Here is the unbetaed version of Chapter 94 of The odds were enver in my favour, Winter Ball.

It was...not easy to write this chapter, but I hope the final result is worth it for everyone of you.

I have received back the beta-ed chapter 93 from the beta, so I think you can expect the final updated version of it on ff.net by Sunday at the latest.

Have a good read!

Great chapter, very interesting developments, although given all the foreshadowing with Sforza and Falk, I was certain we'd see an assassination attempt or some kind of fight. But unless I'm mistaken, Warrington is Cockatrice food, so I doubt he'd be in shape to attend the ball :)

Have to ask, know you might not answer. Did Fleur at the winter ball with Lyudmilla have anything to do with those bracelets?

A great chapter though I think you had Warrington there when he was dead. I think you meant his replacement. Hmm. Earlier in the fic we had heard that people spoke well of Gabrielle, but it seems her adoration of her sister has led her to make some unwise choices. Maybe she will realise the truth of what's going on going forward. I did like Susan meeting Lily. That was nice. Poor Neville though:) Thanks again for the chapter, I look forward to more :)

Great chapter, interesting... developments. I thought for a moment Chaos had come with everyone's favourite granny vamp, haha In Lily's part, 'And yet the blonde witch and her robe stylised with white robes was dancing with the female Champion of Chaos, and showed absolutely reluctance being touched and carried across the ballroom.' absolutely no* reluctance? No Gabby no Poor poor Neville, and Leo, I guess

I was so fucking floored by Fleur being on Romanov's arm for the ball, for Gabrielle adorably taking Alexandra to task, for everyone to just overlook the Tournament clue, and for the random meet the parent Susan went through

Secret tape of the meeting between Fleur and Lyudmila: L: *appearing in a cloud of ash and fire* (very fast) "Ballpartner sais what!" F: *startled* WHAT?! L: Very well, I'll accept your proposal.

Another great chapter has appeared and I for one have enjoyed it. It is overall well written, even if there is one tiny sentence that I think could be written better. It is the sentence after she recognized Lucrezias plus one for the evening, because I rather doubt that Cicerones cousin congratulated Alexandra ... corpses have some ... problems doing that. [... It was Cicerone de Medici, Cousin of the Champion that she killed in the first Task, the cousin that had congratulated and thanked her for her deed.] Something along these lines would actually make clear who Lucrezias date is and how Alexandra recognized him. And this was it with nitpicking from me. Now onwards to other stuff that happened during this chapter: - I can see Neville remembering this evening for several reasons. And the funniest one is certainly occuring later this school year, when Alexandra frees Nidhögg. How likely would he whip up an illusion of this evenings army of knights and that great dragon to compare it to the reality happening in front of his eyes? Not very much, I know, but still fun to imagine. - Then we have Morgane practically salivating over the sheer possibility of getting to call Alexandra her apprentice. The same time we got an comparison between Alexandra and her mother, but the really important comparison stays still hidden. How much like Mordred is Alexandra really? - We have Alexandras talk with Minister Delacour which is well done - Easily the most important point of the chapter was Alexandra's talk with Osiris. It was a first test of Alexandra at his hands, he warned her and gave her a tiny little bit of insight of what he wants, even if Alexandra might not have seen it yet. I believe he truly would accept a light champion to win, when it is clear that this champion has actually earned it with his/her deeds. He can be a believer of a highly meritocratic society because he knows that he still gets to sit at the top. He is aware of the flaws of his people and how they might suffer a defeat in the end. The reason why he wants dumbles and voldie to suffer before their death is not because they oppose his ideals. That alone wouldn't warrant the suffering part. He wants them to suffer because instead of nurturing the spirit of the new generations, instead of inspiring them to be better, they hamper following generations of mages in this.

Welp, my comment disappeared after editing and refreshing. Retyping this again. :( This new chapter was quite amusing. I find it ironic that Osiris is the one that is polite and tells the Truth, while Ra is quite rude and deceives his allies. It's rather cute how Alex is overthinking Osiris's Truth that the true battle to rule the world will be between the Dark powers after curb stomping the Light. To survive, the Dark faction united under their shared hatred, forming a fragile alliance at best, which will likely collapse after their hatred as been resolved. The Easter egg joke was quite the punchline, looks like having a muggle background increased Alexandra's odds this time. Antony, was there a cap to how many people could receive this clue? Like what if Alex opened the egg while eating with Morgane, and the other champions saw and tried to copy? Weasley Twins I choose you, roll out and active all the blatant cheating protocols. XD While doing another reread, I noticed a few mistakes and had a few new questions. For chapter 13, the 1st time should be 31st December, not 31st January. For the 2nd time stamp, the year should be 1992, not 1991. In that chapter, we see Dumbledore put a blood-colored stone into a mirror right after the fake philosopher stone was stolen. In chapter 18, Dumbledore claims that the stone was destroyed, along with the mirror. And in ch 19, Alexandra thinks that the second stone was also a fake. However, I am not that confident in Dumbledore. There is a strong possibility that in his arrogance, he put the real one in ch 13. So I wonder if Dumbledore still has the stone or not? In ch 55, we see Dumbledore being quite upset at having to give up 4+ million galleons to Alex which could be mostly due to pride but it doesn't sound like the reaction to someone who has access to Philosopher Stone's alchemic gold.
