<snip> JKR answered just one question about Narcissa Malfoy, very
directly, during the chat: <snip> It did get me wondering about
Lucius.  Just how long will he be in prison for?  If his wife is about
to step into the limelight, or at least a little light, for a while,
it seems to indicate that he may be in prison for longer that I had
thought.  Of course we could just end up with a brief glimpse of
Narcissa before she disaperates back to Malfoy Mansion, but I do hope
not.  As much as I enjoy Lucius' antics, I would like to spend some
time with Narcissa and find out whom she is, and what is she really
all about?  Especially now her sister has resurfaced to terrorize the
WW.  Who better to know Bellatrix's Achilles heel than her own sister?

Carol:
Or who better to aid and abet sister Bellatrix, who is now a wanted
fugitive as their cousin Sirius was earlier? I don't trust Narcissa,
given that she's Kreacher's second favorite Black relative and that
she shared the information he gave her with Lucius. She's also
obviously an anti-Muggle and Muggle-born snob, given her behavior at
the World Quidditch Cup. I wouldn't be surprised if she was baiting
the Roberts family with Lucius. After all, she attended the match, but
she wasn't with Draco in the forest. Where was she, then, if not with
Lucius?

I do think we'll see more of Narcissa, but I very much doubt that
she's a secret good guy. (Maybe she's doing something with those
poisons and other Dark artifacts hidden under the floorboards of the
Malfoy manor.)
