The cleanup had been extensive to say the least. It was exhausting, both physically and mentally, as well as being rather taxing on everybody’s magic, Hermione included. She had worked with Professor McGonagall to develop stronger wards and some new protective charms; Harry had been bombarded with questions by basically everyone who wanted to know just how he had survived Lord Voldemort again. Rita Skeeter was taking liberties with her names for Harry now, going from the simple "Chosen One’ to "The-Boy-Who-Lived-Then-Died-And-Lived-Again" something Malfoy took delight in reminding him whenever they crossed paths in the rebuilt school.
