Var Severus Snape gjort en Death Eater före eller efter att han berättade Voldemort om profetian?

13

Baserat på diskussion i kommentarer om detta svar var Severus Snape en Death Eater (riktig med Dark Mark) innan han hörde Sybil ge profetian till Dumbledore och vidarebefordrade den till Voldemort? Eller var han gjord en DE efter det?

Endast Canon-källor (böcker / intervjuer / Pottermore)

När jag tolka kanon var Snape en Death Eater i trohet med Voldemort vid den tidpunkt som han hörde, och sedan berättade Voldemort om profetian. Dumbledore verkar verkligen innebära detta i Half-Blood Prince :

‘Professor Snape made a terrible mistake. He was still in Lord Voldemort’s employ on the night he heard the first half of Professor Trelawney’s prophecy. Naturally, he hastened to tell his master what he had heard, for it concerned his master most deeply.’

Albus Dumbledore - Half-Blood Prince - page 512 - Bloomsbury - chapter 25, The Seer Overheard

Att Dumbledore säger " fortfarande i Lord Voldemorts anställning" föreslår för mig att Snape närmade sig slutet av hans dagar som Death Eater, eftersom det var Voldemorts tolkning av profetian - och Voldemorts slutgiltiga vägran för att undvika Lily liv - som orsakade Snape att vända mot Voldemort och bli en dubbel agent för Dumbledore. Jag tror att tidpunkten för dessa händelser verifierar att Snape verkligen var en bona fide Death Eater när han överhögde profetian.

Severus Snape var redan en Death Eater.

Han närmade sig Dumbledore efter att ha redan berättat Voldemort om profetian.

“What request could a Death Eater make of me?”

“The — the prophecy . . . the prediction . . . Trelawney . . .”

“Ah, yes,” said Dumbledore. “How much did you relay to Lord Voldemort?”

“Everything — everything I heard!” said Snape. “That is why — it is for that reason — he thinks it means Lily Evans!”

“The prophecy did not refer to a woman,” said Dumbledore. “It spoke of a boy born at the end of July —”

“You know what I mean! He thinks it means her son, he is going to hunt her down — kill them all —”

“If she means so much to you,” said Dumbledore, “surely Lord Voldemort will spare her? Could you not ask for mercy for the mother, in exchange for the son?”

“I have — I have asked him —”

“You disgust me,” said Dumbledore, and Harry had never heard so much contempt in his voice. Snape seemed to shrink a little. “You do not care, then, about the deaths of her husband and child? They can die, as long as you have what you want?”

“Hide them all, then,” he croaked. “Keep her — them — safe. Please.”

“And what will you give me in return, Severus?”

“In — in return?” Snape gaped at Dumbledore, and Harry expected him to protest, but after a long moment he said, “Anything.”

Här ser vi Snapes start som dubbelagent.

Tidigt ser vi Lily säga

You and your precious little Death Eater friends — you see, you don’t even deny it! You don’t even deny that’s what you’re all aiming to be! You can’t wait to join You-Know-Who, can you?
