🌟 Welcome to a brand new Harry Potter bedtime story! 🌟

Join young Horace Slughorn on the most peculiar day of his life! What begins as preparation for the most important Ministry interview quickly transforms into an unexpected journey through magical London, guided by a single golden drop of Felix Felicis. Sometimes the greatest fortune is not getting what you want, but discovering what you truly need. ✨

What awaits you in this story:
— Young Horace Slughorn at the crossroads of his career
— A single drop of Felix Felicis leading him astray (or does it?)
— Hidden botanical shops with empathetic magical plants
— The exclusive Upper Quarter and its brilliant potioneers
— A hilarious Amortentia explosion involving lovesick mice and a bewildered cat
— Ancient potioneer secrets about feeling rather than following recipes
— The choice between Ministry prestige and true calling
— Mysterious Philosopher's Stone ash and its hidden properties

🎭 Meet the characters:
— Horace Slughorn (age 24) - ambitious, talented, but uncertain of his path
— Victoria Twiggs - an eccentric botanist with wisdom about magical plants
— Lady Cassandra Wainwright - a brilliant alchemist who knows the Ministry's dark side
— Reginald Pickering - a panicked shopkeeper whose love potion went terribly wrong
— Professor Emerius Wiltshire - a wise former teacher with timely advice
— Clarence Wibberding - a burnt-out Ministry assistant with a warning
— Albus Dumbledore - who knew all along what Horace truly needed

🎓 Set in 1953, this tale explores the origins of Professor Slughorn's legendary teaching career and the founding of the famous Slug Club. Discover how one missed Ministry appointment became the best decision of his life, and how a potion of luck showed him that empathy, intuition, and passion make a truly great potioneer—not prestige or power.

Perfect for bedtime listening, this story captures the warmth, humour, and gentle wisdom of J.K. Rowling's style while exploring themes of self-discovery, following your heart, and understanding that sometimes life's "mistakes" are exactly what we need.
