"What is it you wish to request, Hayne?" Bryan's voice cut through the gentle rustling of leaves.

His gaze was fixed upon the Vogel family's house-elf, and despite the seriousness of the situation, his tone was calm almost casual.

"Hayne knows that Young Master Adam and Miss Jasna hav...

0723 The Tale

"Miss Jasna is master's great-granddaughter—"

By the gently rippling Rhine River, beside the creaking windmill with its spinning blades, the house-elf Hayne spoke in a voice heavy with melancholy.

Bryan's gaze fell upon Hayne with intensity, the vertica...

0722 Ideologies

0721 Their Talks

"Hmm, Dumbledore?"

Seemingly drawn by Bryan's words into long-buried emotions and perhaps painful memories, Anton Vogel—a man who appeared to be merely a breath away from crossing the veil between life and death—began coughing violently. The tremors shaking his body made one worry they ...

0719 Visiting

"Where in the world are, we?" Louise gasped, her voice was trembling with a mixture of confusion and barely contained panic.

0718 Intrigues

In the cramped living room of the cottage, the atmosphere became oppressive in the deafening silence that followed Bryan's unexpected words. Kingsley stared intently at the stone-faced Bryan, his lips moving slightly as if rehearsing words, yet eventually producing no sound. Through the subtle ch...

0717 Berlin

0716 Gringotts

Unfortunately, when Bryan arrived at the Parisian headquarters of Gringotts, he discovered that the goblin B...

0715 Suspicions

"How much money have you borrowed from the goblins lately, Ludo?" Bryan asked with a hint of teasing in his voice, though his eyes remained sharply observant, studying Ludo's reaction.

0711 Reasons

Hearing the critical words from the Muggle girl who stood bathed in the white daylight streaming through the doorway, observing her pale face that appeared almost translucent in its paleness, Bryan raised his hand to stop the restless Kingsley.

Bryan stepped forward, his expression solemn a...

0710 The Vagrant (LARGE-CHAPTER)

A bone-chilling wind suddenly wandered through the desolate, forgotten courtyard, carrying with it the faint scent of decay and abandonment. The waist-high weeds bent reluctantly in the breeze as the cold air diluted what little warmth remained contained in the increasingly pale, weakening sunlig...

0707 Shame

When the golden, warm sunlight pierced through the narrow gap in the closed curtains and fell upon Louise's forehead, gradually moving down across her long eyelashes, the contrast between intense light and shadow of her room caused a sense of discomfort in her drowsy state. With a slight flutter ...

0706 The Chat

Click!

The sound of the door latch engaging was soft yet clear in the hushed atmosphere of the hotel room. Kingsley gently nudged Louise's elbow before leaving and thoughtfully closed the door behind him for the two people in the room.

Silence fell upon the space betw...
