I cannot for the life of me understand why this story has not gotten more reviews, and rave reviews, also.
I think the plot sound, and question on everyone's lips, why, how when and where is hope? Magic is a place that finds its rays ablaze in the hearth of a truth, not ridden by absolutism, but by the mosaic of things different and in all things beauty and dark cease to be antagonistic, instead, counterpoints of contrast.
When an idea, ideal or notion becomes a force of inability to be inclusive, then it is time for a new way.
Generic responses but essentially I admire the way you have researched, tackled the difficult processes of the Market, often called, free-market, but this is a misnoma, here in your story you paint an insightful profile of how greed and power and the invisible hand behind these forces bring so much death and suffering. The fact heroes are challenged in a new way is a brilliant stroke of genius, especially when in the Harry Potter universe and the realization that darkness is far broader than the Dark Lord. Now, it is the darkness that is insidious, cunning, glittering and hollow, more deadly than any Deatheater could ever hope to be and we don't need to look far to find it. Conversely, we don't need to look far for the solution, it lies between every heartbeat, between every one of us no matter our beliefs, skin color or other differences, we only need to be brave enough to reach for it...
Minor pointers:
I think after you've completed this amazing story you ought to get ssomebody to line-edit it for you. minor grammar, punctuation multiples, extraneous things like that. cosmetic and those considerations aside, this is fantastic. All power to you and the conflicts between Harry and Ginie, the inner struggles and how each young witch and wizard deal with the Muggle world is well constructed and conceived.
