Ahhh yes but IF the boa had been Nagini then would the snake have 
owed Harry a life debt for setting it free from the zoo? Or if not a 
life debt, then just have felt less inclined to harm Harry because 
it was grateful to him? 

Deb (djklaugh) who has wondered what Nagini's purpose was in the 
graveyard scene in GOF... all she does is circle round and round - 
and where had she gotten to when the dome of light formed?
