What’s a book or series element that you have a strong hunch (or know for a fact) that was kind of made up to explain something but clearly wasn’t part of the original story or plot? For example, for me, it seems obvious that in Harry Potter, the whole idea that Voldemort created the problem of never having a consistent DADA teacher after he was rejected was made up after the fact. This seems obvious to me because I feel like in the first book, everyone knew Professor Quirrell already like he’d been around before.
Just wondering what others have observed like this!
