Only this chapter, and the next, then the Grindelwald arc will be done, for the most part.

Also,  I did not intend to give the impression that the Voldemort arc will be immediately resolved. It won't, and you will see why soon.

Anyway, enjoy.

Just curious, roughly how many more chapters is this story expected to be? I'm loving the ride so far but the confirmation that the Voldemort arc won't be quickly and easily resolved is quite disheartening. Harry letting Tom live and doing nothing about it beyond some trolling, thus allowing it to become a bigger problem later on is exactly like Dumbledore's actions regarding Grindelwald in this story. Harry not nipping it in the bud (maybe during the summer away from Hogwarts/witnesses, and Tom can fight back, he's not an unarmed 1 year old baby like Harry was) is extremely short sighted and silly of him. It's as if he wants to keep fighting after the Grindelwald arc ends lol. Just my 2 cents, I love everything else about this story.

Yeah, I have less issue with Harry not killing a child, even knowing what he becomes. I do think he should have been more proactive around Tom Riddle over these last few years when he became a teen and started performing negative actions, but leading a nationwide war against a dark lord is as good an excuse as any for not following through. I too am somewhat dismayed about the Voldemort saga playing a bigger role. I will certainly wait to see how it finishes before making a final decision, but it just seems like we’re tacking on the “B” plot of this story in a way to make it way more important than it should be.

Yeah I guess Harry didn't know about the two kids that were tortured in the cave. I don't remember though if these were explicitly specified as Harry's reasons for pulling a D'dore and doing nothing about Tom (this story has gotten quite long!) I understand he's quite busy and distracted with Grindelwald, but he could've taken a quick "road trip" on one of his many visits back to Britain (ICW meetings, seeing Minerva etc) lol

This was a super fun chapter to read. I am really looking forward to the end of the Grindlewald arc.

I can see Hagrid's loyalty shifting from Albus to Minerva in this chapter. Lovely to read!

These A/N’s always give me anxiety. You say that we’re going to find out why Voldy won’t get solved right away and all I can think is that you’ll kill harry with Grindelwald and shuck the prophecy onto Rosa (She was also born at the end of July if I’m remembering correct?) I really want both dark lords to die with Minerva, Harry, and Rosa all alive. Break my heart or not this is a great story either way.

It's curious that things are going to wrap up in the next chapter or two. We didn't see much of Grindelwald at all, or anything that would indicate a confrontation is close by. I guess with a time skip, it makes sense. Or maybe the entire next chapter will be devoted to Harry and Grindelwald, rather than going to Minerva/Tom/etc. Either way, this has been an incredible story and I can't wait to see how you wrap it up.

Great chapter but why is Arcturus in the meeting with the generals, it is supposed to be reg cause i know you like him so do i but he is not a second in command, also excited for the last chapter of the war.

Brilliant chapter as always, but I'm really worried about Tom and what he has cooked up. Also, your comment about how the Voldy arc will not be resolved immediately has me concerned for Harry now. I'm still shocked Albus never showed up once. I mean even offering words of wisdom, but as anyway thank you for the chapter Mr McCusker and I look forward to the next one..

I’m glad he’s taking this route. Honestly i want to see how things will change for Tom with Harry being in his way. Also I think trying to kill him as a child could possibly lead to Harry being labeled as the Dark Lord of the prophecy between them. Fate is a bitch.

What happens to Aragog?!

Yeah, maybe a time skip of the mountain drilling and then we enter the final battle where Grindelwald defends?

That's the worst cliffhanger! No wedding, no tunneling... I love this story - I love all your stories - but could you get on with it and release the next chapter, please 🥺

Hopefully he gets eaten this time. Last time Hagrid still managed to let him escape and he made it to the forest. This time Minerva took him there to let him go.
