Hi,
This is my first post, so please forgive me if this question has
already been discussed to death.
I was rereading OOTP the other day, and something struck me about the
battle at the MOM at the end of the book. Harry starts out at the MOM
with Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Luna and Neville. However, by the time he
reaches the Veil Room for the final showdown with the Death Eaters,
only he and Neville are left. All of the others have been incapacitated
in some way and are in other rooms.
I also noticed that Neville didn't make it far in this last battle
before being pretty much taken out of commission by the Jelly-Legs Jinx
and his broken nose. Of the two of them, only Harry is still standing
when the Order members burst in.
Knowing what we now know about the prophecy, do you think this was a
foreshadowing/hint from JKR? Am I the last person on Earth to notice it?
Karen
