Hi all, I'm new here (amazed at the amount of posts I've read over
the last week or so - I feel as if I've been sitting at the computer
24/7!) but a thought just came to me while reading some of the mirror
of erised posts.
We know that the inscription on the mirror is reversed, and someone
here postulated that you may have to turn away from the mirror to
truly see the inscription, and JKR has said that the mirror Sirius
gave to Harry will be important. What if Harry must face away from
the mirror, but hold up Sirius's mirror so that he sees the
inscription clearly and then whatever is reflected at him backwards
in the mirror would be the true reflection, and can be used as some
kind of weapon, or information etc against LV or regarding Sirius,
who may have some informaiton from beyond the grave!
Just a thought!
