    ... many others had had loved ones fall at the hands of the Dark Lord or his followers. What is Dumbledore playing at? Ginny scowled mentally. Harry rolled his eyes. He's Dumbledore, he's always playing at something. Ginny nodded slightly. How many people in this room have been affected by Voldemort? she asked rhetorically. In this war or the last one?
