Everything runs through one boy. Harry has more ties than anyone on the map. 2. The story starts a generation earlier, with four friends at school and the one who betrayed them. 3. Snape is the map's hardest line to read: friend to Lily, rival to James, trusted by Dumbledore, and Dumbledore's killer by agreement. 4. On the other side, the Death Eaters are tied to Voldemort and to each other by family as much as by loyalty.
