A very important and crucial part in the story Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is Harry's mini-battle/discussion with Lord Voldemort at the end of the book. The reason it is such an important part of the plot is that it resolves the conflict. As said before, the conflict of the story is Voldemort's return, and in this scene, Voldemort's reign of tyranny ends. It shows how Voldemort's attitude and behavior changes when Harry acts like he did, cool, calm, and not scared at all. This leads to the theme of the story, which I believe is courage, due to the fact that Harry's courage is shown when he speaks to Voldemort as if he weren't the worst wizard of all time who murdered his parents and isn't afraid to die trying to stop him. The exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution are quite easy to see where they are. The exposition is when Harry decides to save Molly Weasley from Voldemort, revealing himself to the public and Voldemort that he is in fact, not dead (737). The rising action is started as Harry begins to have a little chat with Voldemort, all the way through to when Harry speaks about the Elder Wand's true owner. This then means that the climax is when Harry reveals that the reason the Elder Wand doesn't work properly with Voldemort is since Harry is the true owner (743), leading to the falling action. Voldemort then gets ticked off, and sends a Killing Curse towards Harry, but Harry uses "Expelliarmus," which as you can guess, expels the arm the target is in possession of. The wand then rebounds the curse at Voldemort, killing him once and for all, and all that follows is the resolution of the plot (744). One thing that did leave me questioning was what happened to Voldemort after he died? What did he feel at the moment and did he go the same thing that Harry went through when he was "dead?"
