Follow her as she navigates through her time at Hogwarts and what comes after.
Note
Hi! This is my very first time writing a story so please don't be too critical while reading lol. I love Mary, she's my favorite character and so underrepresented!!! I'm planning to write one chapter per Hogwarts year and then for the time after I'll just figure it out along the way ig.English is not my first language so I apologize for any mistakes.Have fun reading and I'm open for feedback! :)
