    There's a new chapter available on his group.

    Not the best one, I'd say.
    It seems he'll do that whole kid-power thing, with Order members twidling their thumbs, while almighty DA battles the Death Eaters (using light curses only, of course).
    And then he did the reenactment of that lame scene from HBP with pirate cave and inferni - Harry's acting a little better but still like a Gryffindor.

    I must say that the guy forgets that he's dealing with Salazar now - light magic, broom rides, student clubs... meh, this story should have been darker than this, especially with all the references of bondage, slavery and harems the innitial plot-bunny is based on...

    I'm just afraid this might turn into another failure like "Dark Witch & Necromencer", where the author looses sight of his or hers initial ideas by trying to force the plot back into the canon mold...

    Sounds like it took a turn for the worse. Fuck it. I'm not gonna read it. I don't wanna be disappointed.

    Hrmmm... that doesnt sound like this story at all... Harry was a lot smarter and colder before, in the sense that he wouldnt mind using the dark arts on Death Eaters. This sounds like everything has taken a 180.

    I actually didnt see what was wrong with it.... the DA thing looks like its going to happen and that annoys me but other than that, everything was fine.

    Harry was pretty good when they went to get the locket. He wasnt being stupid as he was in HBP.... I mean, he found a different way to get the locket other than force feed Dumbledore... thats pretty smart.

    Don't know, but this chapter kinda brought in a few hard facts home

    1) Harry won't be ditching Ron & Hermione, there won't be confrontation over the fact that he's Slytherin and that he owns a harem.

    2) Harry won't be using much dark magic and he won't be fighting fire with fire. He'll still go around trying to stun people and bring them to justice... Salazar Slytherin? Yeah right, maybe that's why his pet basilisk only stunns people in books... Ridiculous.

    3) This will be using that overused idea of Harry gathering and training DE (probably using muggle methods), so they end up stronger then aurors and participate in the final battle fought in the halls of Hogwarts.

    Sorry, but I expected different kind of storry when he had Harry merge with Salazar and start gathering sex-slaves.I'm not saying it's exactly bad, it's just that it'll take some time getting used to the lower... or just different level of expectations from this story.

    I dont think he'll just use 'light' magic... he did use the killing curse without a second thought, even if it was on a stone basin. It showed that Dumbledore was also a bit miffled at that, the way he reacted to him using it so carelessly. Just stared at him... ya know?

    Dont count out a few conflicts yet between his friends. I'm positive Ron will have a hernia(sp?) when he learns about him being Slytherin... if he doesnt then yeah, it will be kinda crappy. Same goes with the Harem, Hermione and Ginny should get pissed or whatever but yeah, if they dont then thats stupid.

    The DA is the biggest bit I hate. Hopefully they wont turn into super soilders after a few weeks training. If that happens... well, may god have mercy on this stories soul.

    Well, I like this story, even if it's not as dark as someone would have originally expected. I will probably skim over any DA scenes, though. The only times I like the DA are when Harry is using it to corrupt the minds of the other students.

    Has been updated for anyone interested.

    It was a fairly good chapter though I disliked the stuff with Hermione. I guess it was 'in-canon' though, her being a little nosy bint and not taking the hint that she doesnt need to know everything about Harry.

    That stuff the Twins made sounds cool but... well, that just made everything a little too easy. Just throw in a Horcrux, stir, and w00t, one Horcrux gone.
