If it's HBP compliant, why was Voldemort killed by the trees? If he still had his Horcrux protection intact (which I assume to be the case, since Harry was at Hogwarts when captured), shouldn't, at the very least, his wraithMort form be intact?

 

Does Dumbledore see through the cloak in the books?

 

No, it's that Hominis Revelio spell.

 

Somewhere in chapter 2, when Harry recalls the events of the war, he mentions coming back to Hogwarts after several months of travelling. At the time, I was going to include a more detailed recountal of his adventures out of Hogwarts (they were, in fact, the Horcrux hunt) but it would've been a long and useless parenthesis in the plot.

I think I also said somewhere that by the time Voldemort was killed, he only had a seventh of his soul left (it's even a key element to his death). Might be wrong, though, I modified my plans so many times that it wouldn't surprise me there are still loose ends I haven't taken care of.

 

So he destroyed the other Horcruxes in a few short months?

Admittedly, it doesn't really matter, since it doesn't have a great deal of bearing on the current plot. You probably did mention something about him only having 1/7 of his soul remaining, I've just forgotten by now.

 

Yes, that's the idea.

The taking of Hogwarts took place in late Spring, so it left him about as much time as he had in DH to find and destroy all the Horcruxes.

 

It has been necroed.

Yeah, this thread too, but also the story. I just thought you ought to know.

Sadly now I have to go back and reread the whole story to actually get into the update.

 

The impossible has, indeed, happened.

Just a tiny link:

That's the summary of the story, up to the 18th chapter. The current update being Chapter 19 (there's an interlude somewhere in the middle), you're good to go.

 

This genuinely made my day. Great to see an update, and I'm very happy to see it might be updating again soon.

 

After all this time, there is no chance I'm not re-reading. There goes my full night of sleep before my trip, a trade I'd take any day.

 

My legit reaction, through a haze of being half asleep: "What in the actual fuck?" followed by stupidly grinning and planning to spend my morning catching up with this awesome, awesome, fic. Cheers Tinn.

 

I was practically frothing at the mouth at the thought of a noob!necro.

Instead i'll spend the next few hours re-reading.

FUCK YEAH TINN TAM!

 

NO FUCKING WAY!

Looks like it's time to re-read. Holy shit.

 

Oh my God- The Song of the Trees has been updated! YES!

Chapter 21 was released today. Thank you very much Tinn Tam and Happy Birthday, you are amazing.

 

OK. NEW UPDATE.

Gogogogo

 

Merry Christmas.

I hope, anyway.

EDIT: ... Ninja'd in my own thread. -_-

 

Jesus, I only half remember this fic from years ago, great to see it updated.

Going to have to reread it to make sense of the update, not that I'm complaining.

 

Very well written and kept me comming back for more, would definitly recommend.

 

Updated again
