When I was a child, my grandma used to tell me stories. At the time, I never gave them much thought. Thinking they were just that… stories. Growing up, I soon realized that they weren’t lofty fantasies and fairy tales but memories of her past, memories of our ancestors before our world turned to sh*t. You see, what comes from legend, no matter how exaggerated the story becomes, there is always a sliver of truth. You just need to weed out the fiction from fact. My grandmother used to tell me stories of the Chosen One—the one who would save us all. When I was younger, I used to believe that what she said was true. Eventually, someone would be born, just as the Oracle predicted—someone who could save our souls and bind us back to our magic. Once I grew up and saw the world unfolding around me, I no longer believed in salvation. The chosen one seemed to be more of a prayer than reality. Some dream we wanted desperately to come true. Something in which we needed to find hope when there wasn’t any left. When our ancestors turned their backs on us, how were we expected to believe in this so-called salvation? Especially when all we witnessed was death and carnage ever since the great war. Nothing except pain and poverty. I used to believe the stories and used to pray for the mysterious chosen one that would rid our world of its evil. Now, though, I see it for what it really is, just a dream of hope. Some out of reach fairy-tale. A story to create hope. Hope is dangerous; it makes you believe things will get better. I stopped hanging on to hope when I witnessed firsthand that it caused nothing but heartache.

One morning, ordinary girl Kathy woke up and found that not only was she a little girl whose soul had been transported to England, but she was also shocked to discover that she was living in a parallel magical world where there were no monsters, the plot was chaotic, and the timeline was all messed up. When she finally managed to integrate into a peaceful life, a familiar owl delivered the admission notice to Hogwarts, and it turned out that she was a member of the wizarding family. As a new student, Kathy was enrolled in the Ravenclaw College. From the surprise of learning about her parents' concealment of their wizarding identity upon her arrival, to the despair of getting hopelessly lost in the maze-like stairs and changing stairwells at Hogwarts; from accidentally forming an "employment service" friendship with the lively Harry to witnessing his traditional yet unique argument and confrontation with Malfoy. In Potions class, she had to deal with the pressure from the strict Snape professor, while in History of Magic class, the entire class was entranced by Binns' hypnotic lecture. Even more wonderfully, Kathy discovered that she was exceptionally talented in the Charms class and was jokingly called "the genius girl" by the Gryffindors. Apart from studying, the campus life was equally exciting. She was involved in the "Powering Hogwarts" grand plan led by Harry and dominated by the Gryffindors. In the secret and responsive house, she and the students from each house (even including the Slytherins who came to "challenge") embarked on a hilarious technological adventure. At night, she experienced being watched by portraits while doing the employment service, and accidentally walked into the kitchen, witnessing a wonderful scene where students from all four houses gathered together to steal midnight snacks. The Christmas holiday dinner at Harry's house allowed her to witness the "affectionate" interaction that had continued from her parents' generation.
