What Makes a Father

He never imagined he'd be a father - and yet, he'd always wanted to be one.

Gellert Grindelwald once craved power, but beneath the politics and fire, there was always a quieter longing - for a name whispered with affection, for a legacy not forged in war but in love. He had wanted a family, desperately so, but with the world at his feet and ambition in his veins, there was never room.

Albus had been the closest thing to that future. Brief, fragile, and always just out of reach - a boyhood dream quietly left behind.

And now, as his son grows with each passing year - unaware of his existence, and caught in the very dangers he and Albus once tried so hard to shield him from - Gellert knows he can no longer remain in the shadows. Not this time.
Now, it's time to step forward. To become what he never thought he could be.
A father.
