Hi Katie, I would have thought the same, but then I remember reading
in JKR's web site that the HBP does not appear in Chamber, or that
there is nothing in Chamber that relates to the HBP. I think that the
HBP is going to be a new character, maybe the new Defense against The
Dark Arts teacher.
On the other hand, there is something that Harry discovers in chamber that is going to be important in the sixth book.
I stared to list all the things that Harry discovered in Chamber and
Hagrid being framed was on the top 3. The thing is that this was
already dealt with in POA: Hagrid was absolved and became a teacher.
Now, I think we are looking for something that Harry discovered and
that hasn't been properly dealt with just yet. Harry being
parseltongue was another discovery, then we learned that this power
was transmitted by Voldemort to Harry when he received the death
curse. The key might be in this piece of information. Probably, the
ability to talk to snakes might not be the only power Harry inherited
from Voldemort. Maybe Harry can possess people the same way Voldemort
does, but he is not yet aware of this power.
What else does Harry discover in Chamber? He learns about the existence of house elves and Slytherin's chamber of secrets, about Fawkes, about the diary and Lucius Malfoy, also about Lucius having a lot of dark objects that he
wants to keep secret. He learns that Ginny has a crush on him and
that the Hat hides Gryffindor's sword. Other ideas to add to this
list?
Anyone?
