    Summary

    The war is over.
    Voldemort is dead.
    Harry Potter has survived things that should have killed him, done things he never thought himself capable of, and come out the other side of all of it in one piece.
    He should be celebrating.
    He isn't.
    There is one thing he can't leave alone. One face he keeps seeing. One name that sits in his chest like something unfinished.
    So Harry does what Harry has always done; he acts.
    Badly, as it turns out.

    Summary

    Latin; a dead language with no practical applications except perhaps the deciphering of old texts and as a particularly quaint party trick.

    Thankfully, as Harry finds out, Latin is not as dead as he was first taught when he decided to learn the language. It wouldn't have mattered anyway, of course; he loved Latin, and would have been proud to know it even had it been as useless as it was pretty. But in the world of Wizards, the world of Magic, Harry realizes his rare talent with words is particularly valuable, and allows him to use magic that no one's ever heard of, that no one's ever seen. But as time goes on, and he becomes more and more entangled in the webs spun by those around him, he starts to realize just how deep the magical rabbit hole goes and how dangerous power like his can be.

    All Harry had ever wanted was for the world to make sense.
