While the story never states whether the other soul seen in what we are calling the Waystation is Voldemort's principal soul or the shard that was within Harry, evidence that it was Voldemort's soul, as stated by the author, will be seen in the next chapter. We will find that Voldemort was knocked out by the rebounding Killing Curse he cast on Harry; as it thrust Harry's spirit into the void that became King's Cross station, Voldemort's diminished soul, tethered to Harry's by thetheir shared blood bond they shared, was dragged along.

At last, [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Goblet of Fire/Chapter 36|the victorious look in Dumbledore's eye]] when he heard that Voldemort had used Harry's blood to create his new body is explained: through thetheir conversation in this chapterhere, it is clear that Dumbledore realized that this would helpaid Harry more than it would help Voldemort. As Harry had been protected by [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Lily Potter|his mother]]'s blood, so now would he be shielded by his own blood, now coursing through Voldemort's veins. Dumbledore also knew, though Voldemort did not, that by using Harry's blood to re-animate himself, Voldemort had ensured that Harry's death would be impossible as long as this incarnation of Voldemort lived. Further, because he willingly sacrificed himself, Harry is using the same magic to protect his friends, shielding them from Voldemort's and Death Eaters' curses, just as Lily had protected Harry by sacrificing herself.

Regarding Harry's statement that Snape was meant to be the Elder Wand's master, Dumbledore admits that that had notfailed worked out as planned. Harry sees this, butthough we do not as yet;. inIn the next chapter, it will be learned that the Elder Wand never allied itself with Snape, and Snape's death, in turn, hasnever not givengave Voldemort control over it. And though Harry confirmed this thought with [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Ollivander|Mr. Ollivander]], he is still at least a little unsure ofabout himselfit. Dumbledore may have made the same misstep as Voldemort: despite the still-living (until Voldemort murdered them) [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Gregorovitch|Gregorovitch]] and [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Gellert Grindelwald|Grindelwald]] as evidence, Voldemort mistakenly believed that the Elder Wand would only fully align itself withto the wizard who killskilled its previous Master, rather than thea wizard who forcibly removes the wand from its previous owner's possession. Ollivander, however, was quite emphatic that murder is unnecessary, though with the Elder Wand, that trail does seem to have followed itthe Elder Wand. As the wand's allegiance was forcibly removedwrenched from Dumbledore's possession by Draco Malfoy, even though Dumbledore retained physical custody of it, Harry believestheorized that it has allied itself with Draco. It is uncertain whether Dumbledore shares this belief, but his admission that Snape does not currently mastercommand the Elder Wand would(nor leaddid ushe toever command it) believesuggests that Snape's death has given him a little extra understanding. The question remains whether the Elder Wand had aligned itself with Harry once it became "awaresensed" (if a wand can be said to be aware) that Harry disarmed Draco, and was, in fact, using Draco's own wand, the same one which Draco had disarmedused to disarm Dumbledore.

Not only did Dumbledore's plan for Snape to obtain the Elder Wand ultimately fail, but it seems rather risky from the start. As mentioned above, Dumbledore should have known that capturing the wand from its owner resultedcould result in it switchingtransferring its allegiance, as he certainly fully controlled the Elder Wand, as Grindelwald had had before him, when both Gregorovitch and Grindelwald were still alive – a point that Voldemort missed, not once but twice. Even though Voldemort came to physically possess the wand, he never commanded it. As it was known that Snape killed Dumbledore, there was a high probability that Voldemort would eventually deduce (wrongly) that Snape was the Elder Wand's master, and he would therefore target and kill Snape to transfer its ownership to himhimself. That is exactly what happened, althoughthough, fortunately, and unknown to Voldemort, Snape was never commanded the Elder Wand's master. As Dumbledore had a pre-arranged plan with Snape to kill him, it may be that he intended for Snape alone to witness his death, thus forcibly claiming, and secretly wielding the Elder Wand. Likewise, just as Dumbledore never foresaw that Draco Malfoy would disarm him and unknowingly control thewin wand's allegiance (though heDraco did notnever physically possesspossessed it), heDumbledore may also have failed to anticipate that circumstances would force Snape to return to Voldemort when he did, placing him in a dangerously close proximity to the Dark Lord.

If Dumbledore's scheme had worked as he intended, the story's outcome would depend on whether the Elder Wand remained entombed with Dumbledore, or if Snape had physically obtained it after killing Dumbledore. Entombed with Dumbledore, the wand would have remained Snape's, even after Voldemort retrieved it and carried it; Snape's death would not have aligned the wand with Voldemort, as Voldemort would not have forcefully removed the wand from its previous owner, Snape. (While this appears parallel to Harry's case, as Harry defeated Malfoy when Malfoy was not carrying the wand, there is one vital difference: the Elder Wand, in Voldemort's hands, then faced the wand that had wrenched it from Dumbledore's hand, in the hand of the one who had seized it from Malfoy's hand. Tenuous a connection as that seems, apparently that was enough for the Elder Wand to switch alliance. To get the same effect, Voldemort would have to claim the Elder Wand from Dumbledore's tomb while wielding Snape's wand.) However, equally the wand would not have aligned itself with Harry, as Harry would likely never have had the opportunity to wrest it from Snape. If Snape had retained the wand, Voldemort would have had one additional step to retrieve it, and it is possible that Snape would have simply given the wand to Voldemort. In that case, again as the wand was not wrested from Snape, it would remain his, and thus somewhat ineffectual in Voldemort's hands. Only if Snape had resisted turning over the wand, and Voldemort had seized it by force, would the wand owe allegiance to Voldemort, and in that case, Harry likely would have had a much more painful time of things.

It has also been suggested that Dumbledore's plan was considerably simpler: he meant to die as the Elder Wand's final master, with the wand's allegiance transferring to no one upon his death. If his plan had worked, Snape would have killed Dumbledore on Dumbledore's orders, while Dumbledore was still the Elder Wand's master, and which the Wand would not have recognized as a defeat. The Elder Wand would never afterward have had an allegiance to any living wizard, and, as a result, its bloody and dangerous cycle would have been endedextinguished forever. This would imply that Dumbledore was fully aware of the distinction between death and defeat, from the Wand's point -of -view, and his plan failed only in that he never expected Draco to disarm him. While this is by far the simplest scenario for Dumbledore's plan, it must be mentioned that it is not explicitly described anywhere in these terms, either in the books or in the author's interviews since publication. And though it is unknown if this was ever Dumbledore's intention, it will become Harry's. After Harry discoversdiscovering that he is the Elder Wand's true master, and following Voldemort's defeat, heHarry decides neveragainst toever use theusing Elder Wand, and intends to return it to Dumbledore's tomb with the hope that its power will be forever extinguishedterminated when he eventually dies.

It should also be noted that if Draco had killed Dumbledore as he had been under ordersordered to do (in ''Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince''), then Voldemort would likely have murdered Draco in an attempt to win the wand, though, unknown to anyone, Draco had since lost its allegiance to Harry when Harry disarmed him at Malfoy Manor. However, if Draco had remained the Wand's master, murder alone wouldmay have been insufficient to transfer its power to Voldemort had he killed Draco; the Wand's allegiance would instead have remained with Draco, its power extinguished upon his death.

It is worth mentioning, perhaps, that in discussing the interaction between the two wands, Dumbledore also specifically refers to the wand that Voldemort was carrying during the earlier attack on Harry as, "Malfoy's poor stick". While we know, having been present through the author's eyes atfrom the meeting in [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Deathly Hallows/Chapter 1|Chapter 1]], that Voldemort was carrying [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Lucius Malfoy|Lucius Malfoy]]'s wand, Harry does not know it;this. inIn fact, later, Harry's actions at [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Malfoy Manor|Malfoy Manor]] [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Deathly Hallows/Chapter 23|in this book]] would indicate that he believed Lucius still had his own wand. While there are several other points that would be known only to Dumbledore in this chapter, regarding his own family life and his friendship with Grindelwald, there is no clear path by which knowledge of Malfoy's wand could have reached Dumbledore, except possibly through posthumous conversations between [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Severus Snape|Snape]] talking withand Dumbledore's living portrait. This one point does create some speculation about death and afterlife, as perhaps it is meant to.
