I've been thinking a lot about the keeper of the Hall of
Prophesies and the only 2 people that knows the full contents of the
prophesy for a long time every time I'm re-reading the OotP and the
HBP and it always come to my mind that maybe the keeper of the HOP
is DD? I know it sounds off but it does connect with your question
on why Voldemort doesn't go after the keeper? Is it maybe because he
knows who the keeper of HOP is and he's afraid of him? And who's the
only person Voldy's afraid, is it not DD? So that is my take on
this, maybe DD is the keeper of HOP.
