Hi everyone,

!ADDITION: I HAVE REPLACED CHAPTER 49: QUAMDIU VIXERIT ET ON 15 DEC 2012! PLEASE READ THE UPDATED VERSION!

Thank you for all the wonderful and positive reviews, pm's etc. It's been wonderful hearing what you all think.

I know I finished the story ages ago, but a number of people have been reviewing and sending me pm's with the same types of questions, so I am going to answer these now, to save me from typing out the same answers a million times.

Hermione and Dumbledore did not destroy Ravenclaw's diadem or Nagini because they didn't have to. At the time the story is set, these horcruxs were not created yet, therefore there was nothing to destroy. Trust me, I triple checked these kinds of facts before I even started writing the story.

Hermione did not become an animagus with the others because (a) Hermione had enough of a double life to deal with she didn't need the added pressure. I don't think her stress levels would have allowed her to become an animagus. (b) it would have complicated the plot to ridiculous proportions and I just cbf to do it

Chapter 18 (Non perfecto) where Hermione and Sirius are approached by the Slytherin's in the bar and they 'run away'. I know that it's not a noble or Gryffindor thing to do, but it was more of a self preservation thing. Hermione did not want any more trouble to deal with. That is why she and Sirius just left the bar.

I just have one quick request. A number of you have reviewed questions, but not given me any way of being able to reply, hence the above. Please, if you have a question, send any reviews/pm via your accounts so that I am able to click on your pen-name and reply, otherwise you'll never get an answer.
