SPOILER!!: Hogwarts Timeline - bc if I don't write it down, I will forget it all happened

Primary Years - The cutest terror was born.
Kinsay Cassandra James knows nothing but love. On November 27 2090, she was born and, subsequently, adopted by a family that would love her unconditionally for the rest of time. She grew up surrounded by loving aunts, uncles, and cousins. When she was just a baby, Alexa Cambridge (a longtime friend of her mother's) and her daughter, Emmerson, were invited to stay at the James' cottage for some time. During this period, Kinsay and Emmerson shared a room and forged a friendship rivaled by no other. It was a sad day when Emm moved out, but the two continued to be inseparable ever since. Best friends forever.

When Kinsay started showing signs of magic, she was enrolled at Stark School (a wizarding primary school headed by Isadora Stark) alongside Best Friend Emmerson Cambridge, Emma Rider, and Samuel Summers. The four of them, along with Matthew Rider-Mae, another longtime friend, formed their own group (SKEEM) and together they could conquer the world. Or at least, Hogwarts.
