I think we might see some basic change in the morals and ethos of the
WW. But I suspect it will come from within the WW itself with any
Muggle influence being indirect. That way JKR can preserve her fun
and avoid all the messy entanglements that might otherwise arise.
Alla:
Oh, absolutely. After she said that the breach was final, that is
exactly what I think too. I am just wondering what would be the
driving force for such change, if it were to occur. You know, if it
is not collision with muggle world, which it is not for sure, what
IS it then?
Voldemort's defeat? But then nothing really changed after Dumbledore
defeated Gridenwald and after Harry defeated him for the first time.
I guess this time must be different somehow.
Actually, no scratch that something did change, albeit in small way.
As Dobby says house elves are treated better now, sort of.
So, I can see Dobby playing important role in defeating Voldie and
accordingly status of house elves may change. But so many things
need to be changed on so many levels (IMO only) and I am just not
sure that sure that Voldie's demize will force them all to occur.
What do you think?
JMO,
Alla
