Standing on the spire, she casually and familiarly addressed the sky, "Hey, buddy, considering I really helped your precious boy get rid of a Horcrux and even left behind such a powerful protector, why did you have to be so harsh on me this time? Don't be so petty, alright? All I want is to keep one person safe."
