Vi vet att vid kyrkogårdscenen i Goblet of Fire var Voldemorts sista 5 slutsatser (i omvänd ordning): Cedric, Muggle Caretaker, Bertha Jorkins, Lily Potter, James Potter.
James Potter föregår Lily under priori incantatem.
Men Dumbledore säger i kapitel 36:
"They will not work properly against each other," said Dumbledore. "If, however, the owners of the wands force the wands to do battle ... a very rare effect will take place. One of the wands will force the other to regurgitate spells it has performed - in reverse. The most recent first. . . and then those which preceded it. . . ."
Så varför kom Lily inte ut ur Voldemorts stav först?
På JKRs gamla webbplats det anges,
Interviewer : At the end of 'Goblet of Fire', in which order should Harry's parents have come out of the wand?
JKR : Lily first, then James. That’s how it appears in my original manuscript but we were under enormous pressure to edit it very fast and my American editor thought that was the wrong way around, and he is so good at catching small errors I changed it without thinking, then realised it had been right in the first place. We were all very sleep-deprived at the time.
Detta korrigerades i senare utgåvor (liksom lite ändrad text läggs till).
I min amerikanska version (ebook), säger det klart:
And now another head was emerging from the tip of Voldemort’s wand … and Harry knew when he saw it who it would be … he knew, as though he had expected it from the moment when Cedric had appeared from the wand … knew, because the woman appearing was the one he’d thought of more than any other tonight … The smoky shadow of a young woman with long hair fell to the ground as Bertha had done, straightened up, and looked at him … and Harry, his arms shaking madly now, looked back into the ghostly face of his mother.
‘Your father’s coming …’ she said quietly. ‘He wants to see you … it will be all right … hold on …’ And he came … first his head, then his body … tall and untidy-haired like Harry, the smoky, shadowy form of James Potter blossomed from the end of Voldemort’s wand, fell to the ground, and straightened like his wife.
Eftersom JKR goofed. Jag ska se om jag kan hitta exakt citat där hon medger att hon gjort det.
Det står på så sätt Accio Quote , men länken de ger är död.
