  Summary

  Regulus Black was supposed to be a footnote in the war.

  And that's exactly what he became.

  (AKA another fic about Regulus' death, because I haven't found one exactly to my liking yet so I decided to write it.)

  The world of Harry Potter is owned by JK Rowling, unfortunately. I do not support her and her ideals.
