Albus is a dumbass. Croaker, an unspeakable and highly trained professional and expert, CONFIRMED Hadrian's word, and Hadrian swore on his MAGIC that he was telling the truth.

That was amazing!

I'm really happy that South Africa was mentioned. I'm from there and it isn't mentioned often in fanfictions, though I guess the same can be said for other countries too.

Also, the Task was really nice. Harry did very well! I like the changes, it's nice

Dumbledore’s whole life since hearing the prophecy has been dedicated to manipulating people and things to get the resolution he wants — which is the death of Harry Potter and the redemption of Tom Riddle and any remaining DEs.

Since Harry has figured out Dumbo’s game and spilled it all to Riddle, the mirrors should have recorded everything said in the graveyard. Even if Harry is correct, Albus is surely busy reworking those plans to see what he can make of them. I think Harry and Daphne are not yet safe from his plots.

From the preview, I’m guessing … Ginny? She would be one to name her child after Dumbledore, right? Alas (for Ginny or whoever), naming Harry’s child after Dumbo is hardly a selling point for Harry. This should be interesting.

This seems like one time Harry really should not have to compete. Crouch’s entry was identified by Dumbledore as having been ripped from an assignment, and Dumbledore’s paper was empty — no name even written on it.

Harry better have Dobby keep an eye on Bagman. Given his gambling debts, he’s a prime suspect, should any dragon eggs go missing.

While I thought Daphne’s form might turn out to be a snake of some sort, I also guessed a large cat, such as a tiger or leopard.

Interesting history of the four founders. It seems they had their share of family heartbreaks, as well. It will be interesting to see how Slytherin house and its alumni react to the truth about Salazar Slytherin. Of course, non-Slytherins will surely have trouble accepting the truth.

Draco certainly is a greedy, nasty little piece of work. I hope Harry is careful of him.

As for Dumbledore, does he not know that Harry has been “de-Horcruxed”? Or is he STILL hell-bent on Harry dying because HE wants that to be Harry’s fate? I consider your Albus to be rather EVIL and do not understand how Remus can be so foolish as to trust him. I wonder if he will ever come to see the truth.

Too bad Dumbledore can’t receive a visit from the Messenger in kb0’s “Odds and Ends” chapter 13 — ‘Judgement Day.’ As a sort of partial judgment, the Messenger transfers some of “the evil that Albus has allowed to fall upon Harry” to Albus himself, for him to deal with (Harry’s scar and Horcrux). It would be nice, wouldn’t it? Oh, well …

I think I must have missed the whole thing about him getting on the quidditch team.

I think you overestimate how large the front cover of a standard newspaper is

How are you an “amateur writer”? I started writing nearly two years ago, and my stories aren’t anywhere near this level! This is one of my favourite story, I’m reading it for the fifth time or so.

Im not one for comments but this is one of the best story’s I’ve read on here good job

I feel that Umbitch got off too easy, kidding, her punishment from Harry was dramatic irony at its best.

Kudos for being the writer of the first fanfic to have Dumbles ask permission for the hostages ahead of time. However, I did notice that he threw the TWT commission under the bus by saying taking hostages was their idea and requirement.

I've rather liked seeing Fleur paired up with Cedric, the few times it's happened in fanfics but so far, she's gotten together with Bill after the TWT. Hopefully Bill will still get married in book 6, I assume he works at Harry's dragon reserve.

I was going to suggest a harpy but I think she'll be a tiger or other big cat.

We know they've worked together in the background, Harry and the Weasley twins, to prank the staff.
