Chapter 31: life changing choices

Apparating in the house, he could hear the ongoing discussion.

"I still can't believe that Lord Black had bowed his head in front of a child, shameful! That such a mighty house had folded to the whim of some snot-nosed brat from who knows were..."

The man word was immediately cut when his head burst like a ripe watermelon, splashing the group surrounding him and nodding to his words.

"First, House Black is now more, and I don't allow death eater to spread lies and defamation about my House."

The frozen assembly all turn their head to the entering young, still dressed in his Hogwarts robes.

Looking at the assembly in the room, Orion could see three groups. The first was now made of nine, and a headless corpse, near the entry, and him. The second, in the centre of the room, spoking with Arctacus. It was made of five men, among them, he could easily see the father of his new friend, Luna.

On the right corner, he could see Madam Bones, along with some friends, from the look of it their ally in the light side.

All their eyes were on Orion, some fearful, going to the corpse and him, some shocked and a very little of them angry.

"How dare you kill..."

"I don't think that I allowed you to speak in my presence, so shut up!" Bark Orion back at the man, succeeding in shutting him." Arctacus, explain! Will, I can understand the presence of Lord Greengrass, Davis, Lovegood, Patil and Bell. Even the presence of Madam Bones and her block, but not those whining little bitch and slave, I can't."

"You...!" The man hasn't still understood his position reach for his wand, only for say hand to be blown to pieces and gaged.

##################################

While she nearly goes for her wand, Amelia Bones couldn't help but let a small smile draw on her face at the fate of those purebloods. Those ten, while not in Malfoys agenda are part of the old death eater, the last remaining of the first guard. They have long since thought themselves above the laws and had grown complacent to the point of forgetting that they were in a foreign land.

"They won't be here too long, my Lord, I was going through some old paperwork from the vaults of the Black, when I found some interesting files." Say the older man, walking to him and giving say files.

Looking through them rapidly, Orion growth a smile that send shivers to most of them.

"Very well, I will allow it."

"Thank you, my Lord." Responded him, looking at Orion throwing stunner at the nine other, and throws a rope turned portkey on the amas. "I will warn Teethsnatcher" Say him before apparating away, leaving him with his guest.

##################################

"Sorry for the unsightly scene, but some never learn, please sit." Say Orion while inviting the large group in a private room, more comfortable to discuss. As they seat, some house-elves pop in and serve some refreshment. "I had made aware of your presence here, more particularly that the demand came from your side. If some of you had any questions, please ask before we start."

Immediately the man on Madam Bones spoke.

"How can you kill a man like that, more so a pureblood!"

"Lord ?"

"Abbott."

"Well Lord Abbott, it simple. You are all here in my house, that signifies that you are not in Britain anymore, my word is laws in my land. I could care less that some pompous git calls himself a Lord. Every death eaters are criminals with a death penalty when entering my land."

"He had been proven innocent under the imperious curse!"

"A yes, the so much useful defence, I could care less to follow the directive of a so much corrupted government that it own past minister was been so mush greased by Malfoy that he was pouring oil at every corner. Unlike the moron group that you all form, I have studied the dark mark. It's a direct link to the magic of the caster and target, useless complete acceptance without any external action, it can't hold. Take it as you like, your free to hide to the fact that your so-called pureblood is the reason so much of your Britain Household had been decimated."

"How can you not care about the fate of your fellow people, you have a duty toward our government as the Boy-Who-Lived and last Potter!" Start to scream the man.

Orion, completely unfazed, looks at the other. "Does some of you share those views?"

Emboldened by Lord Abbott, all the rest of the block, safe Amelia Bones made it know that they share the same mindset.

"Alright, Cookie."

"Yes, master?" Ask the elf, poping to his side.

"Take them away, they don't need to remember it."

"Right away." The elf vanishes alongside the twelves lords.

##################################

"Alright, now that the mentally challenged are out, let me first welcome all of you here, I have been made aware of the current state of the British Ministry, and the fact that each of you had entered in contact with Arctacus for possible extradition. I am right?"

All six nodded.

"Great, while I would most that happy to accept all of you, you need to understand what will happen should you accept. You will lose all political power, I don't nor will have a council. I am the sole ruling power there. All of you will remain as head of your House and will lead your family as you should. All your internal problem will be solved by you and you alone. Should a conflict arise between two families and you are unable to work it out, I will be the judging power.

Second, you forget all about your misjudged bigotry, I had been living alongside goblin for near a year as equal, I won't all any of you to look down on them like you all do.

Three, the island is not your playground, other than the leaving area, the rest is wildland, if one of your family members is caught trying to abduct any species their for their sick pleasure, he will be executed and your family banned from the Island.

I have an ever-growing herd of the centaur that had been made as caretakers of the wildland; their word are laws their, if they caught someone sneaking in their land, to ask me to retrieve them, I won't. It had been made clear that we have our land, and reign supreme on them, and until then I don't have any single problem. You are of course allowed to stroll the island, and useless with my and the centaurs permission, you are not allowed to degrade the island."

Taking a little break for allowing them to let it sink, he looks at each of them, trying to see if any wanted to protest, seeing none made him continue.

"I am aware that some of you have commerce and would wish to continue. I not against it, but you will all have to pass through re-education before that. I will explain later.

Any smuggling in or out is forbidden, being caught mean death penalty, for all your family. Questions?"

All stay quiet for a moment before Lord Greengrass spoke.

"What do you mean by re-education?"

"Simple, Hogwarts standard are shit, they aren't worth a peanut out there, add to that, if you wish to live among my people you are expected to respect some standard. Among them is the use and craft of potion. Other than willingly given materials and picked up plant, any other material are banned. You will be re-educated in the true way of the potion, not this piss-poor excuse that Slughorn had taught you.

You will respect nature and don't pillage it like an uneducated moron. Money had nearly no use there, and I won't permit the creation of enormous surplus, just for you to fatten your bank account, we will produce 20% more than our need and nothing else! The rest of the unused material will be put in a stasis chamber for future use and nothing else.

While you will keep your tradition and free to apply them as you like, useless it became a danger for others. I won't pry into your practice, and you will not impose it on others, everyone will respect this. The patriarchal situation will also stop, women will have as much right as men, more so in succession situation.

Any mind-altering potion and charms are banned and put under taboo, should you break it, it will be a public execution for all the family. If you are unable to control your member, you are a danger for the community.

Their use will be regulated and authorised only in the medical process, as will the unforgivable."

This immediately attracts Madam Bones attention.

"What do you mean by that?" Asked her with an evident edge on her voice.

"Exactly what it means. The killing curse will be used on the patient with his own accord or his family head if he is unable to speak for himself. The Cursitus curse used in some medical situation like heart failure, and nerve-related issue. The imperious will be used to calm down subject suffering from trauma or to control rampaging individual. All will only be allowed in presence of witnesses, and any other use outside will be tracked under the taboo, a commission would then judge if the use was deemed necessary or was an abuse of power."

##################################

He stays quiet once again, letting them the time to register and made their mind. While they could be miffed that he will keep reigning power for himself they would be granted large freedom among their family, way more than they have.

The fact that their daughter would be able to inherit their head of House position would see that no matter a boy or a girl is born, the family will perdure as long as they follow the rules.

Lord Greengrass and Patil were also unsure at the loss of potential commerce and decided to ask.

"How will we be able to make commerce if we can't exchange with the outside world?"

"Simple, you will be allowed parcel of the island under a loan. You will be able to grow your produce there."

"Not all of our products will grow under our weather." Say, Lord Greengrass.

"It better if I show you all."

On this he made another piece of rope, turning it into portkey.

##################################

Bringing his six guests with him, he starts to show them the entire island, starting by the leaving area.

As wizarding Britain had a dispersed population, when not for Hogsmeade and the Alley, they were surprised to see that much Manor not far from each other. They could also see that, other than a garden the size of the Manor, no space was wasted in extensive and unoccupied land. I was surprising for them to see goblins mingle so easily with wizards and mundane people without anyone saying a word at this.

I was hard to see slapped in your face that you were effectively a backward community when someone was showing you that coexistence was possible when you stop to be an arse and think yourself superior.

Some feel a little uncomfortable by being the only one to wear ridiculously outdated robes when everyone was sporting mundane clothes.

After being sure that they start to understand that they were some must that great, he starts to show them the different biomes in place, who were already housing some harmless species. This made the two men understand when he says that they wouldn't need external support to live. All they would need was land and specific biomes and they would be able to grow everything they need.

Seeing a free herd of centaurs running through the plains, merpeople happily playing at the surface of the water, and ever coming on the shore, all without the fear that the Ministry will fall on them and execute or confine them was telling how much they had harmed their community by following Dumbledore and the dark side whims.

But this was nothing to the next sight, that nearly kill them from fright. Deep in one of the small forest was a group living apart from the community, not by need but by choice.

All nearly draw their wands, before remembering that it has been taken away from the time they were here when they see a large bipedal form prowling near the settlement. The furry creature was identifiable as a werewolf.

None of them shot, knowing the delicate hearing of the creature, but all turn to Orion, wanting their wand back. It was only then that they remember that it was still day, and the sun brightly shining in the sky.

##################################

"How is this possible!" Asked the DMLE boss, when they were further, and out of reach.

"That show once against the stupidity of wizards in general. I had only need of few months to came with a solution of the curse with the help of a willing Were. While they still retain the change, the wolf inside them his gone, fused with them. This had a side effect to made the change available a will, even if it remain painful, nothing that a stronger pain-relieving potion didn't help.

This group is new, some are more comfortable in this form the time that their situation settles, but in a month or so they will be able to return to a human appearance."

"Why haven't you release those result?"

"Simple, in few days it won't matter anymore, I have a group of hunters that had taken down Fenrir and his pack, all other dangerous ones are exterminated as we spoke all around the world, the rest of the were are here. In a few days, a month at most, the werewolf as know will become extinct, only lycan will be left, and all will be here."

"What if the bite those living here?"

"Then they will be sent to the hospital and healed, with the wolf gone, the bite isn't contagious, the only way for them to raise their number is by mating, the change is genetic now, it no longer a curse, they are a new race of magical being.
