Well, Harry has sort of been adopted into Arthur Weasely's family, 
eh?  And he had to be raised by someone else due to the death of his 
family...though if Petunia Dursley turns out to be soul sister to the 
Lady of the Lake, I'll be reeeeeally surprised....  :-P

There are also legends that say Vivianne (the Lady of the Lake) is actually 
Lancelot's (hence the name Lancelot du Lac) mother.  Also, her sisters were 
Igraine and Morgause.  Igraine being the mother of Arthur and Morgaine.  The 
three sisters, Vivianne, Igraine, and Morgause really didn't get along too 
well, either....  We already know that Petunia IS Harry's (Lancelot's) 
biological aunt.  

So, we have Lily and Petunia.  I do believe there is a third sister.  
Narcissa is my guess.  

I have always thought the coincidence between Harry Potter and Arthurian 
Legend were too many to be truely coincidence.  The only problem is deciding 
which legend to go off of!  LOL  Thank you for this conversation!

"Don't be prat, Neville, that's illegal," said George. "They wouldn't use the 
Cruciatus Curse on the champions. I thought it sounded a bit like Percy 
singing... maybe you've got to attack him while he's in the shower, Harry."
