About This Quote

I would never have known that the world of gods existed if it weren't for the fact that my sister is a huge fan of Harry Potter. One day I stumbled upon a website that was talking about Harry Potter characters, and this one character in particular named Albus Dumbledore, who I found to be an amazingly interesting character with a very compelling backstory. Since I am a huge fan of HP, I decided to read more about this character and find out what he had been doing all this time. From what I gathered, Dumbledore was once a member of the Order of the Phoenix, which is led by Harry himself.

He was also an extremely powerful wizard and so he took his place in the ministry of magic as an advisor to the minister himself. Finally, the site told me that Dumbledore was once married to a very beautiful witch named Lily Evans and they had five children, one of which was Harry himself. The site made it clear that Dumbledore had died and then he returned from death at least once and talked to Harry and his friends and gave them information on how to defeat Voldemort.

From this point on, Dumbledore became something of a god to Harry and his friends and they sought him out for guidance whenever they needed it.
