None of the four other goblins in the room was foolish enough to ask Ragnok Why are you doing things this way?, but Ragnok answered the question they dared not ask. "So what if the Malfoys and Riddle find out tomorrow that Harry Potter owns the house they’re living in, instead of today? One day’s delay in their getting the news should make no difference worth mentioning, my brain tells me. But I can’t shake the hunch that Harry Potter once again will surprise us all; and if he does, this would be good for the Goblin Nation."
