Summary
Voldemort has found another way to ensure his own immortality but the methods he is seeking have a mind of their own. Unwilling to allow a dark megalomaniac to use their magic to reign eternal, Harry and other students of Hogwarts, friends and enemies alike, hear the call to find the Artifacts. Drawn into a world of dreams, they are faced against the chosen seekers of both Voldemort and Dumbledore, an unknown third party in a war that will awaken old magics, lost races, and things better left dormant. Alternate Universe beginning the summer before 5th year. Book One of Three.
Note
Welcome to the first chapter of The Search For Life and Death. This story is an alternate-universe version of Harry's fifth year at Hogwarts, beginning the summer before it starts. You will find many things in this fic similar to Harry's fifth year, but there will also be many differences, not the least of which is the inclusion of some magical creatures that will alter the way the war goes.I want to state now that this is not a Super Harry fic. They can be fun to read on occasion, but there are plenty of them around. This is a story about Harry finding people who are there to help him learn and grow, friends who stand beside him and lend their strength, and magic in its many forms finding its way into this world. I'm very much looking forward to this story and its sequels, and I look forward to your enjoyment of it. This version of the story is Not Rated, due to sexual situations and extreme violence. In the chapters involving sex, there will be a warning in the notes, in case you wish to avoid that. There is also a PG13 version of this story available on fanfiction.net, which is censored and does not contain the sexual scenes available within this one. The story is the same, there are just some scenes missing. Whichever version you choose to read, I hope that you enjoy it. I also hope you will be so kind as to leave me a review. It really does make a difference, knowing there are people who are reading what you write and willing to let you know they are there. As a final note, I do not own the Harry Potter franchise. I will not waste time repeating it every chapter. We all know I'm not JK Rowling. Enjoy the story.- Umbrae Calamitas  Live long. Live well. Write. Read. Dream.
