Hmmmm.... I wonder, Evangelina --

Harry, Hermione, and Ron [and now, increasingly, Neville & others] 
have survived thus far by working TOGETHER -- pooling their 
resources, tapping each other's various strengths, braveries, and 
competencies -- working as a team.

It's the Dark Lord who insists, finally, that the only Trinity that 
matters consists of "Me, Myself, and I" -- to whom everything and 
everyone [even, ultimately, Death itself] must be subservient.

Methinx, perhaps, that interdependence and cooperation may, in fact, 
be the key to --if not "everything"-- a lot.
