FORWARD (Once again, please skip if you just want to read the story)

This is a story I had a hard time remembering. While I vividly remember both Wizards, Aliens and the Chamber of Secrets and the (sadly) unfinished Wizards, Aliens and the Goblet of Fire stories, I struggled to remember many of the plot beats found within this one. That isn't to say it's bad, in fact, I probably blame the fact that this is the middle story between a strong opener I'd occasionally come back to reread and an ongoing far longer story that topped the previous two in both chapter and word count despite not even being half finished (if my estimates are to be believed).

I give this story credit though. During my light proofreading there were far fewer errors that I encountered, though my PC loved nagging me about a certain term being used incorrectly, that being 'The Pandora'. However, I just proofread the stuff that was highlighted, as I wanted to enter this story with a mostly fresh mindset. So, much like anybody new picking up this fic, I will be going in mostly blind, and I hope I enjoy the ride.

Thank you for taking the time to read this ramble, and please enjoy Wizards, Aliens and the Chamber of Secrets.
