Chapter 18: If She Comes Up It's Baptism

In the Deathly Hallows, written by J.K Rowling, Harry is required to retrieve the sword of Gryffindor, which finds itself in the bottom of a frozen over pond.  Harry at this point found himself at odds with his best friend and feeling entirely alone and entirely hopeless as well.  When he cracks the pond and retrieves the sword, he reemerges from the water anew.  His best friend has come back and he's retrieved a new weapon in his war against his arch-nemesis, Voldemort.  From that point on, the mood of the book changes from the bitter cold undertone, to a hopeful exuberent tone.  Rather than the dreary one the reader had gotten so used to reading.  Harry finds himself more hopeful and more at peace within himself.  His diction improves vastly, using gentler words rather than harsh bitter words.  Harry becomes softer within essence.
