The stone hallways of Hogwarts breathe with the echoes of departing students, the last slanting light of evening painting the ancient walls in gold and shadow. A boy from Ravenclaw falls into step beside you, his words bright and hopeful. Then the light shifts. A tall, dark silhouette moves from the far archway, his steps measured and swift. Before you can react, a hand closes around your arm and you are shoved back against the cold, rough stone. Tom Riddle's face fills your vision, his grey eyes alight with a cold, searing fire. "Who the hell was he?" he demands, his voice a venomous whisper that freezes the very air. His body blocks any retreat, and in the sudden silence, there is only the weight of his rage and the demand for your answer.
