I have conjured this patronus for a grave yet necessary announcemt. The following members of the most tremendous and thunderous Harry Potter Blog on the planet, Aurors and Marauders, have been expelled due to prolonged absence of Magical Activity:

Elladora

Cassandra

Devlin the Innovator

An empty cauldron tends to rust, but the wand can always be swished again. Hence, the above can regain their sorcerer status by filling the form again.

The Phoenix Of The Fire

The greatest warlock of all time, order of Merlin, first class, grand sorc, chf. Warlock, supreme mugwump, international confed. of wizards, the wizard with the brain which is unsurpassed and unparallel to any other in the world, Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore has left the magical world in turmoil. With him perishes the brittle balance between good and the dark side, which only subsist, due to his existence. Now, no one can impede Lord Voldemort from taking over the ministry. No one can even stop him from the atrocities he would do on the muggles. So, will the wizarding community ever be able to stand up to greatest treat to the wizarding world. Even if some one summons up the courage to do so the dark lord would crush him. Then where is the ray of hope?

Many of my fellow aurors/marauders have brewed spectacular and flawless potion regarding Dumbledore and his intimate connection with horcruxes but I do not think so. Nevertheless

During his vast and magical life Dumbledore had worked diligently against Voldemort and this path Dumbledore laid the foundation of The Order Of The Phoenix, which has been working against Voldemort and his death-eaters. Is that all????

In the second book of this illustrious series we leant about Dumbledore’s pet, Fawkes the Phoenix. A flamboyant bird with stupendous magical powers which helped Harry to conquer the heir of slytherin and his monster, basilisk. After that occurrence many questions arouse, how did the bird know that basilisk could kill just by its sight? How did the bird know the sight of the chamber of secrets? How did the bird know that Harry could conjure the sword of Griffindor from the sorting? How did it know there was the sword it the sorting hat in the first place? And finally, How did it know that if the diary is destroyed then tom would also perish???

These questions have not been answered by JKR in any of her next installments of the series. Then in the fourth book we gain the knowledge of the core of Harry and Voldemort’s wands, which was of phoenix tail feather. No one can say this was by co-incidence. In the fifth book again Fawkes comes to spoil the party of Voldemort and engulfs the killing curse that was ripping through the air towards Dumbledore.

In the 6th book, the Half-Blood Prince we read the last part of the chapter ‘The Lighting Struck Tower’ with half of our mind griped by the mesmerizing book and the other plotting the plan of Dumbledore’s escape from five death eaters. Alas! My friends when Snape’s killing curse hits old D square on it’s chest our hearts releases a agonizing gasp and old D falls to the ground with a thug. But I do not understand why did old D’s favorite pet did not come to his rescue or did he? We all are well aware with the fact that unforgivable curse are to be meant from the soul. So Snape might have not meant it and to cover up for that old D toppled over barricade and fell before Fawkes caught him.

Even according to this theory the origin of Fawkes is still not clear. How can a bird though very powerful can think and reason just like man with great logical and analytical ability? To unearth an answer to this question I referred many mythological beliefs just like JKR did to get inspiration for the HP series and I have deduced a speculation, which will blow away the mist surrounding Fawkes.

Many of us will be aware that there are 4 elementals (earth, fire, wind and water) in this world whose power were greater than humans, wizards and equivalent to gods. The animal of their choice represented each elemental, which would survey the harmony of the world in their absence.

Fire knowledge about magic and muggle alike was supreme and choose a phoenix to be his representative. This might be the reason of the presence of a single phoenix in the world and it’s resourceful knowledge.

From this we can be assured that Voldemort will indeed face great resistance and if he underestimates the power Fawkes, it be a vital mistake due to which he would perish just like his 16 year old form did in the chamber of secrets.
