Very interresting. I am very saddened at the thought of Bill being deceased, and I hope that it is a mistaken impression. Perhaps a ruse and the idiot dark lord had made something else into a dog and saved Bill in case he needed an alternative to Harry that could break wards. I guess that I'll just have to wait for the continuation.
Excellent story on every level. It would actually make a great video game.
Thank you for writing.

Once again, praise from another respected author is always appreciated. It probably would make a pretty cool video game. Thanks again.~Jim

Very good Chapter. I never thought you would kill off Bill, if in fact you have. As always Hack is a fun character. I like DeSoto as well. Leaving Harry as the only cuse breaker will no doubt have some posibilities for painful educational experiences. Thanks. W.

Holy $h1t!!! You're really not holding back the punches, are you? Another death (Damn, man.), a Dark Lord (Nice foreshadowing with the nightmares.), and a Daemon (What the hell? Doesn't Harry ever get a break?). The last couple of chapters for this series are going to be action-packed and full of twists, aren't they?

Oh come on! Not Bill!? You know? sometimes it's kind of hard to continue to read your stories but I can't seems to stop myself. A sign of a master story teller.
I have this very small hope that things are not what it seems.

Thanks for the compliment. Saying that I managed to provoke emotions from you is probably the best praise a fan fic author can get.

Wow. That's about all I can say about this chapter. Anyway a good chapter to show where you are going with this story, but did you have to kill off Bill? I like Bill and he's one of few allies Harry has. Well I can't wait for the next update be it this story or one of the other two.

Nope, I don't believe it. I don't know what trick your playing, but I'm willing to bet that bill is still alive somewhere... At least I hope your not that cruel.

You killed Bill? You can't kill Bill! It takes a trained assassin to do that... Anyway Bill is immortal! And he's got a horcrux of his own stashed with Fleur for safekeeping. Oh, boy. Harry/Weasley just went strait to hell. Not only is Harry pissed and has lost his stabilizer but there is no way Mrs. Weasley is going to take Bill's death well. And given the already strained relations this could lead to a rather nasty break.
...
Well the party has reached a new low. It's now down to four with a possibility of a pile of masonry joining the team. Well at least the transportation issue has been solved so as long as Harry can outlive another Dark Lord they shouldn't have any problems continuing the mission. Even if he is forced to scrap the mission now, Harry shouldn't have any problems assembling a new team and starting from scratch. Especially since he has got a pretty much unlimited bankroll, a friend in the local head family, access to a completely sealed off area full of potential treasures (even if they can't get to the gold, there is still the necrodragon. Only problem would be dealing with the goblins and that's only a problem because the goblins will want to try to turn it into a problem. After all they are looking for profit here.
Hmmm...now that they can leave the city with impunity the loss of secrecy on the homefront could very well become a problem. Even if the bounty hunters/Voldemort/Death Eaters don't hear about it, Dumbledore is certainly going to send a retrival expedition. The only good thing is that he will have to keep it small and quiet since it will have to be a waiting missions since only Voldemort's forces could possibly access the cursed city. Damn. If secrecy really is compromised than Phoenix Expeditions will have a lot worse things to worry about than zombies, wannabe Dark Lords and rogue demons. If Dumbledore isn't really careful he could very well bring the whole war back to where Voldemort started.
Still it will be a lot of fun to see Harry deal with an unprepared and underinformed Order Member who is planning to boss him around. (Rubbs hand together in sadistic anticipation - will we finally get to see what Kwan did to that poor girl who propositioned him back on the reservation?)

Oh there might be a few more problems to be overcome... Thanks for the long and well thought out review. Bill having a horcrux?????

Nooooooooooo!!!!
Please please please tell me that there was some sort of trick involved??? Please tell me you didn't kill Bill??
Hurry and post more soon as my heart is filled with Harry's despaire and rage and I don't think it can handle that for too long.

i vote for bill not being dead, please?
i also think the letter to dumbledore was more teen-girl than teen-boy ranting. I think a boy would have said 'fuck you and the broom you rode in on' and left it at that. I was hoping Harry had learned enough not to show his cards (that he knows about the memory charms/love potions etc...) - well, you know this Harry better I suppose.
help from an all-knowing statue... :-( so far that is my least favorite plot device you have used - bleh
oh, last thing - little typo
"we wouldn’t be having this conversation would be"

Thanks for the correction. Sorry you didn't care for De Soto. Harry kind of tipped his hand in his piss off Weasleys and Granger letter back when he left England.

I am a Christian and a pastor but if you've done in Bill I must consider hurting you.
Seriously nice twist. Although I suspect all is not what it seems. Perhaps Thundercloud had some important information but Harry, once again, plays the fool running where angels fear to tread.

Holy Harpy on a hogpile.
Bill is gone, Harry is pissed, Collins is, well, Dead.
Damn, son, when you do battle, you do BATTLE.
Fanboy for at least a few weeks more...
Fish.
Never ever ever tell an irritated woman "Relax".
Worst 5 day lecture I ever received.

You really need to put out the next chapter fast. I can't wait several weeks to find out if you really killed Bill.
I can't believe how hooked on this story I am. Keep up the great work and update again soon!

Wow. You killed Bill. Do you have the balls to make him stay dead though?
Nice chapter by the way, I enjoyed it.

Oh man! This isn't even fair! I hate clifhangers, especially a cliffhanger in THIS story. I'm nice and pissed now cause I'm realizing your other two stories will probably come before the next installment of this one. I will say, once again...great chapter, but until the next chapter's up....I'll be thinking of you with mild churlishness.
