But they may well provide the packed lunch at half-time in the final
battle."
Now Kathryn:
The house elves may not be Dumbledore's Army, but I'm betting they
are going to be crucial in the battle. Such significance has been
placed on the fact that you cannot apparate into/out of Hogwarts, not
just by Hermione, but I believe Snape as well. (don't have the books
handy) Yet, Dobby apparates in CoS in the hospital ward. We've seen
powerful elf magic, and even Malfoy Sr. backs off. Also, I remember
a thread months ago which was discussing which scene in the movie JKR
insisted stay in. IMHO I think it was Dobby apparating.
Of course you've got the whole SPEW theme and the house elf in the
fountain as well. Forget the goblins, the house elves are going to
be key!
