  the use of *Harry's* blood. > > > >


  Me: There's something else. Remember Harry saved Wormtail's life. So Voldemort has now blood from Harry and blood and flesh from Wormtail who owes his life to Harry. That may prevent his killing Harry. A part of Wormtail is now in LV and this old magic shouldn't be forgoten. As Dumbledore himself told Harry: "this is magic at its deepest, its most impenetrable, Harry. But trust me... the time may come when you will be very glad you saved Pettigrew's life". So my theory is it won't be Pettigrew who prevents Voldemort killing Harry, but his flesh and blood now a part of Voldemort's new body.
