In the wizarding world, things are not as we've come to know them. The familiar names, places, and traditions are all set within a society that operates quite differently from what we expect. The most significant difference is that the wizarding world is matriarchal—a world where power, status, and legacy pass through the female line, and women hold ultimate control over magical families.
This matriarchal system has existed for centuries, ever since the magical world flourished under the rule of powerful women. In this society, magic and influence are inherited through mothers, with pureblood families fiercely protecting their birthright. This structure has shaped the values and practices of the magical community, where the inheritance of family names, titles, and even magical powers, depends entirely on maternal lineage.
As a result, the biology of wizards and witches is different from that of Muggles. Even Muggleborns—those born to non-magical parents—are subject to the magical laws of this world. Wizards and Muggles are, in fact, biologically distinct, as wizards inherit magical traits passed down through generations of witches, which sets them apart from non-magical people.
The purebloods, descendants of ancient magical families, have long dominated this world. However, the rise of Muggleborns—those born to non-magical parents—has sparked tension. These individuals challenge the established order and, in a society where tradition and power are closely guarded, Muggleborns are often seen as outsiders, unfamiliar with the customs and practices that sustain the magical world. This cultural clash between old traditions and the changing tide of magical society forms the backdrop of our story.
A key source of this tension is the matriarchal system itself. Muggleborns, unfamiliar with the culture, may view it as outdated or even backward. However, since they enter the wizarding world before reaching puberty, they are able to adapt more easily to the customs of the magical community.
Another issue is the imbalance between the number of witches and wizards. Approximately three-quarters of births in the wizarding world result in female children, creating an oversupply of witches. Since women hold more power in this society, they are reluctant to share their influence, which has led to a shortage of suitable male partners for pureblood witches. These women must marry within their social class to maintain their family's purity and power. With fewer male purebloods available, many pureblood families find themselves in a difficult situation. In contrast, Muggleborns—whose families have an equal number of male and female children—do not face this issue. As a result, only the most powerful pureblood families can secure male pureblood partners. If they cannot, they must turn to half-bloods to ensure the purity of their bloodlines. This risks diluting their magical abilities, diminishing their social standing, and possibly losing the powerful traits passed down through generations.
In this world, males are often seen as mere vessels to preserve a pureblood family's legacy. They are regarded as tools to safeguard the family's magical heritage and as symbols of power to be flaunted.
At the center of this redefined society are familiar families—Potters, Blacks, Weasleys—but their legacies have been reshaped in unexpected ways. In this world, the Potters' legacy is carried by a daughter named Holly Potter, who is destined to change the course of history. Meanwhile, the Black family no longer bears the name of Sirius Black, but instead, it is represented by a new figure: Alya Black.
The Malfoy family has also undergone a dramatic transformation. Stella Malfoy, Draco's reversed counterpart, is not the heir to the Malfoy name. Instead, the family legacy is passed to her older sister, Aurora Malfoy, who, like her sister, is also a reincarnated soul. Other changes include Bellatrix Lestrange, who remains a fierce and formidable woman, and Regulus Black, whose life remains unchanged, closely tied to that of our hero. Lucius Malfoy and Narcissa Malfoy have also transformed: Lucius Malfoy is now Narcissa Malfoy, and Narcissa, once a Black by birth, is now Lucius' wife and the bearer of his name. Draco's story, while familiar, unfolds very differently in this matriarchal society.
Perhaps the most striking change is at Hogwarts, where the headmaster is now a woman—Alba Dumbledore. She is the same visionary leader we remember, but she also serves as an unintentional defender of the traditions that uphold the wizarding world's matriarchy. Opposing her is Gellert Grindelwald, a man determined to shift the power dynamics. Grindelwald advocates for the rights of men in a society that largely excludes them from positions of authority. His tragic affair with Dumbledore ended in heartbreak, but his ambition and power remain unyielding, enabling him to challenge the established order.
In this new world, the battle for the future of magical society will be fought not just by the young heroes we know, but by those who have been reincarnated. Holly Potter is the protagonist of this story, but she is not the only one. Arcturus Regulus Black, the son of Regulus Black, is a reincarnated soul. Born in 1980, he carries the memories of his past life as he navigates this altered world. He is not the Boy Who Lived, nor does he wish to be. His ambition is to gain power and change the fate he was born into.
Arcturus' journey is intertwined with that of other reincarnated souls. There is Ronda Weasley, the reincarnation of Ron Weasley, and Serena Prince, the reincarnated female version of Severus Snape. Each of them must navigate the challenges of this changed world, grappling with their past lives. Together, they must confront a world that has been subtly—but profoundly—altered by their very presence.
While it may seem like the wizarding world's fate is destined to repeat itself, this time, the stakes are different. In this world, the matriarchy must be defended at all costs. The choices made by the characters will resonate through time as they challenge, defend, and rewrite the magic that governs them.
This is the world you thought you knew—but turned upside down. A place where the past and present collide in unexpected ways. In this world, the heroes and villains we once understood must adapt to a society built by women and for women. And in this world, the future will be shaped by those who dare to question the very foundations of the magical world.
