Since someone else mentioned a TV show episode in regards to Harry
Potter, I felt it was acceptable to mention some things that
happened in the ALIAS finale this week. If you did not see it and
plan to do so, there are some spoilers below.
Sydney Bristow has been called the Chosen One in the past. In this
episode her dying father, (Jack Bristow) tells her that only she can
face and defeat her mother. The dying father, JAck then confronts
the evil Arvin Sloane who has finally attained eternal life. He
realizes that Sloane can never be killed now, so the dying Jack does
the next best thing. He blows up the cavern that they are both
standing inside and traps Sloane in the rubble for eternity. Sloane
cannot die, but cannot move to escape.
I immediately thought of Dumbledore's statement that "there are
worse things than death". I must confess that trapping Voldemort
for all eternity in an undead state with no horcruxes and no helpers
to find him would prevent Harry from having to actually kill
Voldemort. I think this may be a possible ending for Book Seven. A
dead Voldemort forces Harry to be considered a murderer, but an
eternally trapped Voldy is much more effective. Harry will not have
become a trained assassin as his legacy from Hogwarts.
What do you think?
