BLOOD OF THE ENEMY, DE-CRUXING HARRY, AND THE SPECTACULAR END SEQUENCE


This is a really long theory that attempts to divine the following:

So, nothing too ambitious. :-)



Ye be warned: Everything here assumes Harry is a Horcrux. If you think that's absolute rubbish, you may as well stop reading and go listen to some soothing music.

Awaaaaay we go!

The Value of Being a Horcrux

In addition to the nice little bundle of powers, the soul fragment in Harry gives Voldemort an incentive to keep Harry alive. This is probably why the Death Eaters were told "Potter belongs to the Dark Lord" in HBP.

Yes, it presents a challenge for Harry in the end, but during the intermediate quest to find and destroy three other Horcruxes it is entirely Harry's advantage. I expect Voldemort and Harry will have a close encounter somewhere in the middle of Deathly Hallows and Voldemort will pass up an opportunity to kill Harry.

What Voldemort will not pass up is an opportunity to relocate the soul fragment. Can he actually do this? Almost certainly. Consider:

1) According to Dumbledore (HBP 23), Voldemort considered making Nagini a Horcrux. Dumbledore cites only one drawback to using an animal: the animal's ability to "think and move for itself." And yet, animals are mortal. Nagini will die. Ergo, Voldemort would only consider using her if he knew he could someday relocate the precious soul fragment.

2) In order to make a Horcrux, this is precisely what Voldemort does: He relocates a fragment of his soul.

3) The soul fragment in Riddle's diary was actually capable of moving itself. "She put too much into the diary, into me. Enough to let me leave it's pages at last...." (CoS 17)

Harry could be in serious trouble if Voldmeort succeeds.

Just for fun, let's say the intended replacement object is Gryffindor's sword. Voldemort might acquire it by taking over Hogwarts. Hagrid gave this hint in the first book:

"Reckon Dumbledore's the only one You-Know-Who was afraid of. Didn't dare try takin' the school, not jus' then, anyway."
(PS 4)

With Dumbledore dead, the way is clear. We'll see in a bit how the sword is a good fit, but let me stress that the sword is not necessary for the rest of the theory to work.



Blood of the Enemy

Rowling has this to say about Dumbledore's gleam from GoF chapter 36:

MA: Does the gleam of triumph still have yet to make an appearance?

JKR: That's still enormously significant. And let's face it, I haven't told you that much is enormously significant...

(Mugglenet Interview)

Obviously, Voldemort made a mistake in taking Harry's blood. But what kind of mistake? His knowledge of magic (even when love is involved) is very thorough. Dumbledore says,

"Voldemort's knowledge of magic is perhaps more extensive than any wizard alive."
(OotP 37)

Voldemort understands the magic involved in Lily's sacrifice:

"So. Your mother died to save you. Yes, that's a powerful counter-charm. I can see now..."
(CoS 17)

He is up-to-date on the protective enchantment involving Petunia:

"Dumbledore invoked an ancient magic to ensure the boy's protection as long as he is in his relations' care."
(GoF 33)

And he is absolutely right about one effect of Harry's blood:

"I can touch him now."
Harry felt the cold tip of the long white finger touch him...
(GoF 33)

There is no evidence of any gap in Voldemort's understanding. Furthermore, he spent a lifetime studying Dark magic like the Flesh, Blood and Bone ceremony, and he had an entire year to think about what Harry's blood would do to him.

Let's ask what actually did go wrong for Voldemort in Little Hangleton: We know Harry escaped because of the Priori Incantatem effect. But even here, we have evidence that Voldemort is familiar with the magic:

"Do nothing!" Voldemort shrieked to the Death Eaters...
(GoF 34)

Voldemort was surpised because he was ignorant of the situation, not the magic. He did not know Harry had a matching wand core. Pettigrew couldn't tell him this, despite being Ron's rat for three years, because Pettigrew did not know. Rowling gave us this tidbit sixteen chapters previously:

Mr. Ollivander [had] explained that the phoenix feather in Harry's wand had come from the same bird that had supplied the core of Lord Voldemort's.

Harry had never shared this piece of information with anybody.

(GoF 18 p310)

So if everything is consistent, the as-yet-undetermined effect of taking Harry's blood must be dependent on some facet of the situation that Voldemort did not know when he was resurrected, namely:

1) Harry is a Horcrux
2) Harry is going to escape the graveyard alive


What could it be?


The Cave Tutorial

A lot of speculation has revolved around two of the known magical properties of human blood: the residual protection from Lily (which Voldemort overcame) and the indirect protection via Petunia (which will soon expire).

But if dragon's blood has twelve uses, why shouldn't human blood have a bit more than two? In fact, we've already been given another use:

"I rather think," said Dumbledore... drawing out a short silver knife... "that we are required to make payment to pass."

"Payment?" said Harry. "You've got to give the door something?"

"Yes," said Dumbledore. "Blood, if I am not much mistaken."

"Blood?"

(HBP 26 p559)

Paid for by blood.


Thirteen years prior to GoF, Voldemort gave Harry a fragment of his soul, complete with a substantial suite of powers. Then, at the moment of his resurrection, Voldemort took payment for it. This will serve as a magical contract; Voldemort cannot, now, take the fragment back. (It's still part of Voldemort's soul and an effective Horcrux -- nothing can change that. Plus, it would be dreadfully dull if Harry's solution were so easy.)

I anticipate a major objection here: Shouldn't Lily's sacrifice give Harry a right to the soul fragment? Nope. That wasn't the deal that Lily offered. She offered to die so Harry could live, and that's what happened. Voldemort accepted the offer by killing her after first saying he would spare her. Magical contracts aren't based on fairness and justice (if they were, James's death would have counted the same as Lily's).

There is more evidence from Dumbledore in the antechamber to the cave. He says to Harry, "your blood is worth more than mine." Naturally -- Harry's blood is the price of a soul fragment! Also, note that Dumbledore uses a silver knife to extract a blood payment, just as Wormtail used a silver dagger in Little Hangleton (a small author-to-reader clue).


The Voice, Before and After

Harry's blood payment didn't change everything. The visions and scar pain do not originate with the soul fragment, they originate with Voldemort himself; the soul fragment is merely a conduit.

The powers and abilities that Harry gains -- like Parseltongue, Legilimency, and a talent for wheedling information -- certainly do originate with the soul fragment, but they are all passive. They flow out of the soul fragment automatically.

There is only type of actual behavior, independent of Voldemort, which the soul fragment displays: On rare occasion, it speaks to Harry. Prior to the Flesh, Blood and Bone ceremony, the soul fragment acted like it was still inside Voldemort, and it gave Harry the sort of advice that Voldemort would give to himself:

But I'm in Gryffindor, Harry thought. The Sorting Hat wouldn't have put me here if I had Slytherin blood....

Ah,
said a nasty little voice in his brain, but the Sorting Hat wanted to put you in Slytherin, don't you remember?

(CoS 11)

and...

Black made a startled movement that almost dislodged Crookshanks; Harry gripped his wand convulsively -- Do it now! said a voice in his head...
(PoA 17)

It is a nasty little voice, it favors Slytherin, and it wants to kill without hesitation.

Then things change. Once Harry makes payment in blood, the soul fragment adapts itself to Harry's own values and becomes a pretty good advisor:

He had forgotten completely about prefects being chosen in the fifth year.... But if he had remembered...what would he have expected?

Not this, said a small and truthful voice inside his head.
...
But maybe, said the small voice fairly, maybe Dumbledore doesn't choose prefects because they've got themselves into a load of dangerous situations...."

(OotP 9)

How's that for a change? The voice goes from murderous and nasty to truthful and fair. After the blood payment, it sounds like Phineas Nigellus on ritalin. It knows a thing or two about how Dumbledore chooses Prefects, too.

Later,

Sirius didn't have his mirror on him when he went through the archway, said a small voice in Harry's head. That's why it's not working....
(OotP 38)

The voice seems to know things that Harry doesn't. It even borders on being wise, telling Harry something that will help him give up on a false hope. Thanks to the blood payment, we can expect more aid from the little voice in book seven.



Plan B: The Snapegoat

Once Voldemort realizes he cannot simply wave his wand to regain control of his soul fragment, he'll make alternate plans.

In HBP 23, Slughorn gave "an overview" of the Horcrux-making process and said, "Killing rips the soul apart."

That little statement has caused a lot of confusion. Later in the chapter, Dumbledore demonstrates many times over that only the full Horcrux-making process will split the soul and divide it into parts. Simply killing, even committing murder, does not split the soul.

So why didn't Slughorn say, "Killing damages the soul"? Because Rowling wanted to make it very close to splitting, in order to serve as a tutorial for Voldemort's first recovery plan.

And that plan is fairly simple: Get Harry to kill somebody, thus ripping Voldemort's soul fragment apart from Harry's own soul so Voldemort can take it away. I don't know if this would actually overcome Harry's blood payment, but I am certain Voldemort doesn't mind somebody dying so he can give it a shot.

That "someobody" will probably be Snape:

Snape, the man he now hated as much as he hated Voldemort himself.
(HBP 28 p603)

"...I'm the one who's going to kill him. And if I meet Severus Snape along the way... so much the worse for him."
(Harry, HBP 30 p651)

These first two quotes show how much Harry wants Snape dead. He is at least on par with Voldemort.

"Sectum--!"

Snape flicked his wand and the curse was repelled yet again;

(HBP 28 p603)

This third quote shows that Snape can block even a major Curse like Sectumsempra, which is vital in forcing Harry to go with the unblockable Killing Curse.

I imagine that Voldemort will put Snape under the Imperius Curse to set up the situation. Snape will attack Harry with lots of annoying and perhaps painful spells, but nothing that disables him. No matter what Harry tries, Snape will block it. Snape will have to act very threatening. The situation is loaded with comic potential, really.

And thus Harry will face one of many difficult choices. I'm sure he will choose not to kill Snape and thus retain -- for now -- the soul fragment.



Plan C: Call in the Experts

All of this is leading up to something very important. The blood payment and Harry's refusal to kill Snape will push Voldemort to more and more desperate measures. Eventually, Voldemort will realize that he simply cannot take back the soul fragment. It just can't be done.

At this point, Voldemort will decide against killing Harry.

Bizarre? Yes. Crazy? Crazy like a snake... er, a fox.

Plan C is to use the Dementors. Have one of them suck out Harry's soul, thus neutralizing (effectively destroying) the "Chosen One." Once that's done, Voldemort can reclaim his soul fragment because the soulless body is not Harry's essential self (even if reclamation doesn't work, Voldemort can find a way to keep Harry's catatonic body safe).

Already, I can hear some of you genuises thinking ahead to how this might help Harry. Indeed, I am not the first to mention Dementors in relation to the Harrycrux solution. But we've got to remember a few things here:

1) The Dementors are completely controlled by Voldemort. The Dementor that attacked Barty Jr. was obviously acting on Voldemort's orders, and Voldemort wasn't even there to oversee the operation. Voldemort will certainly be on hand for Harry's Dementing.

2) Dementors are not "Beings" -- they are explicitly soulless. So there cannot be a rogue Dementor who chooses to turn against Voldemort.

3) Voldemort is their greatest benefactor. It's been one non-stop party since he came back to power. They would be fools to mess things up for the boss.

4) Even if, hypothetically, it might be remotely possible for a Dementor's appetite to overcome its obedience (I'm sure it won't happen), this would -- at best -- result in the destruction of Voldemort's soul fragment along with the consumption of Harry's soul. The Dementor would not pass up the full soul in favor of the seventh.

So things look grim and chances are slim.



Setting up the End Sequence

I'd like to begin by mentioning a few of the "literary qualities" which I expect to be on display:

1) High Stakes -- When we go into the final battle, we need to see the possibility that Voldemort will not only win, but remain powerful and immortal. Thus I expect Harry to be in the process of destroying one or more regular Horcruxes when he faces Voldemort.

2) The Running Climax -- Rowling does not always have a sharp, well-defined climax at the end of a book. GoF had three good peaks: Voldemort's resurrection, the PI effect, and Dumbledore's Stunning of the imposter Moody. In OotP, there were about five: The battle with the Death Eaters, Sirius's death, the duel between Voldemort & Dumbledore, the Possession of Harry, and the revelation of the Prophecy.

With so many plot complexities, expect the same for Deathly Hallows.

3) The Power of Love -- Never has it been shown that feeling love creates an energy source for casting deadly spells. Rather, love is what allows people to make important (and often unexpected) choices which work against Voldemort. It was Lily's choice that saved Harry; love was the power that took Harry to save Sirius, via Harry's choice; Harry's ability to love protects him from temptation in that he chooses not to become one of Voldemort's followers.

The first choice for Harry has already been cited (not killing Snape); there will be more, and no doubt there will be some important decisions that I haven't even thought of.

4) Dumb Luck -- Stupid decisions can, eventually, lead to a good results. Harry's journey to the Ministry in OotP was pointless; but it resulted in the exposure of Voldemort and the capture of nine Death Eaters. His effort to protect the Philosopher's Stone (from Snape, I should note) was completely unnecessary because Quirrellmort couldn't have gotten it from the Mirror without Harry; but it resulted in another vanquishing of Voldemort, the exposure of Quirrell, and a valuable learning experience for Harry.

5) Fear -- Just because she can, I think Rowling will want to scare the readers out of their wits.


Location

Placing the final battle at Godric's Hollow, in the Potter's house, would bring the story full circle. It would also be an excellent plot device because the Fidelius Charm would limit which characters can be involved (here's a chance for Pettigrew to redeem himself).

Azkaban is another good candidate, only because it's been mentioned so often and we've never been there. Again, access is conveniently limited.

But if Harry gets to Godric's Hollow and Azkaban during the early/middle parts of DH, I expect the final confrontation to be in the death chamber in the Department of Mysteries. The Veil is an ideal tool for safely destroying a Horcrux -- just chuck it through. The Veil also provides a good red herring, leading readers to think Harry and/or Voldemort will go through it. Lastly, the other rooms in the department might come in handy.

(Note the fabric and fallen timber on the U.S. cover. That could be the Veil, destroyed by Voldemort to prevent Harry from passing Horcruxes through it. It could also be the ruins of the Potters' house, superimposed over some other scene involving the stone archways).


Hermione's Role

In another theory, titled Looking Back, I found evidence of a pattern whereby the early chapters of Philopher's Stone foreshadow the later books. The foreshadowing always comes from small, mutable elements that aren't vital to the immediate plot.

Example: PS chapter 5 ('Diagon Alley') is mapped to GoF. In PS 5, we meet a goblin named 'Griphook'. That name describes the action of a Portkey (essential to the plot of GoF): You grip the object and then feel a hook jerk behind your navel.

Example: In PS chapter 8 ('The Potions Master') there are passing references to the Draught of Living Death, bezoars, and vampires, all of which make appearances in HBP.

So PS chapter 9, appropriately titled 'The Midnight Duel', is presumed to contain foreshadowing for Deathly Hallows. Let's look at a couple of passages:

"Excuse me, Professor Flitwick, could I borrow Wood for a moment?"
(PS 9)

and

"Oh, move over," Hermione snarled. She grabbed Harry's wand, tapped the lock, and whispered, "Alohomora!"
(PS 9)

To me, these suggest that Hermione will make use of Harry's wand. We also have this tidbit from Rowling herself:

"...there is a very close relationship as you know between the wand that each wizard uses and themselves. And you'll find out more about that in book seven."
(Radio City reading)

Going into the final encounter, there is a certain logic in swapping wands with Hermione. Harry is protected by virtue of being a Horcrux -- Voldemort doesn't want to kill him. Hermione is pretty good in a fight, as demonstrated in the DoM battle, and Harry's wand would give her a degree of protection as well. Voldemort will avoid Cursing her because he doesn't want to get caught in another Priori Incantatem showdown.

Harry's desire to protect his friend is yet another important choice derived from the power of love. Furthermore, his willingness to spread out certain assets is a sharp contrast to Voldemort's fiercely independent mode of operation.

We'll see in a bit how the wand is important.


Ron's Role

If Ron's future is difficult to see, it is because there are simply too many clues. He has running bits associated with fungus, drowning, transforming, self-sacrifice, and kingliness. I may post some of the alternate scenarios for Ron later, but right now I'll offer my "best guess." It starts with a running link to the number fourteen:


The fourteenth Major Arcana in tarot is called 'Temperance.' It depicts an individual standing with one foot in the water whilst pouring water into wine. Thus I expect Ron to drink a significant potion on the way to the final encounter. In fact, I think he might pay Harry back for the Felix Felicis trick in HBP 14: Ron will drink something dangerous that was meant for Harry.

What kind of potion? We have examples from the Potions riddle in Philosopher's Stone and the basin in the cave where a potion must be consumed to pass a barrier. But again, to give my "best guess," I think there will be several doses of some antidote which they all have to drink; and they will know that the dose intended for Harry has been tainted (presumably poisoned); and Ron will take this dose for himself.

(The antidotes might be delivered by Snape, along with a warning that Voldemort has tampered with one of them.)

We'll see in a bit how this is important.



The End Sequence in a Nutshell

Keeping in mind that I don't have the actual text... not all the details are here and there may be other characters present. Where there are gaps, I've made a "best guess," but the essentials are based on loads of evidence which will be presented afterwards.

So:

Harry and friends make their way to the death chamber, possibly via seperate routes, hoping to destroy one or more object Horcruxes by putting them through the Veil. Hermione is armed with Harry's wand and Ron has consumed a dangerous beverage.

Voldemort is waiting. He's carrying Gryffindor's sword, hoping to make it a Horcrux in place of Harry, and he's got a Dementor or two standing by.

Stuff happens, there are skirmishes, and all that.

Harry breaks for the Veil. Voldemort calls for a Dementor, but not soon enough. Harry's going to make it! And then...

Harry sees that Ron is in some kind of trouble.



At this point, Harry's decision reflects upon many lessons:

...he and Dumbledore had discussed fighting a losing battle
(HBP 30 p644)


Surely, any effort to save Ron is a "losing battle". It's hopeless.

"Remember, if the time should come when you have a choice between what is right and what is easy"
(GoF 37 p724)

The easy decision is to press on and destroy the Horcrux(es). Heck, they're probably all going to die either way.

"That power [love] took you to save Sirius tonight."
(OotP 37 p844)

Alas, Dumbledore has quite specifically stated how the power of love works: It makes Harry do stupid things.



Back to the kerfuffle, Harry acts like Harry and rushes to the rescue (Ron might protest). Together, they fight their way back toward the Veil, but it is now blocked by a Dementor (or several). Darkness descends on the chamber. A Dementor closes on Harry. Harry calls for Ron to take the Horcruxes and make a run for the Veil. Harry gropes through the darkness and starts to pass them to Ron. But then Voldemort swoops in; Harry sees a glint of steel (Gryffindor's sword -- it's handy, and Voldemort might still think Harry carries his own wand); Harry hears a sickening gurgle followed by a heavy thud and a high, cold laugh.

At this point, Hermione probably gets off her first feeble Patronus, buying a few seconds of light. Harry sees Ron lying in a pool of blood. Harry grabs the Horcrux(es), sprints for the Veil, and just manages to hurl them through as a Dementor siezes his wrist.


The perspective changes.


Hermione watches as the Dementor overwhelms Harry and clamps its maw onto Harry's mouth. She desperately gropes for a happy thought and fires off another feeble Patronus with the borrowed wand. The Dementor retreats, but it is not defeated.

Voldemort, furiously impatient, will either grab Ron's wand (a favorite tactic for some villians) or send the Dementor after her. In either case, Hermione is forced to retreat. Voldemort then turns his attention back to Harry and urges the Dementor to get on with all possible haste. And so it does, resuming the kiss and rising from Harry looking quite satisfied.

Hermione will then see Ron's lifeless body in a pool of blood lying not far from an obviously-Demented Harry (remember that Snape's D.A.D.A. class had paintings to teach people exactly how to recognize the effect; HBP 9 p178).


The perspective changes.


We go back and follow Harry from the initial Dementor attack. He feels its sickly maw pressing against him, and then feels whatever somebody feels when his soul is being sucked out -- the loss of perception, I presume. He catches just a wee bit of light or sound to guess that Hermione has used a Patronus, and the Dementing stops for a moment. But only a moment. It quickly resumes and the reader is left with no doubt whatsoever that Harry's soul is sucked out.


What a happy ending!

But we aren't really done.



Resurrection, Easter and Religious Symbolism

The Bible has been a foundation of Western Literature for centuries. It's influence is sometimes obvious, as in the case of pure allegory. But just as often, the influence involves value systems or familiar symbols which are more difficult to trace back to the source.

Harry Potter is certainly not allegory, but it does have its share of biblcial symbolism. I'll leave it to you to decide whether it is overt or not. But I am not suggesting anything more overt in the final volume than what we've seen already.


Socks, and the relative cleanliness of socks, are pretty familiar to us all:

Mrs. Weasley fussed over the state of his socks
(CoS 4 p42)

"And she's got some gold out of your vault for you...and she's washed all your socks."
(GoF p155)

John 13:5-7 -- After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples' feet...


The Veil in the DoM is remarkably like that at Golgotha (Calvary):

the archway was hung with a tattered black curtain or veil
(OotP 34 p773)

Luke 23:45 -- And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst.


There is a biblical reference to the price of blood (also note the concordance of silver, matching Dumbledore's and Wormtail's blades):

Matthew 27:6-7 -- And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful for to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood.
    And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field


And Harry has already had a resurrection, of sorts:

"How long have I been in here?" [unconscious in the hospital wing]

"Three days."

(Harry and Dumbledore, PS 17 p296)

Matthew 27:63 -- Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again.


Observe that every one of these symbols is associated with the same thing: The Resurrection (and by extension, Easter). I would not be surprised if Deathly Hallows reaches a climax at Easter, to make a wild guess from this line:

"That's three Galleons, nine Sickles, and a Knut," said Fred, examining the many boxes in Ron's arms. "Cough up."
(HBP 6 p122)

Three Galleons = three object Horcruxes made of gold
Nine Sickles = nine lunar cycles (counting each sickle moon), roughly the time from mid-summer to Easter
A Knut = nut, which is British slang for head, a reference to Harry as the final Horcrux. Dumbledore also identified Harry as "a Knut" when he said, "It's like losing a Knut and finding a Galleon, isn't it?" (OotP 27 p619)


We can hope that Harry (and Ron) might rise again. Rowling has set down certain rules to complicate this,

"magic cannot bring dead people back to life."
(Rowling)

"There's no chance at all of recovery."
(Lupin re: the Dementor's Kiss, PoA 12 p247)

Despite having a few Christ-like qualities, Harry is not the Son of God and neither he nor Ron can truly come back from the dead. Which is why I expect any "resurrection" to happen on this side of the Veil, both figuratively and (perhaps) literally.



The Meaning of the Prophecy, and...

To begin fleshing out the rest of the end-sequence, let's heed some wisdom from Dumbledore:

"...what the prophecy says is only significant because Voldemort made it so....Voldemort singled you out as the person who would be most dangerous to him -- and in doing so, he made you the person who would be most dangerous to him!"
...
"...he not only handpicked the man most likely to finish him, he handed him uniquely deadly weapons!"
...
"Voldemort himself singled out the remarkable person who sits here in front of me, and gave him the tools for the job!"

(HBP 23 p509-510)

What Dumbledore is telling Harry -- over and over again -- is that the prophecy doesn't really predict the future. Harry is the one who can defeat Voldemort because Voldemort made Harry dangerous; because Voldemort handed him weapons; because Voldemort gave him tools.

These dangerous tools and weapons are, collectively, the soul fragment. Harry is the 'Chosen One' because he is Voldemort's Horcrux. Therefore, we should dismiss any notion that Harry is going to be de-Cruxed before killing Voldemort. Only Harry the Horcrux can permanently defeat Voldemort.

*scratches head*

Impossible? Not in Potterland.

Like all good writers, Rowling follows The Reminder Rule. If a person, item, or magical effect is introduced early and it will be important later, she includes an intermediate reminder.

Example: The Vanishing Cabinet was broken way the heck back in CoS. Before using it as a major part of the plot for HBP, she kindly reminded readers of its existence by stuffing Montague into it during OotP (ch 38).

Example: Regulus Black is introduced in book five, but his importance (as R.A.B.) won't be revelaed until book seven. Thus, Rowling reminded us about him and his history three different times in HBP (Dumbledore ch 3; Slughorn ch 4; Lupin ch 6).


Here's a whopper of a reminder in HBP:

"I always knew yeh'd find it hard ter squeeze me inter yer timetables," [Hagrid] said... "Even if yeh applied fer Time-Turners--"
...
"We smashed the entire stock of Ministry Time-Turners when we were there last summer. It was in the Daily Prophet."

(HBP 11 p231)

Notice how pointless the passage is. When has Hagrid ever talked about Time-Turners? And the fact that they were all allegedly smashed is a red herring of the big and smelly variety, because:



Hence there is a way in which Harry-the-Horcrux can kill Voldemort. Harry just needs to kill himself first, and then take a Time-Turner... wait, that's not it. He needs to kill Voldemort first, then go back and kill himself... no, no, no....


It is not Harry who needs to time-travel for this to work. It is Voldemort.


Back to our scenario, Voldemort has a very good motive: He just lost a Horcrux (or several) through the Veil, and he'd like to get it back. He is knowledgable, of course, and should be aware of this rule:

"But remember this, both of you: you must not be seen. Miss Granger, you know the law -- you know what is at stake....You -- must -- not -- be -- seen."
(Dumbledore, PoA 21 p393)

To accomplish this (if he can't do it with his wand), Voldemort will already have Harry's invisibility cloak. Recall in HBP chapter 28 that Harry left the cloak on top of the Astronomy Tower. He never went back for it. Not coincidentally, Fenrir Greyback was neither captured nor seen escaping with the other Death Eaters. That's because he took the cloak.

So Voldemort will travel back in time. The Time Room is conveniently close, if he doesn't already have a Time-Turner. He knows to remain unseen, but his knowledge of Time-Travel is not sufficient to overcome his arrogance. Here's a rule that he's likely to break:

"Nobody's supposed to change time, nobody!"
(Hermione, PoA 21 p398)

There is another ultra-subtle feature of the Prophecy that is important here. It doesn't relate directly to time-travel, but to the manner of Voldemort's death. Just for fun, let's test your memory. Here is the latter part of the Prophecy with a single word altered. Can you guess what it is?:

And either must die by the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives.

Did you catch it?

The actual Prophecy says that "either must die at the hand of the other", not "by the hand of the other." So Harry does not need to kill Voldemort. He just has to have Voldemort at hand.


Now, I think, you've guessed another part of my scenario, perhaps recalling this:

"...awful things have happened when wizards have meddled with time....Loads of them ended up killing their past or future selves by mistake!"
(Hermione, PoA 21 p399)

Thus when Harry gropes through the darkness to pass the Horcrux(es) to Ron, Voldemort-from-the-future will slip in, hidden by the Invisibility Cloak, and try to intercept them. As a result, he will be killed by his past self. It could easily be an AK Curse instead of Gryffindor's sword, but I thought this line had some good foreshadowing in it:

"Dear me," said Dumbledore... "Impaled upon your own sword, Gilderoy!"

"Sword?" said Lockhart dimly. "Haven't got a sword. That boy has, though." He pointed at Harry.

(CoS 18 p331)

So after the smoke clears, after Voldemort jumps into the past, Hermione will examine Ron's lifeless body and lo! She will find a dead Voldemort lying beneath an invisibility cloak sprawled across Ron, with Voldemort's blood leaking out from beneath the cloak (making it look like Ron was stabbed). It will soon be realized that Ron drank the potion intended for Harry, and it was certainly not poison -- Voldemort didn't want Harry dead. Rather, it was a Draught of Living Death, which matches perfectly with Ron's association to the number fourteen:

Harry shrugged and continued what he was doing. Seven stirs counterclockwise, one clockwise, pause... seven stirs counterclockwise, one stir clockwise...
(HBP 9 p191)

That is a Draught of Living Death that Harry is mixing, and he stirs it (in this passage) a sum total of fourteen times in the counterclockwise direction.


Ron lives!

Now we need to worry about Harry, and the fact that Voldemort still had a Horcrux (Harry) when he got stabbed.



Ginny Weasley, Angel of Mercy

Soon to arrive on the scene, if she's not already there, is Ginny Weasley. She needs to follow Voldemort back and do... something.

How can she follow? If the Time Room is used, she might simply creep along and copy whatever Voldemort did.

An equally likely scenario is that Voldemort takes her along deliberately, as a hostage or a threat or even with the intent of getting some assistance out of her by using the Imperius Curse. Luckily, that won't matter when the time comes -- once Voldemort is impaled, his spell will cease to affect her.


We were already provided a salvation-via-time-travel scenario in PoA, when Harry and Hermione thought Buckbeak was dead and still managed to save him. They seemed to change the past, but only because they did not alter anything that was already known.

First time:
There was... the unmistakable swish and thud of an axe.

"They did it!"

(PoA 16 p331)

Second time:
There was a swishing noise, and the thud of an axe. The excecutioner seemed to have swung it into the fence in anger.
(PoA 21 p402)

So to reiterate this absolutely essential rule: Events cannot be changed, they can only be fulfilled. But the perception of what actually happened can be altered.


What can Ginny do without changing time? At first, she watches, possibly under the Invisibility Cloak and controlled by the Imperius Curse. Then Voldemort gets stabbed -- that's a definite improvement. Harry races to the Veil, exactly as before, and hurls in the Horcrux(es). He is accosted by the Dementor and it starts to suck out his soul.

Hermione makes her effort to repel the Dementor. It is briefly driven back. Voldemort looks the other way, Hermione is fleeing, and Dementors are conveniently blind. Now is Ginny's chance to act without being seen. A good strong Patronus would be nice, just like the one that Harry raised by the lake. But this is different -- her Patronus wasn't there the first time around! No changes allowed!

With Harry in a state of dementus interruptus, Ginny has only one choice:


Kiss Harry.


And suck out his soul.


Once more, the perspective switches back to Harry because he has one more important decision. Ginny is not a Dementor, she is merely taking advantage of Harry's partially-Demented state. She lacks the power to take his soul against his will. The text will now reveal that not only does Harry understand what is happening (Ginny instead of the Dementor), he is capable of resisting. The soul fragment beckons. It has become like a friend; it is the source of Harry's special powers; it is what makes him special. "Take me with you," it says, or perhaps, "Stay with me."

An easy choice, really. Harry is not tempted by power. Good-bye soul fragment, hello Ginny.

Luke 23:46 - ...into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.


The rest of the action is fairly straightforward: Ginny+Harry hides while Voldemort turns his attention back to Harry's body. Recklessly, Voldemort urges the Dementor to get on with sucking out the largest bit of soul in Harry. But all that remains is Voldemort's own soul fragment, so that's what the Dementor takes.

Ergo, the Voldemort who goes back in time has already lost the Harry Horcrux, so his total Horcrux count is down to zero. He dies for good, impaled upon his own sword.

Ginny+Harry waits for the moment of time-travel and then reveals herself. If necessary, she can produce a monster of a Patronus to drive away any remaining Dementors (the happy thoughts will come easy while she is coextant with Harry). She will then regurgitate Harry's soul back into his body.

And they all live happily ever after.



That's the scenario. It may seem like a lot of strangeness that I made up, so now we'll get on with the mountains of evidence that support it.


Spiders, Maggots and Toilets

To make sense of later clues, we have to start by defining three important symbols.

Spiders represent a kind of "good Slytherin," something or someone that has betrayed or forsaken Voldemort.

Toilets and maggots are death omens.


Spiders

When we meet Horace Slughorn, he is not hiding from Voldemort-the-killer, but from Voldemort-the-recruiter:

"What would the Death Eaters want with...me?"

"I imagine they would want to turn your considerable talents to coercion, torture, and murder," said Dumbledore.

(HBP page 68)

After that meeting, this is how Harry thinks of Slughorn:

... a sudden and vivid mental image of a great swollen spider, spinning a web...
(HBP page 75)

We never meet Regulus, but we get a tour of the room where he'd originally left the locket:

They found an unpleasant-looking silver instrument... which scuttled up Harry's arm like a spider when he picked it up
(OotP page 116)
...they found spiders large as saucers
(OotP page 117)

Those two spider references bracket a mere five paragraphs, where there are many hidden clues about Regulus. Notably, the "heavy locket" is mentioned in that span.


Barty Crouch Jr., a.k.a. the imposter Moody, tells Harry,

"Oh if there's one thing I hate... it's a Death Eater who walked free...."
(GoF page 476-477)

His list includes a number of Slytherins who were unwilling to follow the Lestrange route into Azkaban. Knowing this, it's interesting to look back at GoF chapter 14 where Barty Jr. teaches about the Unforgivable Curses. His chosen victims for demonstrating torture and murder are -- you guessed it -- spiders.


Then there's Snape, who lives on a street called Spinner's End -- pretty obvious by itself. Also,

A greasy-haired teenager sat alone in a dark bedroom, pointing his wand at the ceiling, shooting down flies.
(OotP page 591-592)

Spiders kill flies. Later, in Snape's Worst Memory, he is described as walking

in a twitchy manner that recalled a spider
(OotP page 643)

Now is a good time to mention that Voldemort has hands "like large, pale spiders" (GoF 33, et. al.) His own hands? Yes, indeed -- that's more evidence that he'll die by his own hand.



Maggots

This is one of several death omens discovered and developed by Kingsley is the King. You can read more about them in Dragons, toads, dung, etc. Who's going to die in book 7.

The omens originate, appropriately, with CoS chapter 8: 'The Deathday Party.' At the buffet, Harry sees

a great maggoty haggis
(CoS p133)

That tentatively establishes the maggot as a death omen. It is then confirmed in HBP chapter 11:

[The barrel] was full of what looked like foot-long maggots, slimy, white, and writhing.

"I got 'em ter feed ter Aragog." .... "I think he's dyin'...."

(p229-230)


Toilets

Again (thanks to K is the K) this is tentatively established at the Deathday Party:

"She haunts one of the toilets in the girls' bathroom on the first floor," said Hermione.
(p132)

Nicely enough, it had already been used to foreshadow the death of Quirrell:

Quirrell took one look at the troll, let out a faint whipmer, and sat quickly on a toilet
(PS 10 p177)

The meaning is further reinforced a few other times:



With the symbolism identified, we'll now get on to the actual clues.



The Broom Cupboard Theme

In every book thus far, there is some incident with two people inside a cupboard, broom cupboard, or broomshed. This is a metaphorical parallel. The broom cupboard represents the body and the people represent souls, thus the incidents foreshadow the Ginny+Harry state, where two souls share a single body.

Philosopher's Stone, chapter 2:

He found a pair [of socks] under his bed and, after pulling a spider off one of them, put them on. Harry was used to spiders, because the cupboard under the stairs was full of them, and that was where he slept.

The two individuals are Harry and the spider -- or, if you like, Harry and the soul fragment. The soul fragment in Harry is definitely a "good Slytherin." Also, Harry's casual familiarity with spiders is very like his casual familiarity with the soul fragment, as demonstrated in CoS 13:

the name T.M. Riddle...seemed to mean something to him, almost as though Riddle was a friend he'd has when he was very small

Harry's action is to "clean" a sock by plucking a spider from it. Knowing the symbols, we can see that this is connected to the de-Cruxing of Harry.


Chamber of Secrets, chapter 12:

[Hermione:] "...hide them in the broom closet."
...
Once they were safely stowed among the buckets and mops, Harry yanked out a couple of the bristles that covered Goyle's forehead and Ron pulled out several of Crabbe's hairs.

(p213-215)

Two people, Crabbe and Goyle, are hidden in a broom closet. Observe that Harry yanks something out of Goyle's forehead, again making a connection to Harry's eventual de-Cruxing.


Prisoner of Azkaban, chapter 21:

Hermione seized Harry's arm and dragged him across the hall to the door of a broom closet;... "We've gone back in time," Hermione whispered
(p394-395)

No mystery here. The event is connected with time-travel.


Goblet of Fire, chapter 18:

"Let's see...ah, yes, this is nice and cozy."

It was a broom cupboard. Harry stared at her.

...

Rita Skeeter's smile widened. Harry counted three gold teeth.

(p303-306)

Three of something gold conects to the remaining object Horcruxes. Rita's conversation focuses on Harry's scar and related matters.


Order of the Phoenix, chapter 18:

"It's bizarre," said Fred, frowning around at it. "We once hid from Filch in here, remember, George? But it was just a broom cupboard then...."
(p391)

Two people hiding in a broom cupboard, again.


Half-blood Prince, chapter 4:

Dumbledore pointed toward a run-down stone outhouse where the Weasleys kept their broomsticks.

... Harry nodded, his eyes fixed resolutely on the spider now climbing Dumbledore's hat.

..."I take my hat off to you -- or I would, if I were not afraid of showing you in spiders."

..."There are only two people in the whole world who know the full contents of the prophecy made about you and Lord Voldemort, and they are both standing in this smelly, spidery broom shed."

(p76-78)

Harry and Dumbledore discuss the prophecy. I think the spiders suggest that Dumbledore has Snape on his mind (this is shortly after Snape took the Vow; Dumbledore has already given Snape the D.A.D.A. post). Also, they might be intended to remind us of the spiders in Harry's cupboard, and the "bit of Slytherin" that the Sorting Hat saw inside of Harry's head.


In addition to the incidents involving two persons, we have two more notable broomsheds:

"There is not a shred of evidence that Slytherin ever built so much as a secret broom cupboard!"
(CoS 9 p152)

No symbolism that I can see, but it highlights the broom cupboard as a recurring and deliberate theme.


"She's been breaking into your broom shed in the garden since the age of six and taking each of your brooms out in turn when you weren't looking," said Hermione from behind her tottering pile of Ancient Rune books...
(OotP 26 p574)

Hermione is talking about Ginny. She is talking about Ginny covertly taking something from a broom shed, which is a perfect parallel to the end sequence where she takes Harry's soul from his body/broomshed.



Ginny Effects and the Christmas Concordance

Order of the Phoenix opens with a Dementor attack on Harry and Dudley. In addition to being part of the immediate plot, it allows Rowling to pile on a lot of important clues and tutorials.

For example, she repeats many times that the Dementors bring darkness:

He turned his head this way and that, trying to see something, but the darkness pressed on his eyes like a weightless veil.
(OotP p16)

This is moderately important to the use of time-travel in the end sequence. Time-travelers must not be seen.


We also have author-to-reader clues, like this parallel:

a second dementor was crouching low over him, gripping his wrists in its slimy hands, prizing them slowly, almost lovingly apart, lowering its hooded head toward Dudley's face as though about to kiss him....

and

A much smaller and warmer hand [Ginny's] had enclosed his [Harry's] and was pulling him upward. He obeyed its pressure without really thinking about it.
(HBP 29 p611)

The Dementors also have this effect on Harry:

The cold was so intense that he was shivering all over; goose bumps had erupted up his arms

Goose bumps do not show up very often, so let's look carefully at another rare occurrence, 'A Very Frosty Christmas' (HBP ch 16):

...Mrs. Weasley herself, who was sporting a brand-new midnight blue witch's hat glittering with what looked like tiny starlike diamonds, and a spectacular golden necklace.

Diamond is another rare word, appearing only here and in the Time Room in the Department of Mysteries. In the Time Room, Ginny is fascinated by the crystal bell jar, with its "dancing, diamond-bright light" (OotP 34 p776). So we have a connection to Ginny and time-travel.

"Fred and George gave them to me! Aren't they beautiful?"

"Well, we find we appreciate you more and more, Mum, now we're washing our own socks," said George...

Again, the all-important washing of socks. We have a connection to the de-Cruxing of Harry.

"Harry, you've got a maggot in your hair," said Ginny cheerfully, leaning across the table to pick it out; Harry felt goose bumps erupt up his neck that had nothing to do with the maggot.

And finally, Ginny plucks a maggot -- a death omen -- away from Harry. At that moment, she has a Dementor-like effect (goose bumps) on Harry.



Toilet Seats and Regurgitation

If you recall the film version of Chamber of Secrets, Moaning Myrtle offered to share her toilet with a potentially dead Harry before Harry went down into the Chamber. As a moment of dark humor, the film timing works much better. But in the book, Myrtle makes her offer after Harry has already survived, which is kind of lame. Why did Rowling do it this way?

"I'd just been thinking...if you had died, you'd have been welcome to share my toilet," said Myrtle, blushing silver.

"Urgh!" said Ron... "Harry! I think Myrtle's grown fond of you! You've got competition, Ginny!"

(CoS 17 p326)

Firstly, the exchange reinforces the toilet as a death symbol. In this instance, it is not related to a cause of death, but represents a vessel for the spirit (ghost), much like a broom cupboard.

Secondly, we can see what was made possible by waiting until Harry was already safe: Ron's comment about Ginny competing with Myrtle (to host Harry's spirit).


The toilet seat connection was actually forged between Harry and Ginny in the first book, courtesy of these two passages:

"We'll send you a Hogwarts toilet seat."
(Twins to Ginny, PS 6 p97)
"I believe your friends Misters Fred and George Weasley were responsible for trying to send you a toilet seat. No doubt they thought it would amuse you. Madam Pomfrey, however, felt it might not be very hygienic, and confiscated it."
(PS 17 p269)

So, keep in mind what the toilet seat represents -- a vessel for the spirit -- and what is being foreshadowed -- Ginny sharing with Harry -- and look at what happens in the darkness of Harry's (and Ginny's) very first Dementor encounter:

[Hermione:] "Ginny?"

[Ginny:] "Hermione?"

[Hr:] "What are you doing?"

[G:] "I was looking for Ron."

[Hr:] "Come in and sit down--"

"Not here!" said Harry hurriedly. "I'm here!"

(PoA 5 p82)

Ginny almost shares Harry's seat (kind of cute, I think) but Harry calls our attention to the abnormality of two entities occupying a space intended for only one.


We're just getting started with toilets!


The grandmaster of all foreshadowing is a rather unlikely character: Cornelius Fudge. He has a single line in OotP chapter 27 which quite nearly gives away the ending:

"Willy Widdershins was lying, was he? Or was it Potter's identical twin in the Hog's Head that day? Or is there the usual simple explanation involving a reversal of time, a dead man coming back to life, and a couple of invisible dementors?"

The "reversal of time" doesn't need any explanation. The "dead man coming back to life" is not literally possible in Potterland, hence the scenario I described above. And Ginny, who must keep hidden during the time travel, acts as an "invisible dementor".

Twin - the name 'Tom' (as in 'Tom Riddle') means 'twin'. This relates to the circumstance of Voldemort's death, where there are two of him and one kills the other.

Widdershins - simply means 'anticlockwise' (or 'counterclockwise'). It relates to time travel.


Best of all, Willy Widdershins takes us right back to toilets. And not just ordinary toilets, but regurgitating toilets. Given the symbolic meaning (vessel for the spirit), we can understand that regurgitating toilets foreshadow what Ginny must do: Share her vessel with Harry, and then regurgitate his soul into Harry's own body.

We've already seen a literal toilet regurgitate a bit of soul: In CoS, Ginny threw the diary Horcrux into Myrtle's toilet; and Myrtle spat it back out.


Back to Willy:

"You know Willy turned out to be behind those regurgitating toilets last summer? One of his jinxes backfired..."
(OotP 22 p489)

"Third regurgitating public toilet reported in Bethnal Green..."
(OotP 7 p133)

I've highlighted third because the number three is linked to the essential elements of the theory: Harry wakes up in the hospital wing after three days (PS 17); Harry and Hermione use three turns of the Time Turner to go back three hours (PoA 21), and when they scramble back toward the Hospital Wing, Hermione says, "Three minutes, Harry!" (PoA 22); Ginny complains that Fleur talks to her like "I was about three!"

When Harry and Ginny are actually going out, we have one little scene in the Gryffindor common room (HBP 25) where Ginny is sitting on the floor leaning against Harry's legs (note: one seat between the two of them) and reads about "Three Dementor attacks in a week...".


In OotP chapter 7, Mr. Weasley lists each location where regurgitating toilets were reported: Wimbledon, Elephant and Castle, and Bethnal Green. We can guess that Rowling did not have unlimited mutability in choosing these names -- there are only a finite number of boroughs and localities in London -- but she seems to have chosen two of them to make some connection to Ginny.

From wikipedia's entry for Elephant and Castle:

The name itself predates this account. Apocryphally, it is a corruption of the Spanish Infanta de Castilla, meaning the eldest daughter of a monarch...

Arthur Weasley is named for a monarch (King Arthur) and Ginny is his only daughter.

The entry for Bethnal Green includes this:

A Tudor ballad about the 'Blind Beggar of Bethnal Green' tells the story of an ostensibly poor man who gave a surprisingly generous dowry for his daughter's wedding.

Who but Arthur could be descirbed as "an ostensibly poor man"? Again, Ginny is his only daughter.


One of these regions crops up again in HBP:

"No, we got wind of a nasty backfiring jinx down in Elephant and Castle..."
(Mr. Weasley, HBP 5 p87)

The term 'backfire' isn't as strong a clue as a regurgitating toilet, but it should remind us of Willy Widdershins.


More Regurgitation

The Fred & George product that gets the most attention is the Puking Pastille.

In GoF 36, Dumbledore describes the PI effect saying "one of the wands will force the other to regurgitate spells it has performed..."

Neither of these has a strong connection to my theory, but they highlight the recurring theme of regurgitation.


Here are a few more tidbits that do seem to connect:

Ginny mimed vomiting into her cereal behind Fleur.
(HBP 6 p108)

"Slughorn could've handed me that book, but no, I get the one no one's ever written on. Puked on, by the look of page fifty-two, but--"

"Hang on,"... Ginny had joined them.

(HBP 9 p192)

Ginny didn't say anything, but glanced up and down the Gryffindor table with a scared look on her face...

"Spit it out," said Ron, watching her.

(CoS 16 p285)

And the line cited earlier:

"That's three Galleons, nine Sickles, and a Knut," said Fred, examining the many boxes in Ron's arms. "Cough up."
(HBP 6 p122)



Miscellaneous Clues

"The dementors send their love, Potter!"
(Draco, PoA 8 p159)


First Kisses

Harry's first kiss of any kind comes from the three Gryffindor Chasers after winning the Quidditch Cup in PoA (ch 13). Not coincidentally, this takes place in the presence of three phony Dementors (Flint, Crabbe, and Malfoy+Goyle).

Harry's first romantic kiss (Cho) includes "a tingling sensation...spreading throughout him, paralyzing his arms, legs and brain." Just guessing, I think this what it feels like to get Demented.

Harry's first kiss with Ginny includes a loss of temporal sensation (it might have been half an hour -- or possibly several sunlit days; HBP 24 p533). This is very similar to what Voldemort describes from his own disembodied adventure.

Later, Harry describes his time with Ginny as being "like something out of someone else's life..." (HBP 30 p646).


Strange Death Omens

Another of Kingsley's death omens is dung.
"You just chuck stuff at the door and if it can't make contact the door's been Inperturbed. I've been flicking Dungbombs at it from the top of the stairs..."

"Ginny your hands are filthy, what have you been doing? Go and wash them before dinner, please...."

(OotP 4 p69 & 75)

Bob Rozak observed the oddity of this event, wondering why Ginny had death on her hands. I think I can answer that she is responsible, ultimately, for the Dementing of Harry; and his soul will be "in her hands" for a time.

The incident takes place behind an Inperturbable door (= the Veil). Ginny is testing it, just as she will test the lengths a person might go to in order to avert a Dementing.

Also, you should read the Harry (possibly) section of this post by Kingsley. It has more clues about Harry, toilets, dung, and Ginny, all of which match perfectly.


The Film Version of Prisoner of Azkaban

Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling says that Alfonso Cuaron, who directed The Prisoner of Azkaban... inadvertently foreshadowed events that will happen in books six and seven...
(quoted from USA Today, 27 May 2004)

Take careful note: Alfonso Cuaron, the director, committed the foreshadowing. NOT Steven Kloves, the screenplay writer. Ergo, it is not be found in the script or the dialogue, but most likely in a visual effect.

Remember the Dementors' attack on Sirius? They left him, for a time, lying on his back with his little glowing soul floating several inches above his mouth.

There are two things we can say are probably anti-canonical: Dementors do not Dement from twelve feet away, nor should the soul be floating around like that.

But the concept demonstrated is still remarkable: Namely, that a Dementor's Kiss can be interrupted, leaving the victim partially Demented, with the soul poised on the edge of removal, ready for the taking. I imagine that Harry's soul will be somehow disembodied/disconnected, and just reaching the tip of his lips when Ginny steps in to finish the job. But again, the particulars of location are not nearly as important as the concept.



Summary of Essentials



Hypothetically, Ginny could do this without time-traveling. But the time-travel scenario heightens the drama and tells Ginny what she needs to do (she's seen the results and her options are limited).
