Saint Hedwig
It turned out that Hedwig played a very important role in the Harry Potter universe from the very beginning. She didn’t just send and receive letters on Harry’s behalf, but she made the ultimate sacrifice in the end. When a killing curse was fired in Harry’s direction, she put herself between it and Harry, giving her life up to save Harry’s.
Who knew an owl could be so brave? Well, if you know where the name Hedwig comes from, it’s not all that surprising. Hedwig is actually the name of the saint of orphaned and abandoned children. Harry was orphaned at a young age and emotionally abandoned by his closest relatives from the start.
