I don't think Narcissa's act was totally unselfish. I don't think she 
could have cared less if Harry survived or not. And as for their 
being in Hogwarts at the end...the Malfoys were there only to find 
and retrieve Draco. Again, I don't think they really cared if 
Hogwarts fell and everyone was killed. They only cared about Draco 
and themselves.

There's nothing wrong with looking out for yourself, but their 
actions are in no way as noble as the Weasley's who fought for their 
own self-preservation but also for the preservation of the WW, imo.
