Harry's love for his witches and for humanity in general saved him in the end. I didn't like the idea of all wizards stripped of their powers just because they were men. Harry was right in that it was unjust and for the Goddess to do that made her just as domineering as any man she had a problem with.
I'm not a feminist, but I do believe that neither sex has the right of unrighteous dominion over the other for any reason. Spouses are to be helpmates to one another--a team. If one wields magic in dominion over the other, there is no team. It's Voldemort all over again.
It made me cry sad tears. I cried for Harry because he'd given so much and been through so much that he was stripped of his magic just because he was a man and his women had to return it to him. They did it for love of him, which was a beautiful thing, but that's not the point. It should never have been taken from him to begin with.
Overall, I enjoyed this story. The use of the homunculi was imaginative, if not a bit disturbing, but it allowed for some redemption on Bellatrix's, Narcissa's, and Tom's parts. It was just sad that Tom lost his magic so soon after he was revived, especially when he tried to help eliminate an terrible evil.
I'm glad Ginny was redeemed in her own way. Possession by that type of demon--or any demon--is distructive to the body and spirit. She was headed for disaster, that's for sure.
Gods and goddesses in legend and lore are almost always petty and manipulative and that applies to Astarte and Abaddon. What's important is an individual's right to choose for him or herself which path he or she will take and either reap the blessings or consequences.
Good job.
