Notes: This is an idea that I've had pre-HBP, but I've incorporated some new canon into the story. A sequel is planned, but I'm not certain when that will be completed. Entered in the hp_pens Veela fic contest. The concepts surrounding Veela society is based upon the legend of Vily. All lyrics featured within "Where They Shall Not Pine" are original compositions.

More Notes: "Where They Shall Not Pine" is completed and is under revision. I'm going to repost once I've had all of the chapters beta'd.

Summary: Harry and Draco are coming of age in the wizarding world - in more ways than one might expect for boys of seventeen. And as they struggle to move forward, they are ever haunted by the past. It would be easy to turn from the path down which duty and legend has propelled them - it would be easy to reject strife and prophecy. But it is by accepting responsibility that boys become men; and it is by exceeding expectations that men become legends themselves, taken to dwell where the deep magic runs free... taken to dwell where they shall not pine.

A/N: Wow! This is the end. Really and finally. Thank you for your attention and comments. I appreciate all that you've put into the story as readers, and it makes me very happy to know that you've enjoyed my efforts so far. And without further ado, here's what we've all been waiting for!
