A very good chapter I liked the information on the Veela and allure but it would be good if once Harry destroys the Dark Lord and the Headmasters Order are dealt with Harry should free the Veela as they want to be free unlike the elves.
Good thinking to expand on the power of love as its this Harry's greatest strength yet he never really experences it and nobody helps him to understand it or even work out how it could be used beyond hugging the Dark Lord. The books made it seem like once Harry was ready to die that was it, not a whole lot of love there.
A good start to the relationship between Harry and Gabrielle I hope in time he will come to love her as much as he does Hermione and that Harry finds out Gabrielle would risk everything for his sake as not even Hermione has done that.
I hope you decide to give Harry a back bone or some balls so that when the time comes its not Harry/Hermione and they decide to include Gabrielle but Harry decides he wants them both that way Gabrielle is not viewed as the bad guy for getting in between Harry and Hermione. As the line "Harry in bed with a Veela pretending she was Hermione" that says it all.
Nothing is ever really said about Hermione's scar so thanks for that and for no Hermione/Ron
I look forward to the next chapter and I hope the Dursley's are punished.
Author's response
Thanks for the review.
Glad you're liking it, and yeah, I felt JKR dopped the ball on the "power he knows not is love" in the last book.
More on the veela later on.
Harry will definitely have a backbone, and thus far my plans are for him to be the one to bring the idea to Hermione.
Dursleys won't be punished completely next chap, jsut scared, but they WILL eventually get what's coming from them.
