As you walk about the spooky street of Diagon Alley, you may notice the Three Brothers standing amongst Death as one of the many floats displayed. This float does not obtain too much bright colour, yet this adds to the eerie feel it creates of doom and death.

The platform of the float is made to look as if it is a realistic, treacherous river so much so that the river even appears to be flowing at it’s rapid speed. To connect the rocky banks of the river is a bridge created from magic as told in the tale.

In the middle of the bridge is what caught your eyes at first. It is of course the Three Brothers attempting to pass with death in their way. Each brother has their chosen gift from Death in hand: Antioch, the Elder Wand; Cadmus, the Resurrection Stone and Ignotus with his humble Invisibility Cloak. These gifts glimmer as if made to stand out. Death, dressed in his dark cloak, is wearing a secretive smile on his evil face, cunningly hoping his gifts will soon lure the three brothers towards him.

If it is not clear already, the scene depicted from The Tale of the Three Brothers is where the brothers are receiving their gifts from death.
