---------------------------- Background ---------------------------- Serenity doesn’t remember her life from before she was three. What she does recall is being dropped off on the doorstep of the Ministry of Magic with a note clutched in her hands. Scared, she was found by one of the workers and ushered inside.
A full medical check-up revealed that she was severely malnourished and she spent a few weeks in St. Mungo’s recovering.
The note was a simple one, written by a self-writing quill so as to prevent any handwriting being recognised, and basically said that the nameless girl was a Seer and that they didn't know how to deal with her; she had been abandoned without any sort of identification.
Once it became clear that the girl was not just a Seer but a powerful one that allowed her not only to see the future at times but get an accurate representation of people's past, the Ministry decided to make her 'theirs', so that she would end up working for them when she was older. One of the workers in the Department of Mysteries - Sally Newman - ended up being assigned as her caretaker and, falling in love with the girl, adopted her and named her Serenity.
Almost every day growing up, Serenity would meet up with different people from the ministry and taught different coping mechanisms as well as how to control her abilities and whatnot. To say she was forced to mature very quickly is an understatement; Serenity never had much of a childhood at all. Once in awhile, when Sally had an off day and Serenity didn't have any lessons, they would visit the beach or take a short trip somewhere. These were Serenity's favourite memories, as they were the only times she could act like a child.
When she got her letter to Hogwarts, there was a mini debate between the ministry staff and her mother before, ultimately, it was decided that she would be allowed to attend – if she was accompanied by a house elf at all times for her safety.
