(...) Yes, quite correct, that's a phoenix. I read all 4 books only a year ago, amazing how much I've already forgotten (its name)! I forgot (memory fading in old age (31 is old if you forget to sleep)), but isn't that the same phoenix that provided (...) (22 years ago, 20-Sep-02, to lugnet.general)

(...) No, they never mention where the feathers for Harry and Voldemort's wands come from. It's just Dumbledore's pet, like Harry has Hegwig and Ron has/had Scabbers. If that is revealed in the latter half of Goblet of Fire then I wouldn't know, (...) (22 years ago, 22-Sep-02, to lugnet.harrypotter)

(...) 'Tis true: "Exactly," said Dumbledore. "Harry's wand and Voldemorts wand share cores. Each of them contains a feather from the tail of the same phoenix. This phoenix, in fact," he added, and he pointed at the scarlet-and-gold bird, perching (...) (22 years ago, 22-Sep-02, to lugnet.harrypotter)

Crap, wish I hadn't read that. Ah well it doesn't reveal that much about the story. Oh well, my bad, ha ha. (...) (22 years ago, 22-Sep-02, to lugnet.harrypotter)

Not to be a wise-behind, but the text comes from the first book. It is also in the first movie. So if you hadn't read the first book or seen the first movie then it would have mattered about this info. There was nothing new revealed information (...) (22 years ago, 22-Sep-02, to lugnet.harrypotter)

(...) No, not entirely. Matt *did* warn of a spoiler in the subject header, but if you glance at the post on the web interface, it's hard to avoid reading it. The customary thing to do is to place the spoiler well into the post so you have fair (...) (22 years ago, 22-Sep-02, to lugnet.harrypotter)

(...) That text is from the Goblet of Fire; hence the "four years ago" part of it... They don't mention it in the first movie, either. In fact, I don't even think we see Fawkes in the first movie (or book). James (22 years ago, 22-Sep-02, to lugnet.harrypotter)

(...) Ah that's no biggie, like stated earlier, it really doesn't reveal much about the story. I knew it was a spoiler but I'm a sucker for that stuff. I'm at the point in the story where he is starting the second task/challenge. I'll probably be (...) (22 years ago, 23-Sep-02, to lugnet.harrypotter)

(...) ... (...) Er, no, *my* fault. In my jumbled mess of a memory, I thought that was revealed in the 2nd book, sorry. I should've realized that I might remember bits from the 3rd and 4th books and not remember the exact sequence of revelations. (...) (22 years ago, 23-Sep-02, to lugnet.harrypotter)
