He still recalled the first time he had seen Thestrals in his fifth year. No one else could see them and everyone kept giving him weird glances as he insisted on describing what was pulling the carriages. But it was Luna who said she could see them as well. Although he wasn’t reassured it was a good thing back then, time had proven how Luna knew exactly what she was talking about. Not only that she even joined Dumbledore’s army and later fought beside him to break Sirius out. Harry had never told Ron or Hermione about the voices behind the veil. When he went to the Ministry of Magic both he and Luna heard voices from behind a veil – a veil through which Sirius fell after being hit by the Killing Curse. It had seemed so insignificant then, but Harry knew there was something connecting the two of them. May be it was their shared loss of a parent, may be they knew loss and pain and obscurity. But when Sirius died, it was Luna’s words that comforted him the most. He had so many people around him, yet this one very odd girl helped him come in terms with death of a loved one.
