Marauders Map query

[kennahijja]

Can anyone help out a miserably bad reader of 'Deathly Hallows'? The Marauders Map? Did it survive the end of the story? If so, any hint who ended up with it? Still Harry's?

Heretical heckling from the peanut gallery...

Waldorf: JKR probably forgot about it in the end, just like other items of note.
Statler: What, like Blaise?
Both: *cackle*

Uh, sorry, that wasn't very helpful. But if *you* can't remember, dear, a close reader of distinction, then who can?

Afaik, Harry still has it in the end - he definitely still had it during the camping trip in DH, when he used it to cyber-stalk Ginny... I think it makes an appearance during the final battle too, but perhaps I read that in a fanfic instead. Sorry, not very helpful either...

I'm pretty sure it survived, too. I think Harry still had it at the end ... at least I can't recall anyone else taking it from him or it being destroyed.

I don't recall, which means he probably still had it at the end. We'd remember any loss/destruction, right?

ch. The Lost Diadem, page 471 uk adult edition:

[...] Harry pulled Luna back into the shadows, fumbled in the pouch around his neck and took out the Marauder's Map.[...]

There's an interview with JKR somewhere where she says she imagines Harry passed it on to James, and passed on the Invisibility Cloak to Albus Severus.
