Nikkalmati:
Fleur seemed like an interesting minor character in GOF, so what happened in
HBP? Now she is marrying Bill who came back from Egypt, why? Her place in
the story has expanded with Bill's attack by a werewolf, making him closely
related to Lupin, and his curse-breaking skills which may play a role in Harry's
horcrux hunt. And her wedding is likely to be one of the opening scenes in
HBP II, even if the tiara is not a horcrux, as has been proposed. She is
likely to be around a lot in the next book. So much between her and Bill seems
to have happened when we weren't watching. Is this just a matter of being
tied to Harry's POV?
