JK Rowling reveals 'twisted sad story' of Draco Malfoy in new Christmas riddle

London, Dec 23 - JK Rowling has recently published her new riddle that leads to the "twisted sad story" of Draco Malfoy.

The Harry Potter author had written 12 brand new stories, and the latest one would be her longest Harry Potter Christmas story yet, the Mirror reported.

The novelist included the new riddle that reads as "death Eaters gather on the Astronomy Tower, keen to rid Dumbledore of his life and power, but which student masterminded this plot with precision, in order to fulfill the Dark Lord's terrible mission."

The answer to the riddle was Draco Malfoy, and by clicking on the photo entitled "Avada Kedavra" fans can find the writing and by double clicking on Malfoy's image the passage can be unlocked, which reveals the tale of his troubled relationship with his father Lucius, his rivalry with Harry and the difficulty he had being ordered to kill Professor Dumbledore, before Snape stepped up to take over.

Rowling also admitted that she "pities" Malfoy, and revealed that the character goes on to follow in his father's footsteps to occupy a wealthy existence without needing to work; having a wife and son and hoping he would go on for better things. (ANI)
