 (I thought that Travers, Imperiused by Harry in

Potioncat:
I was curious about Travers once before, and re-read the Gringotts 
chapter very carefully. The last we see him, he's hiding in a niche 
in the tunnel. Well, with all the blasting out of the passageways to 
make room for a dragon, I doubt Travers survived.

I wonder what happened to Griphook too. The Goblin (not Griphook) who 
reports to LV dies. Did he report voluntarily, was summoned, or 
brought in by the DEs? Afterwards, what did the surviving Goblins do 
to Griphook, do you think?

I will feel really stupid if Griphook was fighting at Hogwarts.

were.

Potioncat:
I wonder why JKR didn't identify the DEs who died because of LV's 
tantrum? Wouldn't that give it a bigger emotional punch? I pictured 
LV as sort of waving his wand wildly while yelling the AK curse--so 
that the killing was random. But others seem to think he had to aim 
at one specific person at a time and cast the curse. Still sort of 
random, but with aiming involved.
