Hey there I’m back with the 3rd installment of the series and the 2nd Deathly Hallow of my post the Triangle. Or what’s more commonly known as Harry’s invisibility cloak which is a Potter Heirloom.
The Cloak given to the 3rd Brother Ignotus Peverell by Death represents the acceptance of death “as an old friend”. It represents a person unafraid of death because he’s lived a long full life so he accepts his death and moves on.
I feel this Deathly Hallow is best represented by Albus Dumbledore. Now I’m sure many would disagree. Many people whose posts I’ve read believe Harry represents the Triangle rather than Albus. But here’s my reasoning.
Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore was a 120 year old successful Professor, Headmaster, Chief Warlock, Supreme Mugwump, Defender of Muggleborns and had his own Chocolate Frog Card.. I could go on but his achievements far outnumber my capacity to list them.
He lived a whole life. Yes he was haunted by his mistakes. He lost his family and he had to defeat and imprison his own best friend maybe even lover. But he rose above it. While he held the Elder Wand, he never misused it.
He lived a whole full life. And when the time comes that he knows he’s about to die from The withering curse on The Gaunt ring he chooses to give up his own life to strengthen his spy’s position in the enemy camp. In fact he embraces death with the iconic lines: “Severus, please..” and he becomes immortal in that very moment. Greeting Death as an old friend and leaving the mortal plane going on to the “Next Great Adventure”.
This is my reasoning on why Invisibility Cloak, despite being Harry’s heirloom, is symbolical of The Venerated Headmaster.
Last up The Ring/Stone and The Boy with more Titles than Names. Ciao!
