Well, even IF we take for granted SOMEONE's going to die, I don't see 
why you assume it's going to be Hagrid. You would need to be more 
specific about that. (Of course, I don't like the idea of him dying, 
that's obvious.) If GoF is anything to go on, I feel it more likely 
that some minor character is going to be the victim, anyway. After 
all, Cedric, on second thoughts, seems to have been invented for the 
only pupose to get killed off. Anyway, if it was book 7 we're talking 
about, it would seem more likely that some of the major characters 
are in for it, but definitely not book 5.
However, I fully agree with you that "Giant Land" would be an 
interesting place to see.
