Just last night I posted a plot theory that either no one read, or no
one liked, because nobody replied to it. In either case, I would
really like some feedback on the idea. I contend that somehow
Voldemort will lose his soul to a Dementor's kiss, probably while he
is posessing Harry. Harry will then be the only person to be able to
tell us what it feels like to be Kissed by a Dementor, and Voldemort
will be worse than dead.
Here is my support:
1. Harry would have to face his greatest fear, and that makes sense
structurally, especially from a hero's journey POV.
2. DD did promise LV a fate worse than (physical) death.
3. JKR promised us that Harry would be getting another kiss, but she
didn't say from whom. She said it in relation to a SHIPping
question, but I think she was misdirecting us.
My former post on this subject is #119223.
