On her website JK talks about a chapter that was originally supposed
to be in Book One, then she tried it in other books, but it never fit
right but now she is firmly placing it in Half Blood Prince. So
what's this chapter about? Obviously not something directly related
to the plot of any one book.
My guess is it is about the founding of Hogwarts. I can imagine the
first book giving us the background to how the four Founders created
the school, which we are about to be introduced to when Harry goes
there. But it probably held up the story even more than the
introduction to the whole world - which she said was hard to write,
to get all the information in about how magic works, how Harry
defeated Voldemort etc.
Then it could have fitted in with other books, for instance in CoS
explaining more about Slytherin.
If the Half Blood Prince turns out to be Godric Gryffindor, then a
chapter about the founding of Hogwarts would fit in perfectly.
Any other suggestions for what this missing chapter is about?
