The next few years are only briefly depicted. At Hogwarts, the sorting hat chooses both Scorpius and Albus to be in the Slytherin house. They supposedly did this to provide a powerful heir to the Malfoy line. Some suggest Draco and his wife couldn’t have children, so they used a Time-Turner to send Scorpius’ mother back to Voldemort’s time. Rumor has it that Scorpius may be the biological son of Voldemort, the evil wizard who killed Harry’s parents and tried to kill Harry. Scorpius is the son of Harry’s Hogwarts rival, Draco. She’s distraught when Albus immediately befriends Scorpius Malfoy.

On the train ride, Rose lectures Albus about the importance of falling in with the right people at school. Their daughter, Rose Weasley-Granger, is also attending Hogwarts for the first time. At the train station, the Potters run into Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, who are now married and have two children. Albus doesn’t believe it is a fitting place for brave wizards. Represented by a snake, Slytherin is known as a house of Dark Magic. The school’s students are divided into four houses, and Albus fears he may be chosen for the Slytherin house. As the story begins, the Potter family is taking the nervous Albus to catch the train for his first year at Hogwarts. He’s married to Ginny Weasley, and their children are James, Albus and Lily. Harry is now a grown man and an overworked employee of the Ministry of Magic. Nineteen years have passed since the events of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows.
