Hello all
Wow, did she really say that, very interesting. I have not been on
this list long but have picked up from other lists a theory that has
LV and Harry fall through the veil together, that is after Harry lures
him there. The suggested outcome being that through sacrifice, Harry
was able to re emerge.
But sticking to Christian themes, the little I know. Resurrection,
well wonder how that will fit into it if true. Possibly could have
them all surface for the war, and they way things are going, the extra
numbers might be needed unless there is a way to prevent anymore factions
going to LV. But sticking to this theme. Ensuring this situation never
rises again, well, I'm still thinking hard as to how that could be made
to come about. Not sure the Christian (bible) outcome of annihilation is
really workable here.
Still if it is written this way, the next two books will probably have fast
forward action to tidy all the ends.
