Talk:Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Major Events/Pettigrew's Death

I disagree with the analysis section regarding Dumbledore's look of triumph in GoF. The article suggests that Dumbledore was triumphant because Wormtail gained a silver hand.

However, a much more likely theory (which I think is hinted at in Deathly Hallows) is that Dumbledore realized Voldemort taking Harry's blood meant that they were bound together "closer than any two other wizards in history". It was this sharing of blood that enabled Harry's return from the dead, and I believe Dumbledore at least partially realized this the night of the graveyard duel.

 * Well, that theory is mentioned elsewhere, but as you point out it is not germane here. Simplest course of action is to simply remove the misleading clause. Chazz (talk) 02:59, 7 September 2014 (UTC)
