Harry qed jitkellem f'isem il-partit tal-Hodor, le? Ghall-inqas, hekk fhimt jien il-kelmiet "We, our, us". Issa, il-fatt li inti identifikajt ruhek ma' dak li kiteb, mal-"ahna, taghna, lilna", ghalija jfisser li ghall-inqas fil-kwistjoni tal-htiega ta' riforma inti <I>tidentifika ruhek</I> mal-Hodor, imma ma jfissirx li <I>inti</I> Ahdar... huma zewg affarijiet differenti.
