The students make their way outside for [Dumbledore]'s funeral, attended by most of the important wizards in Britain, along with centaurs and merpeople.

After the end of [Dumbledore]'s funeral, Harry reluctantly breaks up with Ginny and walks away.

Rufus Scrimgeour seeks out Harry again to ask him where he had been with [Dumbledore] and to again ask for his help, but Harry again refuses and Scrimgeour walks away.

Harry walks down to the lake with Ron and Hermione, talking about Scrimgeour, Hogwarts, and Harry's plans to visit Privet Drive and [Godric's Hollow] and seek out the other Horcruxes. Ron and Hermione, though, remind him of Bill and Fleur's wedding that needs to happen first - and pledge to join him wherever he goes.
