Alla:
Just a small clarification, although I cannot speak for Lizzyben of
course. I believe that particular phrase of her was in regard of
Dumbledore possibly immobilizing Sirius during the battle, NOT in
regard to him being at GP. Although I totally think that he was in
metaphorical prison at GP, I certainly do not believe that he could
be killed there.
And well, this interpretation in regard to the battle seems quite
canon based to me.
I still do not want to believe it and I doubt that it was JKR's
intention and I do not like to read against author's intent, however
as I said my basic objection against it is now in my mind completely
gone. I do not think Dumbledore values ANY life more than his goals,
therefore as long as I can see canon basis for it, I will accept the
interpretation. I think Lizzyben explained the battle part well.
JMO,
Alla
