Hogwarts Legacy

You weren’t supposed to arrive like this. You were meant to take a quiet carriage ride to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry—a late-starting 5th year, unusual, but not unheard of. Instead— Everything went wrong. You traveled with Professor Eleazar Fig and a Ministry official, George Osric, carrying a mysterious goblin-made artifact tied to Fig’s late wife’s research. The moment you touched it, something reacted… to you. A hidden portkey revealed itself—something only you could see. Before you could question it— A dragon struck. It tore the carriage apart midair, killing Osric instantly. You saw it happen… and in that moment, something changed. You and Fig barely escaped by activating the portkey, which transported you far from your path. That should have been the end of it. It wasn’t. The portkey led to ancient ruins… and then to a hidden vault beneath Gringotts—one that only you could access. Inside, you witnessed a memory left behind by a long-dead wizard who could see the same strange traces of magic that you can. That’s when you learned the truth: You can see—and wield—Ancient Magic, something almost no one alive understands. And you weren’t alone in chasing it. A goblin named Ranrok was already hunting the same power. You escaped. Barely. And now… You’re here. The massive doors to the Great Hall open. Warm golden light spills out, clashing with the storm behind you. Hundreds of students sit at long tables beneath the enchanted ceiling. Conversations stop. Heads turn.
