Chapter 22
Harry sighed in relief seeing the ashy remains of his foe, and the groan that went up from what remained of Voldemort's followers was almost completely drowned out by the cheers of joy. Harry noticed witches and wizards attempting to apparate away, likely hoping to gain some distance before they were hunted and imprisoned or killed. Some were succeeding, but many of them were being stunned, blasted down, or cut down before they could flee. Harry couldn't even care that some of those trying to escape were being cut down with lethal spells. They had made their beds, backing Voldemort, and he couldn't
He glanced around for those he really cared about, happy to see that Jason, Alicia, Harry, Ginny and Sirius were all still standing around him. He glanced around, feeling a weird bit of sadness to see Grindelwald's broken form. Alica and Ginny had already moved over to where Katie was on the ground and was tending to her, but overall, she seemed ok.
Harry didn't even try to assist with taking down Ministry fighters or Death Eaters, and simply walked over to Katie with the rest of his family. Ginny smiled at him and she got up and he pulled her into a hug, reveling in the knowledge that they were finally done. He felt a weight lift off his soul.
"We suffered a lot of losses out here," Katie said with a grimace. "I'm worried about Neville. Lestrange really did a number on him. Grindelwald seemed to heal him before getting him out of here, but I don't know if he survived."
Harry watched as his friend's faces contorted with sorrow, as they all thought about who they knew they had lost or who might be on the edge of death. Harry could at least take heart in that his wife and godfather were here with him, but how much had his friends and family sacrificed to stay and fight with him?
"Mum was hurt real bad . . ." Isabelle said with a whimper. "I'm not sure she's going to make it."
"Jace and I need to get to the field hospital," Alicia said, with worry in her eyes. "We can help."
Jason nodded, and without another word, he wrapped his arm around Katie's waist to support her and he, Izzy, and Alicia shadow traveled away.
Harry looked at Sirius and Ginny.
"Sirius, get to the castle and see if they've taken the castle yet, spread the news, and see who among the leadership are still alive."
Sirius nodded with a slight grin, probably at Harry ordering him around and he shadow traveled away. Harry turned back to his wife, who was looking at Amelia, Remus, and Tonks who were making their way towards them.
"I can't believe it's finally over," Amelia said, sounding a bit in awe. "The Dark Lord has finally been vanquished."
"Your world is now yours to handle," Harry said firmly. "I hope you reestablish your government wisely."
"Because we will not be assisting," Ginny said fiercely.
Amelia nodded. "Of course. You've done more than enough. You fulfilled your end of the bargain."
"The end of the slave contract," Ginny muttered.
Amelia at least had the decency to look a bit abashed as she walked off to take control of the those that had remained at the gate. Harry knew she'd set up a guard shift and then try to organize those who could help gather bodies, search for the injured, and take control of those that had been captured.
"Harry . . . I don't know how we'll ever be able to thank you," Remus said, looking beyond proud, and Harry's spirits lifted slightly to see that he had his arm wrapped around Dora's waist.
"You can thank me by not squandering this," Harry said with a grin. "Be good to each other, yeah?"
Dora grinned as Remus sheepishly nodded.
"Good," Ginny said with a nod. "We also expect invitations when you two finally tie the knot," Ginny said with a grin.
Dora nodded eagerly. "Of course!"
Harry turned back to Ginny. "Let's all four of us go check on the castle. It's time to find out who survived and then start the preparations to go home."
Ginny nodded when she felt pressure pulling on her arm, and turned to see Harry being dragged back towards a familiar black hole.
Remus and Dora both gawked at it, while Ginny didn't fight it as much and pulled herself in and hugged into Harry's chest. He was still fighting it, but losing ground, just as before.
"Tell everyone that we're being sent back," Ginny yelled to Dora and Remus. "Tell them the contact is fulfilled!"
Remus and Dora nodded dumbly as Harry and Ginny were both pulled into the magical breach in dimensions.

Jason and Alicia were working tirelessly along with other volunteer healers to try and help as many of the injured as they could. Apollo, Artemis, and Fawkes were all flying around, offering tears where they could, but Jason knew the three phoenixes were having to be careful because it wouldn't be long before they'd run dry for a while.
Seeing the dead that they'd been unable to save had been hard, and it didn't help as various dead resistance members were brougt in and set off in a space not far away, so that they were accounted for and away from the dead Death Eaters.
Jason had truly felt a blow to his heart seeing Minerva, Molly, Arthur, Savage, and Mad-Eye's bodies. He couldn't help but wish that he could have prevented Mad-Eye from dying in this world. Sometimes even worse than the dead though were some of the injured. Fleur and Kingsley weren't terribly injured and had been healed enough to get out of their way fairly easily, but Fred was touch and go. He'd already had to be resuscitated twice, with Jamie crying out in pain and agony each time. Neville's leg was gone and it wasn't coming back. They'd managed to stem the bleeding and saved his life, but he was going to be forever marked by this conflict, and Jason could only hope his old friend would be able to adapt, especially with the support of his friends and family.
One of the hardest was Jason's mother. Lestrange had done a number on Isla when he'd stabbed into her abdomen and basically ripped her open. His dagger had cut deep and nicked her spinal cord. She was alive, but until she woke up, they were unsure of how much damage had been done to his mother's nervous system. It could be nothing, or she could be completely unfeeling and unmoving.
Daphne, and Alicia's father in law were both near Isla, both desperately hoping for the best, hoping she'd wake up. Daphne wasn't very close to her own family, and Alicia knew losing Isla would hit Daphne hard. Not as hard as it would hit Jason, Isabelle, or Alex of course, but still hard.
Alicia wanted to go and comfort her sister who was still holding onto Fred's hand for dear life, but she knew she was better used healing others, and besides, Angelina and George were both doing their best to comfort Jaime.
The doors to their makeshift hospital opened up and Dora and Remus rushed in, looking a bit shocked.
"Harry and Ginny just disappeared into a dark magical portal," Remus said. "They said the contract had been fulfilled."
Alicia smiled and let out a sigh, knowing indeed they were free to go home. That was proof. Though she was sure Harry and Ginny would have liked to have said goodbye properly, though she guessed they could come back freely now.
"Well, then we should work to transfer our people back to our world," George said. "We can get them better treatment at St. Mungo's."
Alicia nodded slowly. "We'll need to make sure that our people are stabilized first, but you're right. We should get them home. I'm sure everyone who didn't come is worried sick."
"We'll start with Katie and Neville," Jason said. "They'll be okay for the journey. Then we'll send some of our healthy people, and then a few of us can stay to wrap up loose ends."
**HP**
In total, nearly two thousand, five hundred witches and wizards died. Nearly two hundred goblins had been killed and only twenty or so werewolves survived through the final battle. The Order had taken a hit with Minerva, Sturgis Podmore, Molly, Arthur, Mary McDonald, Barty Crouch, Dawlish, Mad-Eye, and Savage being counted among the dead.
Of the original Order, only Fabian, Lily, James, Fred, George, Marlene, Oliver, Katie, Albus, Bill, Fleur, Joe Joe, and Amelia remained. The Weasley's were heartbroken with the deaths of their brother and parents, but they had a little to be happy about with the timely return of their estranged brother, who mourned the loss of his family he'd never been able to apologize to.
Langston and Ileana had sent their people off to their own field hospitals for care before they returned to their own armies clearing their way through Europe. Within a week, it had spread across the world that Voldemort had been killed. In that time, Europe had mostly been recaptured. There were still a few holdouts, but as word spread about Voldemort's demise, more and more were rising up to fight the Death Eaters or betraying them, hoping their last minute aid might grant them some leniency. The world had mostly been freed from Voldemort's regime, and governments were starting to assemble themselves worldwide, with most of the key leaders of the resistance taking the leader's position, some with the full support of their people, and others by force.
Harry and Ginny had both returned to the alternate dimension after being forcibly sent back to their world, nearly giving Molly a heart attack before she mobbed them and nearly hugged them to death and had to nearly fight her off before they could return to properly help their compatriots and to close loose ends and give their farewells.
Isla, Neville, Fred, and Katie were all successfully transferred to St. Mungos, where they were all receiving the best treatment. Fred and Katie were expected to recover fine, though Katie had suffered some permanent damage in her leg, and would never move quite as gracefully as she had, but she was still estimated to be fit for duty. Fred would be on potions for several months, and was subjected to bedrest, something Jamie was stringently enforcing, but eventually he too would be fine.
Neville was being fit for a leg, since there was nothing that they could do about his missing one. Neville was a bit irritable about his new life, and Jason thought Neville had seemed a bit down about how life would be, that is until Hannah Abbott had turned up to start caring for him, after hearing what happened. From then, much to Jason and the rest of their amusements, was quite content and happier than any of them had seen in a long time.
Isla's situation was not ideal, but she was still alive and somewhat mobile, which was more than it could have been. Her legs were completely paralyzed and she'd spend the rest of her days in a wheelchair, but her mind and the rest of her body was perfectly fine. It would be a rough adjustment for her, but her husband was dedicated to helping her as much as she'd allow, and she'd be able to return to her job and her life, with only her new disability to make things a bit harder.
Eventually, all the dimension travelers, save for Harry, Ginny, Jason, Alicia, Sirius, Isabelle, and Daphne returned to their homes, knowing that the rest would follow soon.
The Order along with other resistance members and Ministry workers that had fought on their side in the final battle captured the Ministry and installed a fledgling government. It didn't nearly do what the Ministry was supposed to do, but they were doing their best to handle emergencies and try to slowly put their country back together.
Amelia had been made the Minister of Magic. Kingsley was the Head of the DMLE, and Albus had dutifully taken over as Head of the Department of Magical Cooperation to try and help coordinate with their allies abroad as everyone attempted to either consolidate their own power or find a new normal in their world. Many countries, thankfully, were happy to try and spread around resources, in order for everyone to start improving, which in turn then spread to them getting what they needed, though there were some who used the Death Eater's defeats and their new fame to seize power themselves.
That was a problem for this world, as far as Jason was concerned, and he would be long gone before they even started worrying about that.
Now, they were only around for one last thing . . . the memorial for their fallen comrades, and to finally say goodbye to those they'd leave behind.
Thankfully, it wasn't for good. They had passed along the way of traveling between their dimensions to a few key members and plans had already been made for the Potters, Remus and Dora (now engaged), the Blacks, and the Weasleys to come to the other dimension for the holidays.
Rebecca, Maddy, and Gabby had brought up coming back to Jason's world immediately to continue learning from them, but their families hadn't been too keen, and it had been null anyway as they received offers and requests to help fix their own world.
Ileana and Langston had both asked the girls to work with them as they joined an international auror division that was being assembled from the various resistance fighters to hunt down Voldemort's supporters that had either escaped, were still openly fighting in certain areas, or were trying to portray themselves as not guilty and blend themselves back into society. Both warriors had also agreed to pass on their knowledge to the girls and train them up in their own methods and styles. Since this allowed them to continue learning while helping to clean up their world, they'd all happily accepted.
They were all gathered outside of the Burrow, where they'd decided to hold the mass wake for their fallen brothers and sisters in combat. It was a rather simple affair, but nobody had a dry eye among them, as they all told some of their favorite stories about their fallen friends and family.
They drank, they ate food, and despite the losses, they rejoiced, for even though they'd lost a lot, it hadn't been in vain. That which they'd all fought for had been realized. It was bitter-sweet, but much better than if they'd lost and it had all been in vain.
"So, you're heading home tomorrow," a voice said, and Jason and Alicia turned from where they were taking a respite and simply enjoying the peaceful night. They saw Rebecca and Maddy both approaching with sad smiles on their faces.
"You knew that," Jason said with a grin. "I'm fairly certain I've already watched you attempt to guilt Harry and Ginny into staying longer."
"I'm pretty sure I saw the waterworks with Izzy and Daph as well," Alicia said with a chuckle. "I guess it's our turn for the sad faces."
The two girls both frowned in mock hurt looks before grinning slightly.
"You can't blame us for trying," Maddy said.
Jason and Alicia both laughed.
"I guess not," Jason admitted. "Though, I think we're both ready to get back home."
"And we're actually going home this time," Alicia added. "No more jobs for a while for us."
"Really?" Rebecca asked. "Won't you get bored?"
Alicia and Jason chuckled. "There are still plenty of things we can do without taking jobs, and if we'll probably end up traveling a bit, but we both agree that we need some time off. We've found ourselves in too many wars in only a few short years, and we need to recenter ourselves a bit and maybe reassess how we take jobs," Jason said.
"Besides, there's quite a few family events happening within the next year, and it'll be good to be around to help them from the beginning.
"Ron and Hermione are finally tying the knot," Jason ticked off on his finger with a grin. "Your Remus and Dora are getting married and are going to do it in our dimension so that they can have a proper honeymoon afterwards, and my dear baby sister is finally tying the knot with Daphne."
Alicia sighed. "It's about time, too."
Rebecca and Maddy laughed. "I don't think your parents are quite as happy about it."
Jason grinned. "Oh, they're stoked about the engagement, they just don't like that Izzy and Daph talked about eloping before finally agreeing to a small marriage within the next two months."
Alicia laughed. "Not a lot of time to prepare, and I know our Izzy and Daph will fight our families every step of the way towards it being a larger wedding than they initially probably wanted."
"Was that how it was for you two?" Maddy asked, with a grin.
"Indeed, it was," Jason replied back, reminiscing. "Part of that was because we didn't realize how big a wedding can be just by inviting your family, closest friends and close coworkers, especially when our little extended family includes the Weasleys, Potters, Lupins, Spinnets, and Witchers. Add in the Order, coworkers from the DMLE and St. Mungos, several Hogwarts Professors, and the DA and you're small wedding isn't nearly as small as you think it will be."
"It especially starts getting out of hand when you consider holding a reception for everyone afterwards," Alicia said with a sigh and then smiled. "We kept the actual ceremony fairly small and rather informal, just how we mostly envisioned, but we getting food, tables, decorations, booze, and other miscellaneous things for a party was a bit more than we'd originally envisioned, and our parents fought us all of the way on decorations and venue."
"In the end, the wedding itself was more important to our families than it was to us," Jason said with a grin. "I just wanted to marry Alicia. I didn't really care how we got there."
"It was the same for me," Alicia said back. "So, we mostly gave in to our parents, had a nice wedding, and then enjoyed a wonderful honeymoon."
"It was the same for us too, but much worse," Ginny said, she and Harry joining them with grins. "Your parents are mostly reasonable. My mum is absolutely mental when it comes to her kids getting married. I was almost worried Harry was going to leave me after seeing how mum was."
"I'd already seen how she was during Bill and Fleur's wedding," Harry said with a grin. "I knew what I was getting into. It was Sirius you should have felt bad for. If there was anyone that was kind of hoping I'd make a run for it or that we'd just go and elope, it was him."
"Molly would have murdered you both if you eloped," Jason said with a laugh.
"Not Harry," Ginny disagreed. "He's her favorite."
"Please, I'm the one who defiled her baby girl," Harry muttered dryly. "Bill's actually given her grandchildren. He's her favorite."
"Well, you make a fair point about grandchildren," Ginny said, but then she shook her head. "However, you didn't defile me. I corrupted you. That's exactly how mum saw it."
"I have to agree with Gin," Alicia said with a smile. "Harry's definitely the favorite son."
Harry sighed in defeat, knowing it was no use continuing the debate.
"Hey you six, stop sequestering yourselves!" James's voice called out from where he was with Lily, Marlene, Remus, Dora, Bill, and Fleur. "Most of you are leaving tomorrow."
"You could literally visit us at any time!" Harry called back.
"Not the point!" Lily responded. "Get your butts over here!"
Harry grinned at those with him. "I guess you heard my parents. Time to continue the party."
Epilogue (~4 years later)
Harry once again found himself smiling, looking out on all his friends and family in the backyard of his home. In some ways, it was very reminiscent of when they'd been here for the four year celebration of the end of the war against Voldemort . . . though Harry had to think of that as his first war against Voldemort now. In other ways, there were many differences since then, though every difference he was thinking about at the moment was good.
Like years ago, his home was filled with friends and family. There were Hogwarts Professors, former DA members, former Order members, his now even larger family, various people of his and his family's coworkers, and former DA members, but now there were also people from abroad who'd come at behest of certain members of Harry's family, and also in attendance were friends and family from their adventure to the alternate dimension.
This time, Alicia and Jason were talking with Rebecca, Maddy, and Gabby, likely trading some stories from all of their collective travels.
Alicia and Jason didn't travel nearly as much as they did back then, but they still traveled quite a bit. Though, the reason they didn't travel as much had far more to do with the two-year-old in Jason's arms. Ileana Witcher (both Ileana's were rather smug about the name, but the reasoning was another story) was a fiery beauty that had certainly inherited the inquisitive nature of his parents. Jason and Alicia had taken much of the first year after the second war off, staying in England and visiting family and friends, though they had taken a few long trips purely for pleasure and education. Afterwards, they'd returned to their rather nomadic lifestyle, but had been much more particular in jobs they took, and often took temporary positions at universities and hospitals whether as instructors, researchers, or healers and/or mediwizards/mediwitches, rather than taking some of the more explosive jobs. They hadn't completely avoided those types of situations, but it had been less common, and nearly non-existent since Ileana's birth. Both sets of grandparents were trying to convince the couple to return to England permanently, but both Jason and Alicia had confided to Harry that they intended to keep traveling at least for another few years, especially since they felt they were home fairly often for visits. It probably helped that Alicia had just found out she was pregnant again, so Harry figured their traveling days for work were numbered anyhow.
Maddy, Rebecca, and Gabby were a three woman international Auror team back in their dimension and were famed for being some of the most skilled and powerful warriors in their world. Unlike in Harry's world, the other dimension had taken the international army that had formed to wipe out the remnants of Voldemort's forces and decided to keep it and make it an international auror force. This helped tie the various members of the ICW together, forcing them to call on help whenever any issues rose up in their various geographic areas. Harry always enjoyed hearing the girls' stories, proud of what they were accomplishing.
He glanced around seeing his dimension's Kingsley, talking with Arthur, Alex, Sirius, John, Minerva, and Katie from his own dimension and Amelia Bones, Albus Dumbledore and Remus from the other dimension. He figured despite it being a party, they were discussing work.
The two dimensions had a small working relationship, though they generally kept the knowledge of each other from the general population's of both dimensions, lest someone else try and use the Order's spell to forcefully pull someone from their dimension, or lest some of the darker members of society attempt to find other dimension to travel to and attack or recruit people from.
Harry's Kingsley was still Minister of Magic, and despite his protests that nine years was plenty, the public and the Ministry were nowhere near ready to let him go and it was often joked that a revolt would happen if Kingsley left the office, a revolt that would be solved once Kingsley was captured and forced back into office. He had married Hestia Jones, and they had a three year old boy named Carson and Hestia was currently pregnant with their second child.
Arthur was still head of the DMLE and was doing a fantastic job, though his closest friends and family knew that he was getting closer and closer to considering retirement or at least trying to step down and head back to head of the Misuse of Muggle Artifacts Office, where he would be happier, especially now that the war was over and there were others who could do the job. Molly still stayed at home and happily took the ever growing number of grandchildren and pseudo grand children. She generally spent most of each day homeschooling the slightly older kids while caring for the younger ones, assisted by Andromeda who had retired in order to spend more time with her grandchildren and other family.
Sirius, to his godfather's slight sadness, was now the Deputy Head of the DMLE, which was a newer position that had been created to help make redundancy within the Ministry so that nobody could easily attack the Ministry and kill off the leadership, leaving a gap in who would fill those positions.
With his promotion, Alex had been made Head Auror with Rick Savage acting as assistant Head, though Savage had vocally said that "outside of an emergency, there was no fucking way he would be Head Auror." So, Percy, Proudfoot, Cedric, Harry, Dora, Frank and Alice all knew that the day would likely come that they'd possibly be offered Head Auror. The vast majority of that group had already (behind his back) let it be known that Harry should be Head Auror. Harry knew what they'd done, and he didn't like it, but he rarely won arguments with his family, so he really just prayed Arthur wouldn't retire anytime soon. THe only bright side to him possibly becoming Head Auror was that he knew Percy would actually like the Head of the DMLE job, so Harry didn't have to worry about possibly having that job anytime soon, even after all of the parental generation started retiring years from now.
John was still head of the Hitwizards, though his crew had changed around a bit. Hestia had retired after her son was born, so Katie, upon popular vote, had been named his deputy, making her the youngest deputy hitwitch in the history of the Ministry. Katie herself was currently engaged to Oliver Wood which Harry found a bit amusing since the alternate dimensions Katie Bell and Oliver Wood were also engaged.
Not much had changed at Hogwarts. Minerva was still Headmistress with Flitwick acting as Deputy Head. Snape was still the Head of Slytherin and Sprout still the Head of Hufflepuff. The only real change was that Remus had returned to the Castle, teaching Defense Against the Dark Arts, which had many people overjoyed, since the job had not been very stable, even after the war, though the one year curse had indeed been broken. Remus had been made the Head of Gryffindor. Remus and Dora both lived at Hogwarts during the school year with their children, with Dora dropping the kids off at the Burrow before going into the Ministry each day.
Amelia was still the Minister of Magic in the other dimension. Albus had moved out of the Department of Magical Cooperation and was now working to restart Hogwarts with Remus, Dora, James, Lily, and Marlene's help. Their Kingsley was the UK's correspondent within the ICW's Auror Division, and was the main liaison between the ICW and the British Ministry.
Harry smiled over at Ginny, who was holding Harry's second child, just over one year old Jason Arthur Potter, while she talked to Lily, Astoria, Hannah, Isabelle, Jamie, and Angelina. It had been a wonderful few years of excitement and new experiences becoming a father, first to James Sirius, and then to Jason Arthur. Ginny had just officially retired from the Holyhead Harpies and was now making a transition to be a Quidditch Correspondent for the Daily Prophet, which made Jamie overjoyed since she got to see her sister-in-law everyday at work now. They hadn't announced it yet, but Ginny was pregnant with their third and likely final child.
Astoria had, to the complete shock of all of her now quite large extended family, had married Draco Malfoy of all people, but Isabelle, Daphne, and the Witcher branch of their family as a whole, had done their best to be supportive and made sure that Draco was welcome at family functions. They had just had their first child, who they named Scorpius.
Hannah and Neville were married, with one child and another on the way. Hannah managed the Leaky Cauldron while Neville had just started acting as Professor Sprout's assistant, helping with the Greenhouses and working towards eventually replacing Professor Sprout at Hogwarts.
Isabelle was still a Curse Breaker for Gringotts, and was now, funnily enough, based in Madagascar where she and Jason had started their magical journey. She and Daphne were happily married, enjoyed living abroad, and often traveled home like previous to visit family.
Angelina had retired from Quidditch as well, and now with George, Fred, Ron, and still assisted part time by Jamie, continued to manage Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes. Their first born, Fred Weasley II was the same age as James, and many in the family were quite sure the two children were going to cause mayhem once they got to Hogwarts. Jamie and Fred also had their first kid, unsurprisingly and to the exasperation of the family, named George Weasley II . . . and he was the same age as Fred II and James.
Playing with the various children were Jack, Ron, Rolf Scamander, and Charlie. Watching and talking together were Juliana, Andromeda, Isla, Sarah, and Cho Diggory.
Rolf had married Luna and they had one child. Both of them still traveled around the world as magizoologists. Cho was married to Cedric and currently worked as a fashion designer. Charlie still worked on the Dragon Reserve and was determined to remain a bachelor. Jack and Juliana were still curse breakers with not much change in their lives other than being completely based in America permanently now. Sarah was still at St. Mungo's, and hoped Alicia would join her eventually after Jason and Alicia finally moved back to England. Isla was still an unspeakable, not having allowed her disability to stop her from her career path.
Ron had retired from the Aurors and had joined his brothers and sisters-in-law at WWW. He and Herimione were married and their first child, Rose, was the same age as Jason Arthur, which made Ron, Hermione, Harry, and Ginny happy knowing their kids would be in the same year at Hogwarts, though at this point, Hogwarts was going to be overwhelmed by the Weasley-Potter-Lupin-Witcher children when they finally started attending. Hermione was still working in the DMLE, but she was tipped to move to full time in the Wizengamot working on laws, and many thought she'd be the Minister someday, perhaps even after Kingsley was finally done.
That left Harry with the last main group of his family, which was funny to see because it had Harry's brother and sister-in-law, Bill and Fleur, and it had the other dimension's Bill and Fleur, while also having Percy and Audrey, and the other dimension's Percy, Fred, and George.
Harry's Bill and Fleur were both still Curse Breakers, and were happy dealing with Victoire and Dominique, their daughters, and Fleur was currently pregnant with what they said would be their last child, and they both hoped was a boy. The other Bill and Fleur had finally had a child of their own, and the other Fleur was also pregnant with their second child. They both worked in the Ministry in the Department of Magical Cooperation. Percy was still an Auror and Audrey still worked in the Department of Magical Transportation. The other Fred and George had started working, trans-dimensionally, to expand WWW with Harry's brothers-in-law, opening their own branch of the joke shop.
Overall, Harry's family and friends were happy, healthy, and growing by the year and peace in the world, while certainly not perfect, was well in control. Magical Britain hadn't seen peace like this in well over a century, and Harry intended for things to stay that way, and he had plenty of friends and family to help him with that goal.
All was well . . . until the next adventure.
