A fascinating idea. Harry's set-p was exceptionally well done, being as there was sufficient real evidence to implicate him. that the Death Eater was the onl witness and that Fudgey had stacked the court with his own bootlickers didn't hurt at all. It doesn't surprise me a single bit that Fudge would continue to deny Voldemort's return. As long as the magical population thinks Voldy is MIA, he keeps his job.
Chapter two was an interesting effect. Harry is actually seeing his friends through whatever magic you choose to use.
He knows that they're still hoping for him, but the constant presence of the Dementors are wearing him down.
I have placed this on my alerts list and hope to see where you take this. Alorkin

Life and work haven't given me a lot of time to work on this, but I have chapter three about a third done. I have a couple days to devote to it, and I hope to finish the next installment by this weekend (cross my fingers).
The next chapter will be some more set-up for the rest of the story. Expect a longer chapter to hold all of this!
