Lolita:

I've thought about this, too, and I think that they do seem  
convenient to do something about the bits of soul. Besides, I think 
that not enough has been said *about* them. They have been important 
since book 3, where they played a major role as the villains of the 
piece (with no LV and PP only showing up at the end). In book 4 the 
dementor that destroyed Crouch Jnr effectively helped LV to stay 
hidden, and the two in book 5 caused major problems for Harry. 
However, not much has been said about them, except for the fact that 
they have constantly been described as evil and foul. But the 
problem, as I see it, is how to make Dementors obey you? Or at least, 
how to tell them that you want them to suck the pieces of soul hidden 
in Horcruxes (if the Horcrux is said to be the *object* in which sb 
has hidden part of their soul) without having them trying to do it to 
*you* instead? Do you make a pact with them of some kind - is that 
how the MoM controlled them up to a cetrain point? I have no theory 
about that. But I definitely think that we shall hear more of them.

Cheers,
Lolita
