OOP: Veiled Arch

[EJ]

Re-reading some passages and a few things hit me. Dumbledore called the 
archway with the veil a "Death Chamber".  I am venturing to guess, 
considering the set up of the room with seats , it may be where bad wizards 
are sent to "die", like an electric chair of sorts. Maybe a soul keeper. 
Since Sirius was not meant to "die" that way but merely fell into it, he 
may not be technically dead. We also didn't hear what curse was used, it 
could have been "stupefy" for all we know. His death was not tidy, it 
should have been at least discussed or explained by the end of the book. I 
can't quite buy that this is the last we will see of Sirius.
