For the next several weeks, Harry is left to recover. Sirius is a never-wavering presence at his bedside, and Neville visits often. The nurses feed him a near constant string of potions. They taste awful, but the improvements are marked. During his recovery, he dreams, and his dreams are strange. He dreams of a place he is certain is in the Ministry. He dreams of a snake striking a man, and when he tells Sirius, Arthur Weasley is found injured. The Weasley children that come to thank him look terrified. Sirius just looks offended that they would dare look at his godson in such a way. Neville has the nerve to tell them off and gets them to leave.
