    Harry Realizes It's Too Late to Stop Lord Voldemort from Getting the Elder Wand

    Pages 499-500
    Harry reveals to Ron and Hermione that it's too late to stop Lord Voldemort from retrieving the Elder Wand from Dumbledore's tomb. Although Ron urges them to go to Hogwarts and retrieve it, Harry explains that Dumbledore never intended for him to have the wand. Instead, Dumbledore wanted him to focus on destroying the Mystery - Lord Voldemort's Horcruxes. Harry's scar throbs with pain, and he falls to the ground, overwhelmed by the vision of Lord Voldemort at Hogwarts.
