Hmm, I definitely get resonances with SW:III as well as several other stories. I suspect the escapees will prove much more important than either side realizes, esp. with that journal that identifies Jericho.
I still think my suggested rationale for the name "Jericho" holds, though I could see it being due to an anquished child doing a considerable burst of accidental magic at 4 Privet Drive as much as the aftermath of Halloween '81 in Godric's Hollow.

You know as I wrote that chapter I got the same feeling about SW:III. I swear it wasn't my intention. Myren was destined to fall ever since I started writing this story. The initiates themselves have no purpose and will be removed in due time to introduce some other peeps(little spoiler). Elizabeth will stick around, since named OCs are more important than non-named. As to the rationale of Jericho's name. I do like the idea you said, but I honestly can't think of a reason why he would explain it. Also Jericho was taken after Voldie blasted him in Godric's Hollow...I'm sure I mentioned that somewhere. And as much as I hate to say this, cause its another tiny spoiler, there are more survivors than Jericho, Marcell, Amadues, Elizabeth, and the Initates (though they're the only survivors from Myren). Those survivors won't split up and go into hiding because they serve a greater purpose. Some will, but thats all Im saying about that.
