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.

I will have you know, my daughter did not write that entry to Witch Weekly, and if I find out who did, they will regret it. Thankfully it seems yours is the only response. I will not ask you to reply to this message, as I do not wish to know who you truly are, in order to save you the embarrassment should we cross paths. I only ask that you never mention this to anyone.
