Chapter 8 - New Era and Old Traditions

Stella's First Days at Hogwarts

Stella Lestrange looked out the window of the Hogwarts Express with both excitement and determination on her face. The dazzling charisma of her mother, Bellatrix Lestrange, and the intelligence of her father, Rodolphus Lestrange, gave her the assurance that she would do well in Slytherin. Sitting next to her was Stella's closest friend, Alecto Yaxley. Both of them believed in pure-blood superiority and were determined to continue that belief at Hogwarts.

Alecto Yaxley: "Stella, there's no way we're not in Slytherin, is there? No one in our family has ever gone to any other house."

Stella Lestrange: "Of course, Alecto. Slytherin is our destiny. Being there is the only way to gain true power and wisdom in the wizarding world."

When they arrived at Hogwarts, the excitement in the Great Hall was at its peak. Stella's heart was pounding during the Sorting Ceremony. When the hat was placed on Stella's head, she quickly ran through her thoughts: determination, courage, family honor. The hat made its decision without hesitation.

Hat: "Slytherin!"

Stella took her place to the applause of the Slytherin table. She felt a great sense of pride and happiness. Meeting Professor Tom Riddle was a significant moment for her when she attended her first class.

Professor Tom Riddle: "Welcome, Miss Lestrange. I have high hopes for you."

Stella sensed a deep knowledge and mystery in Riddle's gaze. This was only the beginning of her journey at Hogwarts.

Heinrich's Education and Plans

Heinrich Grindelwald-Potter began an intensive education at Potter Manor with his grandfather Charlus Potter and grandmother Dorea Black Potter. Charlus and Dorea taught him not only about magic, but also the political and social dynamics of the wizarding world.

Charlus Potter: "Heinrich, you cannot shape the future without understanding the history of magic. As you attend the meetings of the Wizengamot, you will see how wizarding society functions."

Dorea Black Potter: "You must also learn the traditions and rituals of the old wizarding families. These are vital to maintaining your pure-blood status."

Heinrich began attending the Wizengamot meetings with Charlus. At these meetings, he gained valuable information about the political parties and balance of power in the wizarding world. Here, Heinrich observed the different factions and leaders of wizarding society and shaped his future plans.

Albus Dumbledore, Wizengamot President: "Mr. Potter, it is a pleasure to have young Grindelwald-Potter here. The new generation is the future of wizarding society."

Heinrich took these words with a deep sense of responsibility. He was determined to forge his own path, combining the teachings of his grandfather Gellert Grindelwald with the political wisdom of Charlus.

First Contact with the Muggle World

Heinrich believed that understanding the Muggle world was as important as the wizarding world. So he began to learn about the Muggle world. Charlus and Dorea taught him about Muggle history, culture, and technology.

Charlus Potter: "Heinrich, the Muggles are not our enemy. Understanding them can make wizarding society stronger."

As Heinrich learned about the technological advances and social structure of the Muggles, he began to think that the Muggles could also be useful, although he did not abandon his pure-blood beliefs. This would play an important role in his future plans.

Other Characters' Point of View

Alecto Yaxley

Alecto was happy to be in Slytherin with Stella during his first days at Hogwarts. However, in Tom Riddle's classes, he was amazed by Riddle's teaching style.

Alecto Yaxley (Thoughts): "Professor Riddle is not just a teacher. He is a guide in the magical world. Following his teachings will help us master magic."

Charlus Potter

Charlus was proud of his grandson Heinrich's talents and ambition. He also supported Heinrich's interest in the Muggle world. Understanding how Muggles could contribute to wizarding society would help Heinrich develop a broader perspective.

Charlus Potter (Thoughts): "Heinrich could be a stronger leader in the wizarding world if he understood Muggles. Their technological and social structures could inspire new innovations in the wizarding world."

Dorea Black Potter

Dorea taught Heinrich the traditions of the old wizarding families to help him establish his place in the wizarding world. She also supported Heinrich's interest in the muggle world.

Dorea Black Potter (Thoughts): "Heinrich is doing the right thing by learning about the muggle world. But he must not compromise his pureblood values. He must maintain that balance."
