    Summary

    On the 10.02.1929, the world draws a breath when lives hangs in the balance. The vision has come to pass as Gellert Grindelwald foresaw it, though, in the after, that is of fairly little consequence. There is only Death, and his antidote, a life of torment. The spark grew to flame, and the inferno consumed it all. There is only ashes, now.

    Meanwhile, two unlikely teams attempt their utmost to ensure the survival of their friends- nay, family, learning a great many things about those they love so fiercely. If all else fails, one can always rely on one's great-aunt. One's great-cousin! One's... godchild and adopted family? Or... on one's mother...? One's grandpa? Or one's... half-sibling?! Wait, we're getting ahead of ourselves.

    Explore a new era between the lowest of lows and the highest of highs, spanning from Hogwarts to Nurmengard, and India to Ilvermorny, from second chances under Parisian starlight to dragonfyre in Hungary, from a crypt in Yorkshire to the bowels of Hogsmeade. After all, many mysteries await.

    And, maybe, just maybe, there is something to the Dumbledore family legend, a companion coming to any member in need. And in direst need, perhaps some can simply become phoenixes themselves.

    Summary

    What precisely happens when a spark turns to a flame? It is 18:16 in the afternoon on a sunny late September Saturday in 1928, and Albus Dumbledore has once more done the unthinkable – attach himself lips-first to the man who happens to be the love of his life, and his biggest enemy simultaneously.

    Although, this, of course, is a lie. They are neither, and both, and so much less, and so much more. They ARE. They are! They are... something? Well, Gellert Grindelwald quite certainly knows what they are, and are to be. So does Albus. Pity, only, that these two [imbeciles] never do have a heart-to-heart to see whether their opinions for once actually align...

    Accompany them as they fool the ministries on numerous occasions, break people out of prison, fight for the rights of Lycanthropes, dance at a variety of balls, explore the concept of exile, eat, of course, numerous delicacies, make ground-breaking discoveries, commit crimes and do right by people, meet old friends and make new enemies, and just overall somehow stay alive through it all.

    But beware: Not all fae-tale stories have a happy ending...
