| | Rowling: "In DH you’ll see how close you can get to the dead" Accio Quote has uncovered an old interview from 2000 with J.K.Rowling with gives fandom new canon in regards to Deathly Hallows. Quote:
One of her fundamentals is that you can't reverse death: "That's a given. Without it the plot would fall apart, though in Book Seven you'll see just how close you can get to the dead. You can be brought back from being petrified and from injuries that in the real world are mortal, depending on the degree of skill that a particular wizard possesses. You can't go to any wizard and say 'Will you cure my terminally ill relative?' It's a mirror image of the real world in that sense."
Quote:
In Philosopher's Stone I had a game of chess between Harry and Ron which Ron won by using a particularly violent bishop. My editor made me take it out. He didn't want me to have a bad bishop. Well, he's back, I have a different editor now." [Hermione "sat down to watch their chess match, which culminated in an exciting checkmate of Ron's, involving a couple of recklessly brave pawns and a very violent bishop." (GoF23)]

I wonder what she means by that *eyes her*

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |

I think she migth be talking about the Veil here. It seems that I remember hearing that we will find out more about it in the final book. Can't wait! (But then I don't want it all to end either!)

I just loved the interview.
I'm not a chess fan, though my father used to spend hour with my grandfather, but I love wizard's chess, the moving pieces are so much fun!
