Valky replies:
Regarding your digression Kneasy I haven't the faintest clue how to 
answer you. Except to say that When? really seems to come into play 
when we take into account the Mystery of the Third Imperio, a post 
I'm also familiar with and glad you brought it up.

Just to clarify first my 4th scenario and why I had suggested 
Imperio context may be applicable, (NB my original post did invite 
the reader to add context of their own) I hint at Imperio as a 
context for this scenario as I imagine perhaps if LV was to somehow 
find out the last part of the prophecy and read into it as I have 
that the term *other* applies to Neville that he would have his 
perfect weapon against his would be defeat in the boys. 

In more detail supposing the paragraph before had come to pass and 
LV was aware that he or Harry must die by Nevilles hand, he could 
devise a plan where he might Imperio one or both of the boys to duel 
each other to the death. 

And just supposing that the term *other exclusively pertains to 
Neville if Harry were to by some stroke of misfortune slay Neville. 
Then the neither can live while the *other/Neville survives would be 
fulfilled. And the surviving of the either would be freed of the 
prophetic doom. 


Is that clear? 8-0 .........not really?
