Dorea became Harry's political teacher as she handled that aspect of their lives so that Charlus could play with his wards. It was then that he learned of Sirius' fate and that he would be taking over House Black as well.
"What does that mean?"
Dorea smirked and said "It means that you will have to have one wife for House Potter and one wife for House Black or you can just absorb House Black into House Potter and let the family end."
"Wait a minute, I thought you guys said that House Potter was going to die out and House Peverell would be reborn? Not only that, I can't have two wives Grandmum. I love Megan and I wouldn't want to hurt her. Besides, wouldn't Draco be able to make a claim on the title?"
"Technically House Potter and House Peverell are one and the same. Draco could but as you have a stronger claim, you would be considered the primary heir. Sirius came from the primary line and claimed you as his heir. I also came from the primary line and so you have a direct claim through me. Narcissa is from the secondary line and does not have as good a claim no matter what they think."
"If I absorbed the Black family would that mean I had to accept them into my family?"
Dorea smiled sweetly and shook her head. "I would advise you to take the title and…"
Harry sat quietly for a minute before asking "So what happened with Sirius?"
"What do you mean dear?"
"When he showed up, what happened?"
She looked sadly at him for a second before replying "I'm sorry baby but he just didn't show up. Azrael dragged him in front of us before taking him on to be judged. It was obvious he already realized his mistakes but as your father told him, it was way too late for sorry. In the end, everyone told him how disappointed they were in him and how he would never be welcome in our family's presence again. Azrael said he wasn't sentenced to hell but I can't help but think that's what he got anyway as he would never be accepted by us again and that what he had done was unforgivable."
Harry quietly said "I'm glad I wasn't here to deal with him. His betrayal was just as painful as Hermione's."
She walked over and pulled him into a hug. "Yes, your mother thought that not knowing your fate would see justice served in his case and it would torment him for eternity."

On the last day, Azrael and Dobby came back to the manor and joined the family as they were trying to avoid the pain of saying goodbye to each other. As they sat around and talked, it was obvious that the family had grown quite close over the last few years and they were all thankful for the opportunity they had been given to make the connection with each other that had been denied them.
Azrael led Harry and Dobby back to the chamber they had arrived in. Harry looked closely at it and noticed this one was round.
"Why is this one different from the other one?"
Azrael chuckled "Well, it really doesn't matter as it can take any form I choose. I've used mirrors, doors, haunted arches and just about anything else you can imagine but I got this idea when I was in the non-magical world one night. My charge was in a movie theatre and watching something called Stargate. The movie used a device that looked like this to move people from one world to the other and I liked the idea so my arch took on this appearance. To be quite honest, I thought the effect of walking through the wall of water to be extraordinary."
"Great Grandfather, my generation would say that it was cool. From what Meg told me, it freaked everyone out and they had no clue as to what was going on. I guess if they had spent some time embracing the non-magical world instead of saying it was beneath them, they might have figured out from your clue that it was a transportation device. Anyway, it doesn't matter as it will work in our favor."
Azrael gave him some final instructions and then stepped over and placed his finger on Harry's temple. Harry closed his eyes for a minute and when he opened them, Azrael said "That should help you along with your task. You need to send Tom Riddle to me a piece at a time until all you have left is Tom himself. Once you have sent tom himself, I expect nothing less than for Albus Dumbledore to find his way to me. We have all given you the tools you require to do it and then take your place in the world."
"Yes Sir and I know my first stop."
"Good, use it as it was intended. I'm sure everyone would be happy if you checked in with them regularly. So Harrison James Peverell, it is my hope that I don't see you for a very long time but if you ever need me, all you have to do is call my name."
Harry pulled him into a hug and said "Thank you."
With a wave of his hand, Azrael had once again activated the arch. Harry turned to Dobby and asked "You ready for this?"
After a nod from Dobby, they stepped into the wall of water for their journey back to the mortal plane.
