_______________________________________________

After Voldemort's supposed death the war was pretty much over, after that night the ministry and the order quickly defeated and captured the rest of the death eaters in just a few months.

Just like in the previous timeline only a few amongst the death eaters stayed loyal to their cause and accepted their incarceration with pride, the rest quickly changed their tunes. The rich and powerful among the death eaters were able to bribe their way out of trouble by claiming the imperious defence, others were not so fortunate, they even turned on each other to save their own skin.

After the war was over Harry's father and his uncle Sirius continued their careers as Aurors under Moody's command, at the same time these two were trained in their family magic by Charlus Potter and Arcturus Black respectively.

Harry's mother Lily on the other hand returned to Hogwarts for two years to get her Masters in Charms and Runes to become an Enchantress. For her thesis, Lily Potter nee Evans made the first Magic Mirror and the wizarding world was changed forever.

Magic Mirror is an enchanted mirror based on the two-way mirror made by his father and uncle Sirius, but instead of being just a pair of mirrors connected by magic, the Magic Mirror made by his mother acts more like a muggle cellphone.

With a Magic Mirror, a wizard or witch can communicate directly with any other wizard or witch who also has a Magic Mirror, not only that this mirror can also be used to record videos, take pictures, send messages, etc.

Magic Mirror has completely revolutionized communication for the entire wizarding world. Lily Potter could have used her patent of Magic Mirror to earn millions of galleons, but seeing how much her invention could help the entire wizarding world she instead chose to donate this patent to the public domain.

Now every adult wizard or witch has their own magic mirror which they can use to communicate with anyone in the world. There is also Mirror Tv which works like a muggle television but with a large mirror instead. Mirror Tv can be bought and installed in any warded home or location just by simply adding a Transmission ward to the ward scheme.

Since Mirror Tv is still a recent addition in the wizarding world there are only a few broadcast channels to watch. The most popular among them is the official channel set up by the ministry of magic, it is very popular because all the quidditch matches are only broadcast on this channel. Aside from Quidditch the official channel also shows news, important events, interviews, emergency announcements, etc.

The existence of Mirror Tv has also boosted the magical entertainment industry to new heights.

Before Mirror Tv Quidditch had only one official tournament every four years, the Quidditch World Cup. Now there are lots of tournaments every year, an amateur tournament for the younger players, a national tournament, etc. Now there is a lot more Quidditch to watch for the fans and it is also easily accessible to everyone.

Magical performances which are plays, songs, etc that are performed with the help of magic. For example, a magic play is performed on stage by actors while the wizards backstage use magic to change the stage into whatever the scene needs, it's like adding muggle special effects but these effects are actually real.

Before Mirror Tv artists like actors, singers and performers had to travel all over the world to show their craft, but now they just have to record it once and their performance can be broadcast all over the world.

Magic Mirror had such a big impact on the wizarding world that the ministry awarded Lily Potter nee Evans with the Order of Merlin First Class. Making her one of the rare few muggle-borns to be awarded with this grand title.

Magic mirror is not the only thing Lily Potter invented, Harry's mother has made lots of things in her efforts to bring comforts of the muggle technology into the wizarding world. While working with goblins his mother made the vault card that essentially functions as the muggle debit card.

From magic microwave to coloured moving pictures there are more than a dozen patents in his mother's name, some of them are even earning royalties for his mother.

While Harry was studying at Hogwarts his professors would often describe his mother as a genius and a gifted witch. At that time Harry pictured his mother as someone like Hermione but only now has he realised how limited his perspective truly was.

While Hermione is certainly smart but only when it comes to academics, his mother on the other hand literally made the life of everyone in the wizarding world better.

Lily Potter is a symbol that showed everyone how much of a difference a muggle-born witch or wizard can make in the wizarding world. Just because of one witch the timeline and the wizarding world is forever changed.

While his father and uncle Sirius are defending the people from dark wizards and creatures as Aurors and his mother is making everyone's life easier with her projects, his uncle Remus has been fighting for the rights of Werewolves against a biased ministry.

To think that all four of these extraordinary people with enormous potential gave their lives to protect him. But this time he will do whatever it takes to make sure that all of them live a happy and full life.

Harry just stood in front of the lake trapped in his own thoughts for a long while without even realizing it. Suddenly he is broken out of his stupor by a beautiful voice, he turns around to find where the sound is coming from only to see a Phoenix sitting on a tree behind him.

The legendary bird is singing for him, the song slowly freeing him from his worries and discomfort.
