Thanks for the feedback, Elia. I think, however, that you may have
missed the central point in this theory: Ron's going to die because
it's the only way he'll be better than his brothers. Ron has
demonstrated enough that he resents being in the shadows (of his
brother's deeds and, afterwards, of Harry's deeds, as stated by
Hermione in GoF). If Ron dies a heroic death which brings about the
destruction of Voldemort, there's not a single thing any of his
brothers can do to top it. Thus, Ron's life-long wish would be granted.
The chess idea was meant as an example. Reflecting on my previous
theory posts, however, it seems I always have trouble with the
examples, so maybe I'll stop using them.
Anyway, hope that helps,
Grey Wolf
