Inside Hogwarts things are changing too. The students are returning for the school year and things are about to become intense as the up and coming war is affecting the student body.

Other students are banding together and defending themselves against the Dark Arts. They are doing whatever it takes to survive. They didn't think that their lives would be Blighted By War.
