Now that Deathly Hallows is finished, it is time for us to begin a new journey with the Alchemy thread: part 7. All the pieces are laid out. Let's analyze!

Here is the previous Alchemy discussion.

Is there any meaning to Charity=Victory? Charity being in the first chapter and Victory in the epilogue? Does Charity...being charitable equal victory in being immortal and having a afterlife?
I love that.

Pretty sure the reference to Victoire was a reference to Boudica (Victoria is a form of her name) whose ghost is said to be seen at Platform 9 3/4 at King's Cross Station. smile.gif

No doubt she was so named after the events that transpired at Hogwarts.

I don't know, maybe you're right, I just thought the name Charity was appropriate to the woman because she showed so much of it in defending Muggles during that time.
