The controversy over who is the true son of prophecy between Harry Potter and Nave Longbottom has always been the most enthusiastic discussion of Ha fans, and today, let's take a closer look at which of these two children is most likely to be the son of prophecy
The so-called son of prophecy must meet several conditions:
1) Born into a family that defeated the Dark Lord three times;
2) Born at the end of the seventh month;
3) Possess energy that the Dark Lord does not understand;
4) The Dark Lord marks him as a fierce enemy
5) One must die at the hands of the other
According to the prophecy, the boy could be either Harry or Neville
First, he was born into a family that had defeated the Dark Lord three times: both the James Lilys and the Frank Alice couple, both affiliated with the Order of the Phoenix, had defeated Voldemort three times in the war against Voldemort, and from this point of view, the two children were no different
Second, born at the end of the seventh month: Harry and Neville were both born at the end of July, and both meet the criteria from the timeline
Then, have energy that the Dark Lord does not understand: What is the energy that the Dark Lord does not understand?
According to the book, Voldemort was the child born to his mother who used ecstasy to confuse his father, and from the beginning, Voldemort could not be the product of love, and after Voldemort was born, his father woke up and abandoned their mother and son, and the mother was depressed, leaving Voldemort only in the orphanage
Because Voldemort showed a talent for wizarding from an early age, coupled with his arrogant personality, he never had any friends in the orphanage
Even after being rescued by Dumbledore and going to Hogwarts, he did not make any real friends
Throughout, Voldemort never felt love, friendship, or affection
So, for Voldemort, the last energy he could comprehend was the power of love
Unlike Voldemort, both Harry and Neville grew up in an environment of love
For Harry, even though his parents died and he grew up in Aunt Petunia's house, he still had the ancient protective spell inspired by his mother Lily's love, and even if the person who loved him had passed away, this love and protection would never disappear
When Harry entered Hogwarts, he felt the love of friendship from Ron and Hermione, the love of affection in Ron's parents, and the love of elders in Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, Hagrid and others
So, for Harry, love was his natural protective layer
And for Neville, compared to Harry, although he seemed a little insignificant, a little small
But under the care of his grandmother, he was also able to grow up healthy and happy
Whether it was Harry or Neville, they all carried the love of others
Meanwhile, harry and Neville's parents were accidentally killed in a battle against Voldemort
Therefore, the two of them naturally fought Voldemort out of love, and this was their most powerful weapon against Voldemort
Next, the Dark Lord labeled him a formidable enemy: for this condition, this gave Voldemort absolute autonomy
In fact, in the face of Harry and Neville, Voldemort had marked them
For Harry's mark is well known, the lightning mark
The mark on Neville may be somewhat obscure, ignored by many fans
In fact, Voldemort had marked Neville, and he had also found Neville and pointed his wand at Neville
Suddenly, Neville immediately stiffened and could not move
Voldemort put the Sorting Hat on Neville's head and pressed it down hard
Ignoring the protests of the Hogwarts rebels, he gently waved his wand and set the Sorting Hat on fire
So, both Harry and Neville had been marked as death by the Dark Lord
In the end, one must die at the hands of the other: Harry and Neville had made the same contribution to this
In the final battle against Voldemort, Harry, as the bearer of voldemort's soul fragment, chose to die and keep Voldemort alive
Later, Harry was reborn, got the Elder Wand, and fought against Voldemort until he defeated him
Harry had to kill Voldemort, or Voldemort had to kill Harry
Neville also survived the battle and killed Nagini, the great serpent carrying another fragment of Voldemort's soul
Similarly, Neville had to kill Nagini (i.e. Voldemort), or Nadimi had to kill Neville
That said, Trelawney's prophecy may not have been directed at Either Harry or Neville at first
There is such a person in the prophecy, it is possible that anyone, and it may even be that these two boys are the children of the prophecy
But in any case, when the prophecy appeared, Harry and Neville's fate was destined to be linked to Voldemort
