no akash its not a wand...

by usage i meant not literal use...but haha how to put it ...ahmm..ok yeah...it means the answer finds use in muggle lexicon...like i suppose every muggle who has not read HP would def have come across it...so just take usage as use as a lexicon... thats why i used usage and not use..but yeah..maybe i should have been clear in the riddle...

and i just edited the first word..actually i had used "myths" originally but then changed it to magic..but now ive reverted.. 😆..as yeah myths fit better 😃

ok, here's one from me..

its simple..if u know my style😉..i generally base by riddles(majority times though not always) on stuff that has inspired/intrigued me...i always wanted to make one on this..now..i've given the clues even before riddling 😆

ive truncated last two lines which were give-aways..will reveal if u dont get in a few tries...

so, shall i expect the answer in a jiffy?😊

enjoy--😃

Myths or Muggles, you'll find my mention in either world,

Phoenix is the mythical bird appearing in Greek folklores and Harry Potter...Phoenix also finds mention in the Muggle world...Phoenix City in Arizona..Phoenix Basketball Team..Phoenix Malls...etc etc...

Past or Future, my Present would cling to both.

A Phoenix(in present) will have had a Past(as its born from its ashes) and will have a Future(it will burst into flames to be re-born again).

My assistance saved the conqueror-of-death from death,

Fawkes, the phoenix, pierced the Basilisk's eye in the Chamber of Secrets to save Harry(conqueror-of-death) from instant death.

Also, at a besiege-cusp, I turned the tables in a breath.

Again, Fawkes swiftly helped Dumbledore escape amid hostility and turn the situation in his favour in the OoP.

There are lessons to be learnt from my life,

to bounce back mightier, when the worst is rife.

A phoenix teaches us a valuable lesson to never forget our potential and reform ourselves(when phoenix reborns again with renewed strength) when we are at our lowest.(when the phoenix is dying)

additional lines:

I serve as a healer, attacker, and a soother,

Phoneix tears: Healer; Phoenix claws n Beak: Attacker; Phoenix Song: Soother

The story would've ended long back sans my charm in the two brothers.

Phoenix feather from Fawkes(its charm) in Harry's and Voldy's wands(the wands were brothers as they shared the same core from the same bird)prolonged the story.
