	When reading that, I was thinking that Percy would be a logical 
candidate. It would show that, in a war of that scale, there are no 
neutrals. Which made me think of something (subsequently, I looked it up 
on the web, and found that I'm not the only one who has thought of 
this). Especially since JKR has promised that, by the end of book 7, the 
Christianity of her outlook will be clear (or words to that effect).

	The situation in the Potterverse is very much like Milton's Paradise 
Lost. The magic world is small, but they are far more powerful than 
humans. Yet, they accept the human sovereignty over the Earth. There are 
a group of rebels, who believe that they should rule over the Earth with 
their power. And the forces of good are aligning against the forces of 
evil for a final battle. Included in this are clear statements  by JKR 
that there will be no more Harry Potter books. This implies that the 
final battle will be the Final Battle.

	I am going to take a leap and predict the following: After the final 
battle between Harry and Voldemort, the Wizarding World will be no more.
