Olympe Maxime Arrives at Hogwarts for the Funeral

PAGES: 634-634

Harry watches from a window as a giant, powder-blue carriage, pulled by a dozen winged palominos, arrives at the edge of the Forbidden Forest. Olympe Maxime, the headmistress of Beauxbatons, descends from the carriage and is warmly embraced by Hagrid. Meanwhile, a delegation from the Ministry of Magic, including the Minister, Rufus Scrimgeour, is housed at Hogwarts for the funeral, but Harry avoids them, knowing they will want to question him about Dumbledore's final moments.
