The weather is hot and humid in most of America, though a bit chilly in some places of the world. School is almost in session for "normal" kids, though it currently is for kids at the group homes. Though sometimes they're allowed out on a supervised field trip to the zoo or city pool. While most normal kids are out enjoying their summers, the kids of the group homes are stuck with therapy, chores and structure.

Magical creatures are now gaining more power in the wizarding society, no longer thinking of hiding their identities or their "creature classification". All of the three most prominent European magical schools are now headed by creatures. Regardless of who's running what - or as the purebloods see it; what is running where - children of any magical birth are welcome at all three schools, regardless of blood purity or species. Despite this, tensions continue to rise and safe havens begin to be questioned.
One thing is for sure, if this is to come to a full out war, pray you know which side you're on.
