Rain tapped softly against the narrow window of Elias Blake's room, the gray sky mirroring the atmosphere inside the ancient Blake
estate — a home in name only.
At eleven years old, Elias looked nothing like a typical child. His posture was calm, composed. His eyes—ice-blue and deeply focused—held a quiet intelligence far beyond his years. And though his face bore the clean, symmetrical features that would one day make him unmistakably handsome, there was something distant about him. A weight behind his gaze. A story buried deep.
He was meditating again. A practice carried over from a life before magic.

Welcome, Reincarnator. Timeline: Canon Divergence Pending.
A soft smile touched his lips.
☀️ A Life Once Lived
In a different world, in a different body, he'd been Eli Morgan—a boy born to warmth and love. His mother, a nurse. His father, a college professor with a love for history and fantasy. Their house had been small, but it was filled with laughter, books, and late-night conversations about magic.
It was cancer that took it all. Slow. Merciless. He'd died at sixteen, his body failing him, his mind still yearning for more. His final memory had been the final chapter of The Deathly Hallows, barely able to turn the page.
Then… darkness.
And then… crying. A different kind. His own.
He had been reborn in the Wizarding World.
🏰 The Blake Legacy
The Blakes were pure-bloods. Respected. Cold. Obsessed with appearances. His father, Cassian Blake, was a high-ranking Ministry official known for his ruthlessness and lack of sentiment. Elias had never once received a hug, a story, or a scrap of fatherly affection.
His mother died giving birth to him. His father never forgave him for that.
So Elias grew up alone in the halls of an ancient manor, surrounded by house-elves and silence. But he had something no one else had:
A lifetime of knowledge about this world—and now, a system to reshape it.

The knock at the door came moments later.
Tufty, the timid house-elf, bowed low. "Master Elias, sir. Letter. From Hogwarts."
Elias walked to the door, long-limbed and elegant even at eleven. He took the envelope, feeling the parchment's familiar texture.
He didn't need to open it. He already knew what it said. Still, he slid a finger under the seal.

He stood before the mirror that evening, still holding the letter. A boy with pale skin, dark lashes, and striking features stared back.
He wasn't ordinary.
He never had been.
And now, the story was his.
