Enter Severus

The first week as Mrs. Snape was by far the worst week in Elieen's entire life.

The house was small but well cared for, not that she had noticed, but it only contained two bedrooms. So being the kind and generous person he was, Tobias let his pregnant "wife" (he would shudder at that term for the rest of his life) take his room while he slept on the much used and lumpy couch in the sitting room.

The household remained very quite for most of the week, Elieen not exiting her room for anything other than the loo, which was used quite often as the smell of the local paper mill often leaked into the house when the wind blew just right. Food was brought to her door by the elder Mrs. Snape, no words needed and the plate often came back just as full as it was prior to entering the room. With money already on short supply, food was not to be wasted, and eight days after her arrival in the house, the former Ms. Prince was forceably dragged from the room by a much stronger Mrs. Snape and put to work pealing potatoes and plucking the chicken that the family would eat once the males of the house came back from work.

The family learned quickly not to bother the magic deprived witch if at all possible, and the only reason she was allowed to remain in the house was for the child she carried. The elder Snapes were very excited about another child in the family, Tobias' mother had only been able to carry one child to term and had always wished for more. Tobias himself was not looking at all looking forward to his impending fatherhood, his main concern was avoiding his wife and taking solace in the fact that her parents marriage contract magically forbade her from killing and or maiming anyone in his family, including the child she carried.

It only took two months for the initial shock of the introduction to the magical world to wear off, though the elder Mr. and Mrs. Snape would never truly come to terms with it and would eventually write off the whole thing as psychosis. The adjustment to muggle life was hard on everyone in the house, but eight months after her arrival, a new addition made his way into the world. Angry as Elieen was at her family for abandoning her to the treacherous muggle world, she kept with her family traditions, his given name would be the same as her fathers and his middle name that of his father.

Severus Tobias Snape was born January 9th, 1960 at 3:33am in the second bedroom of Spinners End.
