Anna:
I also think there is an important reason for Ollivander's
disappearance..We know two important things. 1. The wand chooses the
wizard and 2. Voldemort and Harry's wands do not work properly when
turned on one another.  So we have to ask:  If Harry is the only
person who can kill Voldermort why would Voldemort's "twin" wand
choose Harry?  This has puzzled me since I read the scene in GOF
where the wands connect and then when Dumbledore explained whey they
didn't work against one another like they should.  How is Harry to
defeat him if his wand is not going to work properly?  I think
Ollivander was taken and made to create a new wand for Voldemort; or
went into hiding to prevent just that from happening.  I also think
it will come down to Harry having to learn "wandless" spells.
