Chapter 7
January 10, 1972
Lily managed to invite her friend Anastasia from Durmstrang while Sirius, Regulus, Narcissa and James came as well escorted by Andromeda and Lucius.
Introducing Narcissa to Anastasia was interesting…
Both were bright witches after all…
It was a lot louder than Aurelius’ party, a bit like the Nursery New Year’s party only there were presents.
There was a light luncheon, cake and presents.
They were a bit old for party games and with Andromeda and Lucius present it wouldn’t do to be seen as childish.

By February the rumour of the return of the Triwizard Tournament had begun to circulate at Hogwarts and Durmstrang.
It was supposed to be a secret which meant that it was all over the school by dinner.
In Hogwarts it was Narcissa's best friend Alethea Flint who heard it when she went to speak with Professor Slughorn and discussed it with Narcissa.
A Hufflepuff overhead it and it eventually made its way to Gryffindor where James and Sirius started getting excited.
As for Durmstrang, Anastasia heard it while visiting her grandfather.
She told Lily who while sworn to secrecy twinspoke it to Severus who mentioned it to Remus and it spread quickly after that.
Unfortunately or fortunately, only Seventh Years were eligible.
Neither school was to host, Beauxbatons which was the school that Severus and Lily had decided against was the hosting school.
Bets began to be registered on who would be sent.
Lily wondered when the tournament would actually happen and if she would get a chance herself…
