Yess...He Dumbledore meant Snape to become the owner of The Elder Wand...But that was the flaw in his plan. Bcoz as Snape was not the omce who defeated him, he didnt become the owner of the wand. That part is understood
I too was under the impression that when DD said the boy must die...he meant it..But U cant really say right..as I said he never confided his entire plan to anyone...as he told Snape "I dont want to put all my secrets in one bastket, especially the one which is dangling in Lord Voldemort's hands"😆😉
He had made a guess that as Harry will be "ready" when the right time presents itself, he may escape the fate thrust upon him by Voldemort. A Fate which Dumbledore CANNOT change. But which Harry's DECISION can change
But I am confused abt what u said no one but Voldemort can kill Harry...I thought that ANYONE but Voldemort can kill Harry....😕 as It was Voldemort who tried to kill Harry...as it was he who had taken Harry's blood which is now rnning in his veins, Harry didnt die..If someone else had killed Harry, he would have dies and so wud the soul of Voldy inside hm (Correct me if I am wrong)
as for the Prophecy...If Voldemort hadnt chosen Harry , maybe nothing wud have happened..He wudnt have had a rival..he feared if it may be true that why he decided to make sure there wont be a chance. He didnt wanna take any chances and chose Harry as his enemy. He MADE the Prophecy true...
n Harry didnt gain he resurrection stone by accident..he gained only the elder wand by accident(as contrary to DD's Plan) DD had left the resurrection stone as he knew he wud need it at the end he wud need his lost loved ones for support whle he took the brave brave decision between life and death of the world...which is why DD had written "I open at the close" in the snitch.
omg..i wrote too much....😆
I think it's the right answer. DD told it's "essential" because I think he had a hope that if Voldemort tries to kill Harry, Harry has a chance to survive. At King Cross DD said Harry that he was not sure that Harry will survive or not, but he thought he might survive. So may be that's why he said that it's essential that Voldemort kill Harry, so that Harry takes it as his fate and at last may be it'll give him a chance to survive. We must remember that DD used to love Harry a lot.
