What I want to know is this..what would happen if a person tried to make an 
Unbreakable Vow which directly contradicts a previous Unbreakable Vow? This 
could easily happen under the pressure that a wizard could get into..for example 
if DD had demanded a UV from Snape to protect Harry, followed by LV demanding 
a UV to kill Harry. How could you refuse LV? Would a wizard be physically able 
to utter that second vow, or would he be unable to do it, since it goes 
against a previous vow? Or perhaps he would die upon uttering the new vow, since by 
making that new vow, he is guaranteeing that he will break the first one. 
This was just a thought that occurred to me.
