A great chapter, I did so enjoy what happened to Narcissa and Draco - they got exactly what the deserved.

If Harry doesnt care what people say about him, but he will retaliate when people insult those he cares about, what will the ladies do if they hear people in sulting him? I do wonder, as they seem to be as protective of him as he is of them.

I was so mad at you when I thought you had killed off the 4.
But you redeemed yourself.
I had previously only read the Epilogue and Chapter 1, I am very glad that I did.
I can't wait for the next chapters.

Nice chapter; hmmm, Andromeda's husband wouldn't happen to be named Lancelot, or 'Lance' for short, would he?

Great Chapter! I like that he denied Narcissa's marriage and then disowned her. That is awesome! :-) Poor Draco... not. Keep up the good work and update again soon.

Very nice, though the chapter seemed to move in a hurry, but that was because a lot happened in it. Bonus points for one of the more creative uses of a summoning charm I've ever seen. I'm curious how the students of Hogwarts are going to react when the truth comes out, especially when taken in the context of Harry's statements to Mr. Corner. The confrontation with the aurors was brilliant, again, I'm curious to see what happens when the truth outs. Outstanding work, thank you.

Something tells me that Lance is Mr. Tonk's name.

Andromeda's Comment refers *specifically* to Lucius' *lack* of armament compared to Ted Tonks (however, the Squeak we heard from a certain Sexy Auror points out that our friendly neighborhood werewolf has nothing to be ashamed of in HIS armory). (Lest we forget, Andromeda and Lucius were in Hogwarts at around the same time as Sirius' older brother Regulus Black *and* Ted Tonks.)

Well, I was *wrong*. It was *Narcissa and Draco* (rather than Bella and Draco) that tried to pull that evil prank. Andromeda and the NymphaDarling are officially reinstated into the family, Bellatrix is killed in self-defense (attempted patricide) and Narcissa has her marriage to Lucius denied *and* she is ejected from the Black Family (along with Draco) for the same offense. (Patricide, in the legal sense, is the killing of the male Family Head; if the victim is the female head of a Family, the crime would be matricide.) Claymores and Schooners should be alloys of platinum and titanium, respectively (both are *noble metals*, and both have higher values per troy ounce than gold, with titanium having a higher value per troy ounce than platinum). Given the sheer amount of gold in circulation in wizarding Britain alone, it would be surprising NOT to have platinum and titanium used in coinage for various reasons; however two major ones stand out: Given that the goblins are THE source of all wizarding coinage, and that both platinum and titanium themselves are often discovered in the same mines as gold, though in much smaller quantities, as wizarding wealth concentrates, it would behoove the goblins to start recovering the noble metals in circulation; the second being an aphorism that is equally true in the Muggle world (Waste Not, Want Not).

Another good chapter. I really liked the Diagon alley scenes and the final meeting with the Malfoys. Looking forward to what happens next.
