Unfortunately her fourth year was also marred by the return of the Dark Lord, the single greatest threat that the Wizarding World had ever seen (in England, at the least, Hermione had read of some rather unsavory individuals from other corners of the globe,) ready to spread mayhem and terror all across the land. Hogwarts wasn’t enough anymore, she needed something more, something else to keep her safe. If anything the past four years had proven well enough that the schools defenses were sorely lacking, specifically when they catered to the rather eccentric whims of the Headmaster and the soon to be fulfilled death-wish of the Boy.
