It is a great story so far, and I eagerly await the next chapter.

I love the idea of granting Draco's wish.
Combine the personal invisibility with some subtle or time-delayed hexes, and they can dole out retribution freely >;)When Vernon Didn't Miss

I enjoyed this chapter quite a bit. I tend to enjoy reading about Harry learning for some reason. I hope you'll find it in you to go a little bit more in depth with his studies; what he learns and from whom.
He must have made quite the impression with the brotherhood. I don't see a man like Cobra make that kind of commitment lightly. Nontheless, I'm glad to see Harry has someone who obviously loves him and that he in turn respects.
Can't wait for the next installment.

Sorry hard to believe Ginny would say anything negative about anyone.Author's response
You can't believe Ginny, vindictive in book 6 and super-jealous in book 7, with a huge crush on Harry, wouldn't say something bad to Hermione? Well, if that's your interpretation . . . it's certainly not mine

Cute. Draco gets one wish granted and that's it. :-)
Thanks for sharing this with us.When Vernon Didn't Miss

Thank you!
Not only did you give me a great chapter, and procured one hell of a backbone for Harry (who's been a bit lame occasionally,) you also solved one of the problems with my story. Thanks again.
Harry's standing in the Brotherhood is interesting, and the fairly complex piece of associative parselmagic was brilliant.
It followed the path of Genius, something that seems to make sense in the moment, it's tried, and then years are spent trying to work out why.
I love it.
Well, I'm too late to rate, but here's a solid fiver.

You're welcome, even if I'm not totally sure what for. I look forward to seeing what you do with the idea. I (and others) have often used Parsel-magic here and there, but I thought it was time to make a bit more use of it. I hope to work more into the story

You know Doc, I don't think anyone abuses Draco as entertainingly as you do. Excellent chapter. I wish I could rate it, but it's already maxed.When Vernon Didn't Miss

For a while it seemed your stories were getting repetitive, but once again you've found a fresh twist on the HP Universe. I don't believe I've read another tale where Harry is mentored by other holders of Horcruxes (horcruces? what is that blasted word's etymology anyway?). I definitely enjoy the earlier deviation from the HP Canon Universe; the majority of fanfics seem to leap off after Sirius's death, and the old dog is too much fun to have around. Great work as always!When Vernon Didn't Miss
