Chapter 1: The Dark Lord’s Final Lesson

England, 1995 – Malfoy Manor

The silver moonlight cascaded over the black marble floors of Malfoy Manor, casting fragmented shadows. Under Voldemort's reign, this place had become the center of dark magic, where Death Eaters conspired their next moves. A chilling aura, like the hiss of a basilisk, permeated the air.

Inside the grand hall, Death Eaters in black robes gathered around a long table. On the throne at the center, Voldemort's pale, corpse-like face bore a sinister smile, his crimson slit-like eyes gleaming ominously in the dark.

"Tonight, we shall witness the dawn of a new order in the wizarding world," Voldemort's whisper slithered through the air like a serpent's tongue, caressing the ears of all present. "That meddling boy Potter… and his insufferable phoenix shall meet their end."

Beside him, Bellatrix Lestrange licked her lips with excitement, while Lucius Malfoy kept his head respectfully lowered, not daring to meet the Dark Lord's gaze.
