In the beginning of Goblet of Fire, when Harry dreamed (or rather
saw) what was happening at the Riddle House that night
between Frank Bryce, Voldemort, and Wormtail, and then wrote
to Sirius about his scar, but left out the dream part, did anyone
realize that by putting in the dream he could have maybe saved
Cedric from dying, or at least stopped Voldemort from rising
again? Harry didn't of course realize it at the time, but what he
dreamed was not actually a dream, but a vision of what was
really happening. Dumbledore had thought that Harry might feel
what Voldemort was feeling, and that he was connected to
Voldemort. And since Sirius was in contact with Dumbeldore, if
Harry had described the dream to Sirius, Sirius would have most
likely passed it on to Dumbledore. Then Dumbledore would
have, I'm sure, figured Voldemort's plan out in the end... given
this information from the dream. If he wouldn't have figured out
the whole plan, he would have at least been suspicious and
might have canceled the Triwizard Tournament, or done
SOMETHING.
So everytime I read the part where Harry leaves out the dream in
the letter, I think, "Oooh, if he had JUST put that in..." Of course, I
know that it was essential to the plot that Voldemort rose again,
just so Harry can defeat him once and for all in the end (which I
think will happen.)
Did anyone else make this realization?
