Why you are reccing this: I love this behind the scenes DH tale. It tells Cho's story from her POV and how she came to be at Hogwarts for the final battle. It focuses on how difficult it can be to assimilate into a 'native' culture when it's something that isn't truly one's own, and how fiercely loyal people tend to be toward their family. This story is a true coming of age story in the midst of war that covers half the world.
