You know, when I first read that line, and connected the 'gleam' with 
the fact that Harry'd just said that Voldemort could now touch him, 
all I could think to myself was "NOOOOOOOOO! Dumbledore's E-VIL!"

I had to spend weeks slowly reversing my position on that one line, 
because my first impression was SO strongly in the negative direction.

Is this what you were referring to, Rona, something along these lines?

Rona replies:

Yes Tom that is exactly what I was saying and I had the same thought as you.   The thing is that Merlin wasn't a good wizard like say Cinderella godmother(witch), but a ruthless person who instructed others.  Thats just me.  Sorry if this was an old thread.
