Ronaldo:
I thought al the phoenix imagery was a clue to a possible
"rebirth", like phoenixes die and then are reborn.
The white tomb, that nobody seemed to expect, would
be analogous to the egg of the phoenix. So it may
take some time, but perhaps DD will be back before the
end of BK7.
I feel the speech DD gave to the Dursleys in the beginning
of the book was a clue to the fact that he didn't expect
to be around one year later...
