HE IS HERE. THE ONE WHO WILL DESTROY THE VERY STARS IN HEAVEN.
I’ve been wondering about this. Voldemort knows this prophecy, and I expect he realises it’s not about him. So, how can he expect to be able to kill Harry, in a self-consistent universe?
Perhaps Harry’s reading of that plan is all wrong.
Actually, I’m no longer that sure about this. Does anyone have a source for prophecies being unavoidable? They certainly seem to have a knack of getting themselves fulfilled (see October 31st) but are they literally unbreakable?
If Quirrell thinks that he can prevent a prophecy from coming true, he’s committed this time around to do it properly and not to try to creatively fulfil it. He doesn’t appear to think this is futile.
