Welcome to Charming, where swirling petticoats, the language of flowers, and old-fashioned duels are only the beginning of what is lying underneath…
After a magical attempt on her life in 1877, Queen Victoria launched a crusade against magic that, while tidied up by the Ministry of Magic, saw the Wizarding community exiled to Hogsmeade, previously little more than a crossroad near the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. In the years that have passed since, Hogsmeade has suffered plagues, fires, and Victorian hypocrisy but is still standing firm.
Thethe year is now 1895. It’s time to join us and immerse yourself in scandal and drama interlaced with magic both light and dark.

I have some concerns in regards to my ward's development in the school, to which is of no fault of yours or your staff. From the moment she entered our household, she has been reluctant to learn and I fear for her grades now at Hogwarts. Letters are sent regularly between her and I, as well as from her to my wife, and we have seen no improvement in her writing skills.
I write to you in hopes that you may have some solutions to help her improve in her academics. I am sorry for any inconveniences that she may have caused while at the school, if any have indeed occurred.
From,
Mr. Victor North

Mr. North,
I apologize for the delay in response—I received your letter only yesterday. As both Deputy Headmaster and an active professor, Headmaster Black thought that I would certainly be better positioned to respond to your inquiries, a viewpoint with which I certainly agree.
Young Miss Warbeck has not been thriving here. On arrival, she was already well behind her peers in terms of social niceties and basic literacy, prompting her to struggle behaviourally and academically. It is with regret that I write that, should her attention to task not improve dramatically, she will not make enough progress next term to be invited to attend in September.
Taking on a child that is not one’s own is an admirable task, one that you and your wife are both to be commended for. Ultimately, though, Miss Warbeck’s nature can be tempered by familial affection but not changed by it, so I do not wish you to take this news as a slight upon your care of her. I would encourage you to have her back for the Christmas holidays, and to have a frank discussion about what she sees for her future; while she is not academically blessed, she is an intelligent enough girl to understand the weight of such subjects.
Yours sincerely,
Professor H. Darrow
Deputy Headmaster, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
