" Hermione retorted

"Harry, this isn't a game, this isn't practice! This is the real thing, and Dumbledore left you very clear instructions: Find and destroy the Horcruxes! That symbol doesn't mean anything, forget the Deathly Hallows, we can't afford to get sidetracked \a150\a150"
Harry was barely listening to her. He was turning the Snitch over and over in his hands, half expecting it to break open, to reveal the Resurrection Stone, to prove to Hermione that he was right, that the Deathly Hallows were real.
She appealed to Ron.
"You don't believe in this, do you?"
Harry looked up, Ron hesitated.
"I dunno\a133I mean\a133bits of it sort of fit together," said Ron awkwardly, "But when you look at the whole thing\a133" He took a deep breath. "I think we're supposed to get rid of Horcruxes, Harry. That's what Dumbledore told us to do. Maybe\a133maybe we should forget about this Hallows business."
"Thank you, Ron," said Hermione. "I'll take first watch."
And she strode past Harry and sat down in the tent entrance bringing the action to a fierce full stop.
But Harry hardly slept that night. The idea of the Deathly Hallows had taken possession of him, and he could not rest while agitating thoughts whirled through his mind: the wand, the stone, and the Cloak, if he could just possess them all\a133
\iI open at the close\i\a133But what was the close? Why couldn't he have the stone now? If only he had the stone, he could ask Dumbledore these questions in person\a133and Harry murmured words to the Snitch in the darkness, trying everything, even Parseltongue, but the golden ball would not open\a133
And the wand, the Elder Wand, where was that hidden? Where was Voldemort searching now? Harry wished his scar would burn and show him Voldemort's thoughts, because for the first time ever, he and Voldemort were united in wanting the very same thing\a133Hermione would not like that idea,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], of course\a133But then, she did not believe\a133.Xenophilius had been right, in a way\a133\iLimited, Narrow, Close-minded\i. The truth was that she was scared of the idea of the Deathly Hallows,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], especially of the Resurrection Stone\a133and Harry pressed his mouth again to the Snitch, kissing it, nearly swallowing it, but the cold medal did not yield\a133
It was nearly dawn when he remembered Luna, alone in a cell in Azkaban, surrounded by dementors, and he suddenly felt ashamed of himself. He had forgotten all about her in his feverish contemplation of the Hallows. If only they could rescue her, but dementors in those numbers would be virtually unassailable. Now he came to think about it, he had not tried casting a Patronus with the blackthorn wand\a133He must try that in the morning\a133
If only there was a way of getting a better wand\a133
And desire for the Elder Wand, the Deathstick, unbeatable, invincible, swallowed him once more\a133
They packed up the tent next morning and moved on through a dreary shower of rain. The downpour pursued them to the coast, where they pitched the tent that night, and persisted through the whole week, through sodden landscapes that Harry found bleak and depressing. He could think only of the Deathly Hallows. It was as though a flame had been lit inside him that nothing,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], not Hermione's flat disbelief nor Ron's persistent doubts, could extinguish. And yet the fiercer the longing for the Hallows burned inside him, the less joyful it made him. He blamed Ron and Hermione: Their determined indifference was as bad as the relentless rain for dampening his spirits, but neither could erode his certainty, which remained absolute. Harry's belief in and longing for the Hallows consumed him so much that he felt isolated from the other two and their obsession with the Horcruxes.
"Obsession?" said Hermione in a low fierce voice, when Harry was careless enough to use the word one evening, after Hermione had told him off for his lack of interest in locating more Horcruxes. "We're not the one with an obsession, Harry! We're the ones trying to do what Dumbledore wanted us to do!"
But he was impervious to the veiled criticism. Dumbledore had left the sign of the Hallows for Hermione to decipher, and he had also, Harry remained convinced of it, left the Resurrection Stone hidden in the golden Snitch. \iNeither can live while the other survives\a133master of Death\a133\iWhy didn't Ron and Hermione understand?
\i"'The last enemy shall be destroyed is death,'"\i Harry quoted calmly.
"I thought it was You-Know-Who we were supposed to be fighting?" Hermione retorted, and Harry gave up on her.
