Summary
After-life as a timey-wimey ball of of magical stuff.
Gellert needs to come to terms with his past, that he mustn't blame Albus for any failures, but to blame himself. This will be extremely difficult for him, as he is accustomed to being unapologetic for his brilliance and behaviour. He needs to consider the serious effects of his words and deeds. Meanwhile, Albus must forgive himself regarding past mistakes and the enduring guilt he has carried with him regarding the death of his sister. To do this, they are trapped in Purgatory (a village of trapped souls) until they achieve these goals and thus capable of ascending to higher enlightenment (Paradise).
Other canon deaths are accounted for in Purgatory, but the focus is not on them or what they have to learn.
