Doing so would allow him to become a force against the returning Voldemort and allow him to complete his mission to protect Harry Potter. However, the appearance of a Horcrux at the end of year two may have tipped off Dumbledore that there was more to Voldemort's return than initially thought.Īs a result, Dumbledore may have known that his services would be needed, which is why he arrived at a particular need: prolonging his life.
