I heart Evan for posting

OKAY! I'm going to continue being the only one to discuss Harry Potter on your blog, but I have more to say.

About the Arch, PERSONALLY, i don't think it will be brought up again, atleast not significantly. I think the voices that Harry and Luna heard were almost metaphorical or something. Rowling's way of telling Harry and Luna and us that even though someone dies they're not gone forever, they're still with you in your head, in your heart and mind, you can still "hear" them, etc.

I think that was the lesson we were supposed to get from the mysterious curtain. Although I think she used it and the voices to kind of make it creepy and magical and mysterious i think she still uses all of these things to give some kind of greater meaning, like what i suggested above.

Eh, I'd still like some more closure... at least someone from the Ministry of Magic explaining to Harry that they don't really know what the arch is or how it works, only that those who cross through never come back. And is it possible that Voldemort turned the Gryffindor sword into a horcrux back in the day? I don't remember what the books said. ack!
