Makes sense to get Harry et al out to defeat Voldemort. I don't see any opportunity cost here. Ostensibly, Griphook has everything to gain and nothing to lose by getting them out or at least saving them. What am I missing? Edit: scifi.stackexchange.com/questions/261438/… | |

For example, Griphook said rightful ownership belonged to Ragnuk, and when Godric took the sword - he didn't have rightful ownership. So the sword rightfully belongs back to Ragnuk's estate, likely administered as a common-shared-good for all descendants of Ragnuk I think. "Likely" - cause I can't recall where in the texts I got that impressions of goblin's nuanced views on ownership and inheritance. | |
