   Summary

   Albus Severus Potter is the black sheep of both the Potter and Weasley families, a truth laid bare when he is sorted into Slytherin against everyone’s expectations. Struggling to navigate life as an outsider in both his family and his new house, Albus finds it impossible to escape the weight of his father's legacy and the expectations placed upon him. His only anchor seems to be the son of his father's school nemesis.

   As tension rises in the magical world and within the Slytherin House, Albus’s increasingly distant behavior raises concerns with his family. Harry Potter fears that his son’s Slytherin peers, particularly the son of his former school nemesis might be leading him down a darker path.
