Summary
When Dumbledore leaves Harry upon the doorstep of No. 4 Privet Drive, he expects the boy to be picked up in the morning by his Aunt Petunia and taken in by the Dursley's to be raised away from not only the Wizarding World but from those who would teach him about the magic, history and politics his lineage demands.
What he doesn't expect is a middle-aged French Witch grieving the loss of her English husband to stumble upon a baby out in the cold and be moved to help him. By any means necessary.
He also doesn't expect her to be the Great Niece of Perenelle Flamel, or related to the deposed Queen of Magical France who lives in exile while engaged in a dirty tug-of-war for power against the French Ministry.
But then, Dumbledore always was a short-sighted man too fixated upon his own chess pieces to look beyond the board He's set up to play with.
