Magic Knows No Boundaries But Those We Believe In (Harry Potter)

Aside from the butterfly being found in the Triassic (lepidopterans trace their origins to the Jurassic, and butterflies in particular evolved alongside the first flowers in the Cretaceous, damn wizards not paying attention to Palaeontology smh) that whole piece about time travel and sins was rather thought provoking. Excellent work!
 
Chapter 45: Unspeakables Revealed New
Chapter 45: Unspeakables Revealed


"Tom!" He heard Hadrian yell out as soon as he and Albus appeared before him.

Voldemort did not look up from the time keeper to address them.

"What did you do?!" Dumbledore demanded.

"I don't know!" Voldemort said honestly.

"What. Did. You. Do!" Morrigan repeated.

" 't. Know!" Voldemort answered just as emphatically. "Ask that asshole!"

He indicated the former Unspeakable on the other side of the barrier of white light surrounding the trio.

The two turned to Marchbanks.

"Alastor?" Dumbledore asked in a disappointed voice.

"You have your ambitions, I have mine." Alastor's voice, muffled into a ringing sound by the barrier of light.

"Ambitions which have you working with Voldemort here?" Morrigan asked, comprehending the situation immediately. "Which I'm guessing you did just to spite my prophecy?"

"Prophecy?!" Him and Dumbledore both asked at once.

Voldemort's lapse in concentration was catastrophic. A thirteenth film erupted from the top of the timekeeper. This one flew straight up as a pillar of light, forming a tower instead of a dome as the others had.

"It was not a prophecy, it was merely a vision through a crystal ball. A true prediction, I might add." Said Marchbanks. "And as I'm sure you all know, aside from prophecies, all predictions have the potential to be self-defeating if told to the subject. The opposite of a self-fulfilling prophecy."

That's right. Minor predictions can serve more as warnings to avoid disaster than as an immutable portent of it. Unlike prophecies, which were immutable. As good as the word of God himself both to men like Alastor who believed in such, and just as equally to men like Voldemort who did not.

"I saw your fight with him, Tom. And that he would not join you." Morrigan explained.

Ah. And out of pure spite and scientific curiosity he went against the prediction. Voldemort could respect that.

"Well, seeing as we are separated by a full-blown time anomaly, we are at an ends." Said Marchbanks. "I cannot interfere with what you do in there, and you cannot harm me out here. I think I'll go ahead and hit the old, dusty road before you three remedy that problem."

"You must know I will be coming for you." Said Voldemort.

"Get a ticket and get in line." Said Marchbanks. "I do believe me and mine just declared war on the whole of the world. So don't flatter yourself. We aren't worried about you."

With that ominous warning, he apparated away.

"We?" Morrigan asked.

"I think you know the answer already." Albus said. "For a multitude of reasons."

Morrigan had the gall to wear an innocent expression as if he had no idea what Albus was talking about.

"So, what are you thinking?" Morrigan asked. "Impedimenta charm then flee before it blows up?"

"I would prefer to prevent the blowing up entirely. We shall do the vanishing charm trick again." Said Albus.

"Surely it's protected from the vanishing charm." Morrigan offered.

"Not well enough that the two of us together cannot overpower such enchantments." Albus countered.

"But we would wind up destroying Big Ben, and possibly some of the surrounding landmarks. I'm quite fond of the bridge." Morrigan argued. "And of having clothes on."

"What's all this abound destroying London's most famous landmarks and going on a public streaking trip?" Voldemort asked through the precipitous sweat going down his brow.

"Oh, we can create giant, overpowered vanishing charms through a brother wand effect." Morrigan explained. "Which should deal with both the time keeper and the central areas of the films, leaving us living creatures unharmed."

Their clothes and the ground they were standing on, however, would be another story. And it was a long fall to the ground.

"We ought to be able to charm our clothes to be unvanishable." Albus offered. "And pre-emptively cast arresto momentum on ourselves with a delay."

"That ought to work. I don't have confidence in our clothes surviving regardless, and I'm not looking forward to the indecent exposure charge, but it's a sacrifice I guess we'll just have to make." Morrigan said.

"Do charm mine as well, if you would both be so kind." Voldemort asked his new frenemies politely. "And yes, I realize we will have a reckoning once this disaster is dealt with, but we can do it with clothes on. I would prefer not to sexually arouse our headmaster here."

Dumbledore was not amused by the insinuation. Neither was Morrigan, who spoke up in his defense.

"A homophilia joke? Really? In this day and age?" Morrigan asked.

"I do believe it is nineteen ninety-six. I assume in the time you traveled from it is not an acceptable target of humor?" Dumbledore challenged him.

Morrigan laughed.

"Oh right. You're all still under the impression that I'm a time traveler. Well, I will dissuade you of that notion soon enough, but when I have the time to explain in detail. For now, let's skin this cat." Morrigan said.

Voldemort knew he was lying. He had to be. Voldemort needed to believe he was lying. Problem was, Alastor Marchbanks just confirmed his nature as a seer. Could it be he had been telling the truth this entire time and he was just as truly a gifted seer as he seemed? Word had gotten to him that he had some form of telemetry. A lot of his seemingly impossible knowledge could be explained through that. He just didn't want to believe it. There were too many impossibilities.

Hell, he still suspected Morrigan was his son, which made every interaction with him especially awkward. Voldemort was never the most socially savvy, despite what people claimed about his sociopathic charm. As such, he genuinely hated every one of their encounters.

This one less than most. So far, very straightforward.

"So… What exactly is the process here?" Voldemort asked

"We cast the vanishing charm at the object, together, then the vanishing charm goes boom." Morrigan explained. "It has a big enough radius to take out half a city block. So, it should take both the time keeper and the center point of the field."

Sounded like the best plan they were going to come up with to Voldemort. He nodded his agreement to the plan.

"My hands are a little full, but if I can help, let me know how." Voldemort offered.

Morrigan and Dumbledore shared a look before shrugging. The former then considered Voldemort again.

"Speaking of hands, could you shift yours a bit?" Morrigan asked.

Voldemort glanced between his now shaking hands and Morrigan.

"Not without great risk." Voldemort admitted in a great blow to his pride.

"Hmm. Okay, let me grasp it from below." Morrigan said.

Then, to Voldemort's abject horror, Morrigan reached beneath the time keeper and grasped it from the bottom. Then he felt it. Like being bodily tackled and then embraced by somebody else' magical aura. Morrigan enveloped him and the timekeeper with his own internal magic.

That wasn't telemetry. That was something entirely new to the study of magic. This man was a prodigy to rival, nay, surpass both him and Albus.

He really ought to kill the guy before he did so. Surpassing them, that is.

"Okay. I got it. Vanishing ought to work." Morrigan said.

He just did to the device what the sorting hat regularly did to eleven-year-olds. He completely read it, as if it had a mind. He understood its past, present, future and nature. Telemetry wasn't strong enough of a word to describe the ability he just felt Morrigan use. It was beyond anything Voldemort had ever experienced. It was new, it was powerful, and he wanted it.

Morrigan could be completely average, or useless, in every other regard, then with this ability alone surpass Voldemort. He was noticeably above average in most things.

His mind was already running through scenarios on how to end him as soon as the timekeeper crisis was averted, but he was certain they would both have reactions prepared ahead of time. He would need to flee and plan for that. He was too great a threat. Both to Voldemort personally and the world.

"Okay. Vanishing charm. Pick ourselves up. And then the real work begins." Morrigan said gazing out upon the destroyed capital city.

Oh yeah. That was still a thing that needed to be done. Goodbye statute of secrecy! And everybody was going to blame Voldemort for it. He was definitely responsible, but he didn't have to like the fact.

"Okay. Anti-vanishing charms?" Voldemort asked.

They cast the spells, both on their own clothes and on his.

"On three?" Morrigan asked.

"On three." Dumbledore confirmed.

"One." Said Morrigan.

"Two." Said Dumbledore.

"Three!" They said in unison.

Two vanishing charms collided between his and Morrigan's fingers. The man cast the spell with the hand he wasn't using to hold the sphere, and both men hit a bullseye.

The spells went boom, just like Morrigan promised, but he understated the gravity of said boom.

Voldemort felt the entire universe around him, air, stone beneath his feat and magical device in his hand, all disappear. He reached out for support and found Morrigan's hand reaching to grasp him for the same purpose. The man he had, just moments before, conspired to assassinate was now his lifeline and he his.

They held each other like allies instead of as enemies, and together they faded into nothing. They were nowhere. They were everywhere. They had never been and always were.

Simply put, they severely underestimated what the time keeper would do to them both by holding onto it and were both absolute morons for holding onto it.


Prophecy ducked beneath the marble pillar flung at her from the corner of the chamber.

This was a particularly difficult dodge, as gravity had decided to cease working as of late. Somebody, she suspected Life, whoever he or she was, had somehow turned the entire chamber of truth into an antigravity field. One in which they could all swim through the air as if it were water. It was impossible for any of them to fight in. Save for space who swam through it as if it were second nature.

Father time had significantly more difficulty in this unexpected terrain, but less than Prophecy did.

The hyperdecay barrier had long since been torn down, only to be rebuilt in a smaller form around father time while the rest of them got to fighting.

She once again felt the cutting curse remove her head from her shoulders, felt the blood drain from her body and death take her. So she ducked before the spell hit, averting yet another fated death.

"You two really have it out for me." Prophecy mocked.

Love had been gunning for her and solely her this entire time. Probably because of the two on one advantage and because they didn't want to tangle with Time. That and their domain, being the least predictable of all of the domains, made them a pretty bad matchup in theory. Prophecy had the advantage of not only battle precognition – which yes, was a thing, and she was eminently pissed off that Potter had revealed its existence to the world on a lark – and because they weren't breaking their oath.

The 'blue' magic(AN) as people called it, spells fueled by the lust, of the love of a man for his wife, of the devotion and deference of a wife to her husband. These were all terrifying things that these two delved in. And yet they weren't using it. Why? The oath stone was no longer holding them to their neutered state.

Maybe a sense of fair play? Since Prophecy's only abilities in combat really were stock standard spells.

And then they split apart into two like a bacterium. Man and wife were separated, and both bore down on her from either side.

Oh. So, they were trying to capture her. She was definitely the logical choice for capture between her, Space and Time. But they forgot who her friends were.

It was an impressive scissor attack they threw her way. With one on either side of her, even with her foresight telling her the conjured, animated rope of barbed wire was coming from one side and an incendiary sludge curse was coming from the other she couldn't dodge it.

Thankfully, gravity reasserted it's dominance just then and so both of their spells missed the mark as they all tumbled to the ground. They would have missed anyways because Space used one of their infamous switching charms. Switching charms were not supposed to work on human beings. Theirs did. Welcome to the department of mysteries! Here, the rules of magic need not apply.

Prophecy oomphed in a very unladylike way as she swapped places with somebody else.

She saw Life, bleeding profusely from a chest wound. Their unexpected ally, with that even more unexpected antigravity ward, was down to a knee.

What was taking Alastor so long!

No sooner did the complaint enter her mind than did she get her answer. Fright white waves of light flooded through them all. Like an absurdly overpowered patronus. They brought with them not feelings of joy and peace, but feelings of being stretched in all directions, of aging a thousand years and being a child again all at once.

It floored all of them, and Death proved to be an epileptic as he fell into a seizure from it. Was it weird that she actually felt worse about that than the whole trying to kill each other thing? Deliberately harming somebody she could live with, but accidentally? Heartbreaking.

When it was over, Prophecy knew their trial was over.

She felt the weight of the oath stone completely lifted. Not lifted and reapplied over and over again but gone.

Space was the first to get up, and when they removed their hood it was to reveal herself. Something that if she had done while the oath was still in place might have killed her. The woman breathed a deep, freeing breath and ruffled her shocking white hair.

"Well? I showed you mine, won't you show me yours?" Rolanda challenged, looking at her with those sharp, yellow eyes.

Georgia Shunpike removed her hood too and looked to Life and Time.

"Tofty?" Hooch said, surprised at Life's identity.

"I suppose I'm not much of a surprise?" Asked Mrs Marchbanks.

Actually yeah, she was. It seemed a little nepotistic for Alastor to pass the reigns onto his wife like that. She then quickly reapplied the hyperdecay barrier and the quartet of ladies retreated behind it just in time to avoid being incinerated.

"Hooch, how long until you can warp us out of here?" Shunpike asked the woman formerly known as Space.

"Right now." She whispered back.

Rolanda grasped her, Tofty and Marchbanks tightly.

"We will come for you! You have to know that!" The female half of Love yelled at them as she crouched over her unconscious partner.

"Get in line!" Tofty yelled back before reality faded away.

As much as she hated traveling through whatever warping technique it was Hooch invented, it was preferable to getting a South African necklace down here. So, she braced herself as they all ceased to exist, hopefully to reappear later. But that was never a guarantee.


Angus McKinnon picked himself up off of the cold hard ground to find the chamber of Truth full of less-than-faceless unspeakables.

Everybody had removed their hoods. And he did mean everybody. What's more, the cavalry had finally arrived. The remaining staff on site, those who hadn't fled when the oath stone was finally reverted, were there.

He was instantly overcome with a deep suspicion that any one of them could still be traitors.

Two people helped him to his feet.

"Up. Onto your feet songbird." A woman with shocking red hair told him as she helped him to his feet from his left shoulder as a man with an appearance more ancient than Albus Dumbledore took him up on his right.

He stared at the latter, trying to place his face.

"Barry Winkle." He introduced himself. "I'm in charge of the department of Happiness."

Ah. That ever elusive mystery. He turned to the woman with red hair. This one he recognized.

"Muriel Prewitt?" He asked.

She tapped her nose and smiled.

"But you died?" He said.

"So did you and your wife, supposedly, and yet here we all are. And please, call me Death." She insisted.

His wife! He felt so naked without her flesh bound to his. Without embracing her with every fiber of his being and her doing the same to him.

Before he could call out to her, she called out to the room.

"War!" Elspeth McKinnon declared.

Everyone turned to her.

She stood over the oath stone, a conjured knife in her hand.

"Our former colleagues have declared war. Not just on us, but on the world." His wife explained, and she slashed open her palm.

He felt every molecule of her skin separate through their connection.

"I will not rest, I will not dawdle, and I will not slow until I hunt them down. I swear it!" She said, pouring her life liquid onto the oath stone. "To war!"

The oath stone took it and bound both he and her.

God, did he ever love that woman.

I have no idea who these people are, or what importance their history is.

They're all canon. One of them is Ron's aunt. The mckinins were members of the Order of the Phoenix that died. So on and so forth.

Edit: Wait, you don't recognize Madame Hooch, Mrs Shunpike, Professor Tofty and Alastor Marchbanks wife? I mean, they've all featured in this very story.

And that is the downside of reading 25+ stories with diffrent update rates. 😜 You lose track of details.
 
Well, finished reading this tale to the last chapter, and got to admit that I look forward as to Canon Harry's reason to exist within this bizarro universe.

Was it Magic? Fate? Or perhaps something deeper, older, wiser, and distinctly non-human that saw shit coming down their collective way and sought to remedy that situation with a dimensionally displaced alternate version of a deceased boy?

I will admit that some terms coming from the pureblood cast clash somewhat, but they are explained in-universe so they don't stretch out my disbelief that badly. In fact, they enriched it.

It was also quite the good bit of world-building you pulled off there with the pureblood/muggleborn cultural divide, and managed to write something that would offend many readers of different backgrounds equally--like a pro! ;)

So, I tip my hat to your work! :D

That said, thanks for writing this and for sharing it with us readers.

This may be one of the most thoughtful reviews/comments I've ever received in my life. Thank you, friend.
 
Don't usually comment, but this story is really tickling me in all the right ways. I read all of it in more or less one sitting, so sorry if I'm just kind of dumping it all out in one big comment. Will say that its mainly reflecting around chapter 40.

First it really interesting how the wizards perspective are shaped by things that "muggles" would think ancient history. For muggles WW2 is ancient history, a wizard would have seen it and lived through it. People are very much shaped by their experience and so it makes a lot of sense that they find muggles to be backwards, because we must seem so volatile as a people. Like how we bounce between social issues every 10 years or how our politics are must seem completely ridiculous. Though I will say it's a little funny that their throwing stones, considering how their politics seem to be not much better haha.

Though I love that it shows clearly that a lot of their irritation comes from the fact that muggles are in some sense like immigrants, they come to another culture and are welcomed, then they turn around and assume their superiority, even though a lot of concepts that are very recent in muggle culture is age old in wizard culture. In some sense it does seem understandable, because for muggles magic is like how magic is for us, something that belongs in medieval like worlds. So for them to think that magic=medieval, looking down upon the old looking clothing and traditions of the wizarding world is super spot on.

I doubly like that we can kinda see the wizards doing the same thing, just kinda thinking that muggles in britain= all muggles. It shows how wizards, while they might have magic, still fundamentally think like humans. People in general like to put people into neat boxes and then move on with our lives. It's kind of like how Americans just kinda assume that European culture is an homogenous culture, even though that's completely ridiculous. Like when they discuss that only guys are capable of rape and my first thought being like, that's not correct? I thought that because in my country that's literally just not the case and so for a second I forgot this is based out from 1997 Britain.

The only thing I would like some more of is some nuancing, because right now the story is feeling a little bit like muggle bashing? Idk, I feel like every culture has some elements that are obviously not good, but people hold onto for no good reason other than tradition. A typical example in my country, Norway, we have something called the Law of Jante. It's a not great part of our culture, and a big part of why a lot of foreigners don't really understand our cultural norms. Of course that might not be suitable, considering the way the story is moving right now it seems to be focused purely on the wizarding world.

Either way keep up the good work, looking forward to more and sorry for the essay I suddenly typed 2 at night lol.

EXCELLENT catch on several points. Particularly to me painting the purebloods as uncharitable towards muggle society and bunching all of us together. The disconnect IS two ways. Muggleborns don't understand how the longer life expectancy of wixzards paints their point of view, but likewise wizards don't recognize how the shorter life expectancies results in hyperspeed turnover in ideology, culture and ways of thinking. From their perspective Muggles refuse to learn the lessons of the past because they forget them - a VERY valid criticism - and from Muggles perspective wizarding society is at a standstill, never advancing. Both view the other as stagnant, never changing or improving, and both are wrong.

Muggles have shorter lives and thus a shorter memory. Wizards have a longer lifespan and thus are slow to change. Neither is ideal.

But yeah, a large contingency of wizards and witches were born in the 19th century. And you have to admit, humanity has been going absolute apeshit for the last 150 years or so. Culminating in us developing weapons capable of extinquishing the planet many times over again. Could you fucking imagine if a race of sentient chimps, in the span of a few decade, went from playing with sticks to creating wormhole portals and black hole generator weapons? Because that's essentially what they just watched happen.

Also, I didn't touch on it much, but i find it telling the Voldemort rose in the UK of all places. Because Muggles there are.... colonizers. Let's just call them colonizers. As are the muggleborns. That is their mentality. It's not one that people appreciate.

But yes, I am blessed to have such astute readers.

Forgot to confront this. Yes, it is exactly the same way in your country. There is not a single country on the planet where female on male sexual violence is punished appropriately.

In America it's not even a crime, so agencies like the FBI do not keep track of it. This is why when you look it up men make up 99% of perpetrators. Female on male rape is a separate legal classification called "Made to penetrate". The Center for Disease control used to keep track of it, and guess what? Women rape men EXACTLY as often as men rape women. But men are also raped by men, so men are the majority of victims, and that's not even counting the rampant prison rape in my country.

It gets worse. Nonviolent rape, such as coercion or rape under false pretenses(lying about finances or birth control status, etc) is a crime for everybody regardless of sex. Except it's not. Police will almost never arrest, DAs will almost never prosecute, juries will almost never convict and judges will almost never sentence a woman who does it. In fact, judges have made it legal for women to rape under false pretenses outright and decided that the law does not apply to them. It is only rape for a man to lie in order to get sex. A woman who commits paternity fraud to her husband who continues sleeping with her thinking that child is his? Not rape(Even though the law says it is.) Or claiming to be on birth control when she's not? Also not rape.(Even though the law says it is.) A man lying about having a vasectomy or how much money he makes to have sex? Rapist.(which he is). To prison and the sex offender registry, where he belongs. It's so bad that, just from paternity fraud, about a quarter of all women in America with children would be convicted of rape if the law was applied evenly. Yes, about a quarter of children in America are born from paternity fraud. And you thought America was a shithole before, huh?

Now. I would challenge you to look up the statistics in your country. Particularly perpetrators and victims. Men and women really are equal, especially when it comes to crime. If women are not half of all preparators, and men are not half of all victims, then everything I just said is true in your country too.

Will preface this by first mentioning that I am from Norway.

100 % agree on this point, I wasn't commenting on the actual prosecution of rape, but more a letter of the law kind of thing. I meant that both male and female rapist in my country get punished under the same law, not that they get punished an equal amount under that law. In fact rape is almost never punished in my country, we are at the bottom of convictions rates in Europe, like we prosecute about 1 % of all cases or something like that. It's just way too hard to concretely prove and the needed amount of evidence is almost impossible to gather.

As far as I know about 10 times the amount of women report being raped as the amount of men, but this is purely the amount of people reporting it. There are almost certainly a lot of "dark" numbers, doubly so for men.

Prison rape probably isn't a huge issue, since our prisons are quite a bit different from most countries, though not to say it doesn't happen at all.

As for the lying about being on contraception / not using similar things, as far as I know there are straight up no laws one way or the other. Its not illegal for a man to lie about having a vasectomy and also not illegal for a woman to lie about using plan B. Same thing with paternity fraud, its not criminal, though you might have to pay a "honor raising fee". Is this messed up, yes, but to be honest its just, as far as my research on the internet could tell, not that big a problem in Norway. (purely refering to paternity fraud)

To be honest it's a little hard to compare studies made in America to the situation in Norway as there will definitely be similarities, but America is also very, very, very different from Norway.

Its not illegal for a man to lie about having a vasectomy and also not illegal for a woman to lie about using plan B. Same thing with paternity fraud, its not criminal, though you might have to pay a "honor raising fee". Is this messed up, yes, but to be honest its just, as far as my research on the internet could tell, not that big a problem in Norway. (purely refering to paternity fraud)

To be honest it's a little hard to compare studies made in America to the situation in Norway as there will definitely be similarities, but America is also very, very, very different from Norway.

I disagree on the shadow stats. Rape is just incredibly rare there. In america false accusations of rape outnumber legitimate ones 40 to 1 in some places. We are the false accusation capital of hte world, with more accusations than india. A tiny minority every result in charges being pressed.

And I disagree on it being hard to prove. Its one of the easiest crimes in the world to prove and convict on, to the point about a third of men convicted of such are eventually proven innocent and/or are convicted with zero evidence, just testimony.

And those studies about the difference in reporting? Any that use the same metric for both men and women usually have them at about the same. so yes, your country is lying. Everywhere is pretty much equal. But to be fair, women tend to victimize children more than adult men who cannot report it.

And paternity fraud is between 1/5th and 1/3rd everywhere in the World. Every time a study is done on it, it gets into that range. And you better believe its high in Norway. France is probably the highest, as evidenced by the fact it is illegal to do paternity testing without the mothers consent to protect them from the consequences. But if your country doesn't have that data, it's because the data is very bad. In america the blood bank and paternity testing companies both released the data anonymously at about 1/3rd. Check with paternity testing companies in norway and blood banks to see if they did the research there too.
 
I hope u don't have a big problem with me arguing back, if not you can just answer this post with saying discussion done // dont answer at all and i wont talk about this shit again, don't want to derail the story. Doubly so considering I really enjoy it!

Either way: Onwards!

Sorry I don't quite understand your point or what your trying to say. Rape is rare in Norway? Either way I don't think I was arguing against you, what I was trying to say is that women do report rape 10 times more often than more than men do (in my country). Its very likley that men report a lot less due to social pressure and shit. I wont comment on the false accusations, because I believe you, especially considering the US lol.

And I disagree on it being hard to prove. Its one of the easiest crimes in the world to prove and convict on, to the point about a third of men convicted of such are eventually proven innocent and/or are convicted with zero evidence, just testimony.
Assuming you mean to say that its easy to convict, with people being convicted on insufficent proof, and I wont disagree when cosidering America. All i am saying is that it depends on the laws in the different countries. In my country people don't seem to be convicted of rape, almost at all. As mentioned last time we convict like 1% of people that are reported and in most of the cases its due to some kind of tangible evidence, (video, extreme violence, exectra) being present. But i agree that in places where its easy too convict, where the proof is simply a witness statement from the offended party, that this would lead to a lot of false convictoins. Sometimes I really wish we had truth potions, would make the whole thing a lot easier.

As for the paternity fraud, while I freely admit to only spending a couple of hours searching, I still mostly found that most studies place the number a lot lower than what you are suggesting. (https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0165178123000938#bib0010) Suggests that studies find the estimates to be around 1-10%, with (https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0002929722000131) this study finding 3% of people discovering their biological parent not being who they thought. And while I am not a big fan of it, (curse you middle school teachers brainwashing me into beliving its a terrible source), Wikipedia claims that https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paternity_fraud around 1%-12% for studies conducted during the late 1990 across different countries, with mexico being the highest at around 12 %. It also goes on to say that if the paternity was in dispute, this amount skyrockets to around 30 %, equal to the number you suggested. This study seems to back up that number: (https://scholarship.law.tamu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=2065&context=facscholar) with it saying that for men with low confidence in their paternity, they are in fact not the father around 30% of the time, while for people with high confidence they are not the father around 2-3% of the time.

I will admit that even after searching I couldn't find the study from the American blood bank claiming 30 %, I only found this (https://www.vandtlaw.com/surprising-paternity-fraud-facts/) law firm and I couldn't find the source so if you simply have it on hand I would love to look at it.

As for paternity fraud in Norway, even after spending almost an hour searching couldn't find anything so I guess there are just no studies out there for it, time to pray for my fellow Norwegians lol. Like you might be more correct that the numbers would be on the higher amount, since https://www.sv.uio.no/psi/forskning/prosjekter/seksualvaneundersokelsen/ this source finds that we cheat a suprising amount. With 26 % of men and 18 % of girls having cheated in their lifetimes. Though the study is in Norwegian, so if you want to read it you might have to use some google translate wizardry.

Hope you dont get too annoyed by my long ass answers, caught me in the worst time, when i am studying for a really hard exam and dont want to study. Curse you electrical powersystems 2! Either way, hope you have a good day!
