JK Rowling finally talks about the fate of Hedwig
JK Rowling finally has given us more information on the fate of Hedwig, and here it is:
“I had to work quite hard in finding a very particular way for that [Snitch] to be caught because I knew I was going to do that later; initially, as my British editor can confirm, I had Hedwig catch that [Snitch]. She wanted that changed, and I thought, ‘Oh, God, back to the drawing board.’
Actually that’s what sealed Hedwig’s fate, because the plan was for Hedwig to open the [Snitch], because she touched it first, but, by making it Harry, then it was time to kill her earlier. I think she was going to die anyway, eventually.”
