It was done, the light had won and the world could begin rebuilding. It would never be a perfect sort of peace, and there were still a lot of Death Eaters out there, needing to be caught. Despite this, Hermione begins to look forward to a world without war. One where she can be her own person, separate from the Golden Trio. Will this fragile peace really be able to last?

The wizarding world has seemingly returned to normal. Voldemort has been dead for over a year and people are reclaiming their lives. For Hermione, everything seems to be moving like a dream, and it seems almost unsurprising when things begin to crumble and a new war seems to loom over them.

"Nobody deserves to die alone. Not even you, Malfoy." Draco Malfoy is diagnosed with terminal cancer and has been informed that he has one month left to live. Wizards are not supposed to get cancer, but he is dying from it and must come to terms with that fact. With Hermione's help, he may be able to accept his impending death.

Perhaps the war was never won and what everyone thought had been a victory was just the beginning.
