Harry confronts death in [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Godric's Hollow|Godric's Hollow]], but rather than witnessing it hot and fresh as when [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Albus Dumbledore|Dumbledore]], [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Cedric Diggory|Cedric Diggory]], and [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Sirius Black|Sirius Black]] were killed, he now sees only its cold, decayed aftermath, dimming his hope to ever be reunited with his mother and father. Harry's own recollections of that tragic night are faint, limited to a green flash and his mother's screams. While inside Voldemort's memories, he was able to see the entire horrendous event as it unfolded through Voldemort's eyes. Not only does this reopen old wounds, it creates new ones that only intensify his grief and despair. But as painful as those memories are, they also provide him a clearer picture regarding what actually happened on that cold, long-ago night, tying him closer to his parents and clarifying his role in vanquishing the Dark Lord.

Visiting his parents' graves, and seeing the destroyed cottage in which he once lived, deeply disturbs Harry, driving home the reality that the tragic events sixteen years before were real. Until now, these were merely sad stories thattold others toldto Harry, but seeing the graves and the house in person is emotionally wrenching, and it serves to fully integrate him into past events. And while Harry has always harbored a slim hope that magic would somehow reunite him with his long-dead parents, seeing their forlorn, final resting place forces him to confront death's finality and accept that the dead can only live on in this world through others' memories. Harry is comforted and uplifted, however, by the kind messages visitors have left at the Potter's residence over the years.

Harry's difficult childhood has resulted in his never fully trusting or relying on others, and he usually prefers to confront most situations alone. He has made great strides in overcoming this trait, however, learning to accept friends' and mentors' support and guidance, though some, like [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Ron Weasley|Ron]] and Dumbledore, have also failed him. He takes a great leap of faith here when he willingly follows the mysterious elderly woman, believing she is Bathilda Bagshot and trusting that she can help. This time Harry's reasoning proves faulty. Even the decision to go to Godric's Hollow was driven more by a desire to see his birthplace, visit James and Lily's graves, and resolve his conflicted feelings about Dumbledore, rather than to uncover clues relating to their mission; the error nearly costs Harry and Hermione their lives. It is uncertain if Harry can ever show that much faith in the unknown again. It is also a little surprising that Hermione, who is usually far more cautious and suspicious than either Ron or Harry, not only suggested going to Godric's Hollow, but so willingly followed the old woman, despite her odd behavior. Despite her underlying reluctance, Hermione may have acquiesced to Harry's suggestion to finally visit Gordric's Hollow and also Bathilda's house simply because she was unsure where nextthey toshould next go. Her usual logic and innate caution may have been affected by her despair over Ron's departure.
