Harry Potter and the Old Ones

Although the teachers gave the fourth grade students a lot of homework during the holidays, after the semester was over, almost no one except Hermione had the heart to do it.

In the week before Christmas, everyone was having fun together.

Gryffindor Tower was almost as full as before the holidays, and the tower seemed to have shrunk in size as the people who lived in it were much noisier than usual.

Fred and George's canary biscuits were selling very well. During the first day or two of the holiday, people suddenly sprouted feathers all over their bodies.

But the Gryffindor students soon learned their lesson and became very wary of the food being handed to them, lest there be a canary biscuit hidden in the middle.

Of course, this doesn't stop them from getting into bad luck, because according to rumors, George and Fred are working on a cookie that can turn people into toads.

Christmas arrives with a heavy snowfall, and falling snowflakes fall on the castle and grounds.

Beauxbatons' light blue carriage looks like a big pumpkin covered in frost in winter, and the little gingerbread house sprinkled with frosting next to it is Hagrid's cabin.

The sides of Durmstrang's ship were covered with ice and became smooth and translucent, and the sail ropes were also stained with a layer of hoarfrost.

The house elves cooking in the basement kitchen were very busy, preparing hot stews and sweet puddings of various flavors.

On Christmas morning, Harry woke up early and looked around as soon as he woke up——

Harry saw a small, delicate box on his bedside.

The small box was wrapped in light blue gift paper with a starry sky pattern, and a note was attached to the gift box:

"Merry Christmas, may wisdom and reason always be by your side - Tiera"

Harry excitedly and carefully unwrapped the package, opened the box, and took out the contents——

It was a set of twenty-two palm-sized cards, made in the style of wizard playing cards, with a Tiera drawn in the picture frame of each card.

Some Tiera wear a triple crown, hold a cross scepter, and wear bright red papal robes. The name column of the wizard card reads "V-The Pope"

There is also a playing card called Tiera with a human head and a snake body, holding its own tail in its mouth. On each corner of the card are a lion, an eagle, a cow and an angel with the face of Tiera. There is also a sphinx with wings and Tiera's face lying on the body of Tiera. The name column of the card says "X-The Wheel of Fortune"

There was also the playing card Tiera, which was hung upside down on a tree, with his arms spread out, forming an inverted cross with his human body, while countless sharp spears pierced his body, and his name column It says "XII-The Hanged Man"

There are also playing cards with a Tiera-like angel blowing a trumpet. Below, countless Tieras stand up from countless coffins, looking up to the sky. The card says "XX-The Judgment"

In addition, there are Tiera who is wearing a rust-colored robe and sitting on a chariot; there is also Tiera who is wearing a colorful costume and carrying luggage and is about to leave; there is also Tiera who is wearing women's clothing and sitting on a throne with her Tiela wears a golden olive branch crown and is surrounded by barley, mushrooms and rice; there is also Tiela wearing a black robe, half of her face is a skull, and she is holding a sickle...

There are twenty-two cards in total, from 0 to XXI, from "The Fool" to "The World". On every card, whether human or other animals, is Tiera's face——

Including the puppy following the Fool, which is also the face of Tiera, the lion in the Strength card, the two war horses in the Chariot card, etc...

Each Tiera on each card had their eyes tightly closed, which gave the entire deck of cards that were originally quite gorgeous an indescribable sense of weirdness.

"Merry Christmas, Harry." While Harry was looking at the cards one by one, Tiera came back from the shower and saw Harry smiling and said, "May the madness go away, and may wisdom and reason always be by our side. .”

"Uh...what?" Harry asked confused.

"It's okay." Tiera smiled and said, "Merry Christmas, Harry, do you like this Christmas gift?"

"I like it!" Harry said with a smile, "Thank you, Tiera! I like this gift very much!"

"As long as you like it." Tiera said with a smile.

"By the way, I've prepared a gift for you too!" Harry said and was about to take out a gift box from his bedside table, but suddenly, when Harry turned around, his eyes happened to fall on Ron's bed. Next to Ron's pillow was an identical gift box with a note attached that read:

"Merry Christmas, may wisdom and reason always be by your side - Tiera"

…

As the sun rises, the teachers and students of Hogwarts, Durmstrang, and Beauxbatons gradually wake up from their sleep.

Throughout Hogwarts Castle, no matter the students, teachers, or even the dormitory administrator Fitch, the librarian Mrs. Pince, Mrs. Pomfrey of the school hospital, and Mrs. Rosier, Nico Flamel’s alchemy robot , after they woke up in a daze, they found a beautifully wrapped small gift box on their bedside table or beside their pillow. There was a note attached to the surface of the box, which said:

"Merry Christmas, may wisdom and reason always be by your side - Tiera"

…

Harry, Ron and Tiera met in the Gryffindor common room.

"Merry Christmas, Hermione." Tiera asked with a smile after seeing Hermione, "Do you like my Christmas gift?"

"Humph..." Hermione put on a bad face, glanced at Tiera, and said nothing.

Also wearing a stinky face was Harry——

After seeing Ron, Neville, and Seamus with gifts exactly like his on their bedside, Harry began to feel a little unhappy.

After knowing that the Weasley twins and others had received exactly the same gift as himself, the unhappiness on Harry's face turned into a "bad face".

"It's so cool!" Ron, who didn't understand the situation at all, said as he held the deck of tarot cards in his pocket, "It's so cool! You are a genius, Tiera!"

"Haha, as long as you like it." Tiera said, "May the madness go away, and may wisdom and reason always be by our side."

"Wha, what?" Ron asked confused.

Hermione looked at Tiera strangely.

"No, it's nothing." Tiera said with a smile, "It's just a sentence I read in a book, and I think it makes sense."

"Come on, let's go have breakfast." Tiera added, "Don't forget that we have a Yule Ball tonight. We have to fill our stomachs so that we don't have to spend the night with the girl..."

Tiera glanced at Hermione, "In case we don't have enough energy to dance with the girls and the tough guys at night."

There will be another update soon
