HP Magic Biography

In fact, before Albus and I left Hogwarts to start different lives, we wanted to do what was then a popular world tour...to visit and observe foreign wizards.

However, the evening before our journey began, Albus's mother, Kedla, passed away, and as the head of the family, Albus had to provide for the family.

I put off my departure for a long time to pay respects to Kedra's funeral. Then go on this lonely journey alone.

There is no doubt that Albus will not be traveling with me...he has a brother and a sister to look after, and they have very little money.

We had little contact in those days, and I wrote to Albus, probably unconsciously, describing the wonders and stories I had seen in my travels, from narrowly escaping fire-breathing beasts in Greece to The experiments of the alchemists in Egypt.

His letters to me say little about his day-to-day life, which I imagine must have been frustrating and uninteresting for such a talented wizard. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

While I was still soaking up my travels, I was saddened to hear that another tragedy befell Dumbledore: the death of his sister, Ariana.

While Ariana has been frail for a long time, it's another blow not long after losing her mother, and it still has a big impact on the brothers.

All these unfortunate personal affairs of Albus...combined with the lucky ones that happened to me...made Dumbledore feel that he was responsible for Ariana's death (which of course had absolutely nothing to do with him), and they gave Dumbledore left an indelible mark.

In fact, I only found out after I went back that such a young man had gone through as much as an older man could.

Albus was a little more reserved and a little less carefree than before. As if God had added to his pain, the loss of Ariana had not brought Albus and Aberforth closer, but had drawn them further apart. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

one way or another,

Since then, he has stopped talking about his parents and Ariana, and neither have his friends.

It was as if all the pain in the past was just a reflection of his success in the next few years.

Dumbledore's numerous contributions to magical scholarship, including the discovery of twelve uses for dragon's blood, will benefit generations to come. Likewise, he who became the Wizengamoshi showed great wisdom in many trials. Many say that there is still no wizarding duel comparable to the one between Dumbledore and Grinwald in 945, and all witnesses have written that they watched these two brilliant wizards fight The fear and awe felt.

Dumbledore's successes, and the importance of those successes in the wizarding world, are recorded in the history of magic as a turning point alongside the introduction of the International Statute of Secrecy and the downfall of the Shame Not to Be Named lord . \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Albus Dumbledore was never conceited, he could have benefited from anyone, but it was mean and pointless, I believe those early setbacks gave him a noble personality and compassion.

By now, I can't believe that I would lose such a friend, but my loss is certainly not comparable to that of the entire wizarding world. He has been called the most inspiring and beloved headmaster Hogwarts has ever seen, and he is still alive in people's hearts. For so long he worked to make things better, and to the end of his life must have been more than happy to lend a helping hand to a little boy with dragon rash, like the day I met him...

At this point, Harry had finished reading, but he was still staring closely at the photo next to the obituary: Dumbledore was wearing his familiar, kind smile, but his piercing eyes, through his The double half-moon glasses, even in newspapers, can give Potter a strong impression, as bright as stars, condensed, and captivating. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

However, there was a sense of shame mixed in with Harry's grief.

In fact, Harry had always thought he knew Dumbledore well, but after he read this obituary, he had to realize that he never knew him.

Whenever Harry thought of Dumbledore, he jumped out of the stately, elderly man with the silver head he knew.

Neither he nor anyone else had any idea of ​​a young Dumbledore, it was like trying to imagine a stupid Hermione or a friendly wreck.

Furthermore, it never occurred to Harry to ask about Dumbledore's past, no doubt it would be strange, even reckless. And after all, the legendary duel between Dumbledore and Grinwald has become popular knowledge, and Harry didn't think to ask Dumbledore what kind of duel it was, let alone his other achieved. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

No, they just keep talking about Harry, Harry's past, Harry's future, Harry's plans... It seems that for Harry now, although his future is full of dangers and changes, he has missed it Those irreplaceable opportunities to ask questions about Dumbledore himself. Even the only personal question he ever asked the Headmaster, Dumbledore didn't answer him honestly: What did you see when you looked in the magic mirror?

Me? I see myself holding a pair of thick wool socks.

A pair of thick wool socks from God!

As far as this obituary is concerned, what Dumbledore saw was definitely not that simple.

Fan Lin once discussed some things with him, and accidentally said about the experience of Fan Lin and Dumbledore looking for Horcruxes.

Voldemort's magic had caused Dumbledore to lose himself for a long time, which was terrible, and, it is reported, it was left behind by Voldemort as a teenager. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

However, Harry noticed another message, Dumbledore was lost, and the illusion always shows what a person desires most in his heart, just like Boggart will target your fear.

Harry's own is a dementor, Ron is a giant spider, and Van Lin and Hermione are each other's corpses...

Of course, things might change now, and Harry knew exactly what he was afraid of.

Ginny?

What about... Dumbledore?

Everyone's longing and fear come from important people or things, Harry once asked, and Fan Lin only replied that you will know later.

Ariana, Aberforth, or, Grindelwald?

Harry thought for a long time, tore the obituary out of the Daily Prophet, folded it in volume one of Practical Defensive Magic and Its Restraint against the Dark Arts, and put the rest of the paper in Toss it in the trash, turn around and face the room: it's much tidier already. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

The only thing left outside was today's Daily Prophet, still on his bed, and on top of it, the shard of the broken mirror.

Harry crossed the room, removed the mirror shard from today's Daily Prophet, and opened the paper.

When he picked up the rolled newspaper that had arrived by owl mail early in the morning, he only glanced at the headlines, saw nothing about Voldemort, and tossed it aside.

Harry was sure that the Ministry of Magic would ban the Daily Prophet from publishing news about Voldemort. But now, suddenly, he saw what he had missed because of it.

At the bottom center of the first edition there was a small message, complete with a picture of Dumbledore, that seemed to have been thrown out hastily: Dumbledore - the final truth? The shocking story of the flawed genius of the greatest wizard of his generation has been taken seriously by many over the past week. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Rita Skeeter strips away the popular façade, the silver-bearded sage, to reveal his chaotic childhood, lawless youth, lifelong family struggle, and Dumbledore. The secret that Lidona took to the grave: Why did this man so easily pass up the chance to be Minister of Magic and be content with being a headmaster?

What is the true purpose of that mysterious organization known as the Order of the Phoenix? How did Dumbledore face his death? And many, many other questions like these have been explored in Rita Skeeter's latest explosive biography, The Life and Lies of Albus Dumbledore, thirteenth edition, Bell. Interview with Ray Brithwaite.

In an instant, Harry's face became extremely ugly.

Harry tore open the paper to find page thirteen.

At the top of the post was another familiar face for Harry: a woman with bejeweled glasses, her curly blond hair carefully manicured, her teeth clearly showing a triumphant smile, and she is photographed Wagging a finger at Harry. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Harry tried not to look at the disgusting picture as much as he could, and read on.

In my personal opinion, Rita Skeeter is much gentler and warmer than her sharp reputation would suggest.

After hailing me in her cozy corridor, she ushered me straight into the kitchen for tea and a slice of heavy oil cake, and what followed, needless to say, was a spirited conversation.

Of course, Dumbledore is every biographer's dream, Skeeter said, such a long and fulfilling life. I guarantee that my book will be the first of many biographies to come.

Skeeter really hit the point.

Her nine-hundred-plus-page tome was written just four weeks after Dumbledore's mysterious death in June. I asked her how she managed to achieve this lofty feat.

\u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Oh, when you've been a reporter for as long as I have, you know that extreme work is just an instinct. I know the wizarding world is clamoring for the whole story, and I want to be the first to meet their needs .”

I referred to the recently circulated comment made by the Wizengamot's special adviser and longtime friend of Dumbledore's, Effia Dogo: Skeeter's book contains more than That's a lot for a picture of a chocolate frog.

Skeeter laughed. Dear Dogo! I remember interviewing him a few years ago about Mermaid Rights, God! He was so stupid, it was like we were sitting at the bottom of Lake Windermere and he kept telling me to be careful Salmon.

But those condemnations of Efia Dogo had an impact in many places. Did Skeeter really think that just four weeks was enough to gain information about Dumbledore's long and extraordinary life? \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Oh dear, Skeeter smiled and knuckled me affectionately, of course you know how much you can get for a big bag of galleons, a way of never being turned down, and a nice pen. News! People are queuing up to expose Dumbledore's stain! You know, not everyone thinks he's that good...he pissed off a lot of important people. Old crook Dogo will be stripped of his A mantle of sublime, for I had acquired a source that many journalists would have traded their wands for...a figure who never spoke publicly, but was a very dear figure in Dumbledore's lawless youth. The aforementioned public biography of Skeeter does suggest that those who firmly believe that Dumbledore's life was flawless must prepare for the blows to come.

So what, I ask, is the greatest surprise she uncovered?

Don't ask now, Barry. I won't reveal any highlights until you buy my book! Skeeter laughed, But I can guarantee that those who still believe that Dumbledore is as innocent as his beard would have been slapped in the face! Let's see, he's been heard vehemently against You-Know-Who, but would never have dreamed of dabbling in the Dark Arts himself in his youth! As a wizard who advocated tolerance in his later years, when young But definitely not a big-hearted person! Yes, Albus Dumbledore has an extremely dark past, not to mention his filthy family that he concealed by studying hard and avoided mentioning. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

I asked Skeeter if she was referring to Dumbledore's brother Aberforth, who had been convicted by the Wizengamot fifteen years earlier for a crime involving the misuse of magic by minors.

Oh, the Aberforth thing was just the last of a lot of ugliness, Skeeter said, laughing, No, no, I was talking about a younger brother who wasted his life, or even worse than his Muggle fathers are much more serious matters... Although Dumbledore could not calm either of them by any means, they were both accused by the Wizengamot. Still! It was he who intrigued me My mother and sister, unearthed a bit of a well-covered scandal...though, as I said, you'll have to wait until Chapters 9-12 for all the details. All I can tell you now No doubt Dumbledore never told anyone the story of his broken nose.

Although the family scandal was revealed, Skeeter couldn't deny Dumbledore's brilliance in many magical inventions, right? \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

He had brains, admits Skeeter, although there are many doubts as to whether the accomplishments now assumed to be his were really his full due. As I reveal in chapter sixteen, A. F. Dillon Spey claims to have discovered eight uses of dragon's blood long before Dumbledore 'borrowed' his paper.

But, with all due respect, the importance of some of Dumbledore's accomplishments cannot be denied. What about that famous incident where he beat Grindelwald?

Oh, I'm glad you're talking about Grindelwald now, Skeeter said with a faint smile, I'm afraid those who naively believed in Dumbledore's big A bomb... or rather a dung bomb. A very nasty trick indeed. I would say, don't be so sure about the legendary duel. After reading my book, people may Forced to admit that Grindelwald just conjured a white handkerchief from the end of his wand, and then it was over!

Skeeter refuses to reveal more about the plot, so we turn to the relationships that most fascinate her readers.
