The story of his sister and the destruction of his immediate family was earth shattering for those who believed in him but vindicating for his brother, Aberforth. As it was compiled, like everything else in the book, from Albus' own journal where he had admitted he was the one to torture the five year old girl before confunding the muggle boys into taking the blame for hurting her. He'd done it according to his journal because he was angry with her over having to watch her for the afternoon while his Mum was putting up the vegetables from their garden for the winter and she'd been bugging him. His journal had gloated over how easy it was to torture his baby sister and blame the muggles for it. How gullible everyone was to believe mere muggles could hurt her so badly as to destabilize her core like that. And the author of the tell-all book made sure to include the actual journal passages in Albus' own very recognizable handwriting.
His journal also exposed his involvement with Tom Riddle and who Tom had grown up to become. Very little doubt was left in the readers mind about why Tom had become the Dark Lord he did. And it made it clear Tom was one of the lucky orphans who had entered Hogwarts Halls while the Castle was under the dominion of Albus Dumbledore. Many other orphans had entered that school only to leave it broken and destitute because Albus had discovered who they were and stolen the inheritance they should have been able to claim as adults long before they could do so. And most of those orphans never got the chance to tell anyone what the kindly old man had done to them. They disappeared just as quietly as they had appeared in the British magical society and no one had ever even thought to question their disappearance.
But through that exposition, his changes to Hogwarts as well as the reasons behind those changes were also brought out of the shadows. And of course his dealings with their hero, Harry James Potter came to light as well. All the people he'd either killed or caused to be killed were listed with the date and manner of their demise as well as the reason why Albus felt they deserved to die. Including all those orphans he'd defrauded of their rightful inheritances.
Needless to say, by the time the book was finished, no one who read it really wanted to know where Albus Dumbledore was. Those people now understood Albus Dumbledore had never had the best interest of their world at heart. The only interest he'd ever held close to his heart was his own. None of them ever questioned what became of him.
He had a few die-hard supporters who refused to hear a word against him and still referred to him as a Great Man or the Light Lord. But those were the people who'd been making a comfortable living off his largess and didn't understand that largess was never his to extend to them. A few of them tried to garner interest in the Ministry to discovering his whereabouts but when it was pointed out that there were still charges pending against him from Hogwarts which could be added to with the right questions about matters exposed in that tell-all book, they quickly dropped the matter. because once again, for the British magical people it didn't matter if the book was true or not. What mattered was it could be referred to with the line or page where something was stated found and pointed out to anyone who questioned it.
Molly stayed angry with Harry until Arthur finally worked his way through the wording of the betrothal contract he'd signed for his daughter to Harry Potter. When he realized it actually tied her to Albus as he was the only person the old man could arrange a contract for, the wind went out of Molly's sails. Much as she believed in the goodness of Albus Dumbledore, she wouldn't have ever agreed to tie her only daughter to the man. he was far too old for a girl Ginny's age. When the contract had turned Black she'd been so very angry but when Arthur figured that out, she changed her mind and decided having it go black was cause for celebration instead. Ginny, her dear sweet daughter, was free again.
When Ginny and Ron came home for the summer after that long and explosive year, they'd sat down with their Mother and explained to her how they'd taken the placement exams and were now just finishing their third year of schooling. They would need a further four years at Hogwarts before they were ready to graduate by when term began in the fall they would be taking Ancient Runes instead of Divinations as Harry had shown them Runes actually did have practical applications.
Molly had sat down and cried. It hurt her pride that her babies had been so caught up in that sick old man's ploys they'd hurt their own education. That they'd done so many bad things to another child their age. That they'd hurt Harry who they'd both told her many, many times they considered to be their friend and someone they cared for greatly. Plus, she'd now gotten a very good look at the marks Harry had placed on them for their treatment of him during their years at Hogwarts. And unlike the two teens she did know what those marks said as she had taken Ancient Runes when she'd attended Hogwarts. But once the pair had walked her through everything they'd done and been involved in that would or did hurt Harry, not even she could deny they'd gotten off lightly.
But Hermione Granger was a different story. She was an angry young woman who simply couldn't understand the life she had dreamed of having one day would never happen. Nor could anyone get her to understand her marked countenance was the result of her own actions against Harry Potter who was supposed to have been her friend. Her first friend and the boy who had saved her life. She was arrested for trespassing three times at Privet Drive before her parents finally decided the only way to get her to stop was to move out of the country. So they sold their practice and packed up their home after applying to transfer their licenses to Canada. When the transfers came in approved, they grabbed their daughter and boarded Air Canada never to return to Britain so long as their daughter was fixated on getting revenge on Harry Potter.
They settled in Manitoba and opened a new practice where Hermione worked the front desk after school hours. She was still home schooled through tutors but these tutors were Canadian and had no idea what her background was or why she had a rune tattooed on her cheek. Nor did they ask about it. She took to the move well and her parents began to relax thinking their daughter had finally moved past her traumatic fifth Hogwarts year. They were wrong. Three days after her eighteenth birthday Hermione boarded a plane back to England and tried to enter Diagon Alley. Her oath, given to the British Ministry, to never again enter the British magical world took effect and killed her with her wand still raised to the entry portal behind the Leaky Cauldron. Her parents never discovered what became of her beyond the fact she went back to England to settle things with Harry Potter once and for all.
The End
