Carol:
I agree. In fact, I think that if anyone AKs anyone else, it will be
the DEs killing each other. How about Peter fulfilling his life debt
to Harry by AKing Bella--or even grabbing her by the throat with that
silver hand, which has to play a role somehow? And maybe Snape will
kill Lucius, who I suspect will try to betray him. It's impossible to
say, of course, but to imagine Harry going on a rampage to kill DEs is
like imagining Frodo hunting orcs. It's not going to happen, IMO.
