Aggie:

This post, #103092 (written only a couple of weeks ago but more than 
20000 posts ago! WOW!)  refers to a theory I thought was canon!  

When I originally read GOF, and when Dumbledore got his gleam, I 
thought it went on to say that this was because Harry had provided 
the blood and therefore this meant LV was mortal, at least for a 
while.  However, I cannot find it now!!  I am seriously beginning to 
believe that I dreamt it, or was trying to decipher 'the gleam' as I 
was reading!  I have, however, found one reference to LV being 
mortal. . .GoF Ch33 The Death Eaters, p569 UK version.

"There was no hope stealing the Philosopher's stone any more>...<But 
I was willing to embrace mortal life again, before chasing immortal. 
I set my sights lower...>"

I apologise as I'm sure that this quote has been done to death. I was 
just looking at GoF to get the death eaters straight in my head and 
thought about my original ramblings and decided to share them with 
you all!

Aren't I kind!?!  ;o))
