(Again I'm on my phone. It seems this is the quickest way I can read the chapters but this will be my final phone chapter - hurrah!)

Can Hermione actually walk without being angry? I'm confused. So she sacrificed her innocence (the wand) so she could walk and now she needs to be angry all the time and use that anger to walk but what happens when she's not angry? Or is the dark magic that she messed with going to cloud her judgement and keep her this way for the rest of her time?

I really thought you were saying that she had to kill someone (an innocent) in order to get the ability to walk again. That's what I got from the reading but I've never been good at deciphering passages like that.

That's original work of yours, right?

Well. I don't know how Hermione is going to survive. It looks grim for her. I know she wants to say Rose and Octavia and she thinks this is the best way but it's obviously not. She's a good person. I understand that she would to anything to protect her family, what parent wouldn't? It's really one of those moments or one of those questions that people ask, 'What would you do?'

I always see those shows and it's like, 'What would you do if your brother murdered someone? Do you go to the police or do you help him cover his tracks?' There's really no win in the situation.

It's actually interesting to compare Ron and Hermione in this moment because they're both going through a dark phase. Ron will do whatever it takes to figure out where Rose and Octavia are, I'm sure he would do a lot worse than what he did to that guy to find out information. It's like we're seeing a different side of them both and I can only imagine Hermione's reaction when Ron tells her. She's going to blow up and it's going to crush him even more.

Lady T really does remind me of Voldemort. The way they both thirst for power, the way they want to remain alive and use these foolish people around them to keep in power. They'd rather be feared than liked, right? Fear goes a long way but I feel like again, Lady T is making similar mistakes like he did.

And I'm sorry but I still don't trust Arabella. Yes, she helped Percy escape but there's something about her I just don't trust. Am I being crazy? Am I reading too much into her character and how swiftly she had deflected the security? Seriously, let me know because I'd like to finally decide if I should or should not trust her.

It was actually nice to see Percy take on a leadership role. I feel like we're finally seeing him again and not the shell of the person he has been. He also seems to be taking charge in a part where Harry really can't do anything for right now. Politically Harry does need to create a movement but right now he's on the field, he's doing the dirty work and having Percy do the technical things and round up people to back him would essentially be a good thing. But will he be able to...because you and I both know Arabella is evil...right? (Seriously, tell me.)

Author's Response: Hermione's situation gets explained a little more clearly in the next chapter, but the gist of it is that she has to stay angry in order to suppress the pain that she feels since using the dark spell to restore the feeling and movement in her legs, aka "the dragon." She is a good person, one who made a really questionable choice, and this is going to be very hard for her. Her motivations might have been noble, but dark magic always exacts a price on those who use it. In this case, the price is quite awful.

I hadn't really thought of it that way, but there are definitely some parallels between the choices that Hermione is making and the ones that Ron is making. Actually, forget I said that! I planned this all along. Yeah, that's the ticket! It was all planned out in advance...

There are similarities between Lady Tenabra and Voldemort, but also some important differences. Unlike Tom Riddle, she is in no way ideologically motivated. I think it's pretty obvious by now that she's playing all of her followers in the Blood Order for fools. All she cares about is power.

You're not meant to trust Arabela, silly! If I meant for you to trust her, I would have had her do something really nice or noble by now and, you know, stop acting so shady. But is she really Lady Tenabra? I'll never tell! (Until I do...)

Percy is doing his best. He's not really comfortable thinking of himself as a leader, but he's willing to try.

I promise that it won't be too much longer before you find out the truth about Arabela. Chapter 32, if all goes as planned.

Be sure to plug your phone in and give it the night off! It has my gratitude. And thank you so much for reading and reviewing!
