(pg. 36) (Harry Potter & The Half Blood Prince)\\nHenry Potter, Hardwin Potter, and Lolanthe Peverell Harry\'s ancestor\'s have arrived find out how the invisibility cloak was handed down to "The Chosen One".\\nAll the extinct houses of "The Sacred 28" are broken down and dissected.

Could it possibly be the famous "The Tales of Beedle The Bard"...\\nA long time ago in a far far away land was\\xa0"The Wizard and The Hopping Pot", "Babbity Rabbity and Her Cackling Stump"\\xa0and "The Fountain of Fortune"...\\nHis heart was consumed by Dark Magic, when he removed it from the crystal enchanted casket. It degenerated into a savage beast state driving the Warlock to take force of a truly human heart. The Warlock tore out the Maiden\'s Heart, to replace his own. However before fulfilling the procedure and replacing his consumed heart he died across the maiden\'s dead body with one heart in each hand. - "The Warlock\'s Hairy Heart"\\n"When I conceived the idea of writing "The Tales of Beedle and The Bard" in full, I was intrigued to discover how wizarding fairy tales would differ from those told to muggle children. In the later witches and wizards regulated to walk on it, in pivotal roles; within "The Tales of Beedle and The Bard", they might think that magic would solve any fairy-tale dilemma, but it transpires that there is always somebody who can cast a more powerful curse, or a creature who will not yield to one\'s best enchantments. Then, the intractable and eternal human predicaments of love, death and the pursuit of happiness are not necessarily resolved any more easy by the possession of wands. So these wizarding fairy-tales have much in common with their muggle counterparts: they exist to express human hopes and fears, and to teach a lesson or two. There are, however, a few important differences: witches tend to save themselves, rather than waiting around for a man to do it, and young wizards are warned, not against the dangers and temptations of the outside world, but their own magical powers.
