Book 1: Ha ha, look, it's a talking hat!
Book 3: You're being guarded from a murderer by physical manifestations of depression, but don't worry, if you master the magical manifestation of hope you can chase them away. go get 'em, tiger!
Book 5: Okay, so about the depression thing, everyone hates you because of a government smear campaign that they're doing to deny that their biggest enemy has come back. But at the very least you can fuck up this one teacher that's ruining your school, that's something.
Book 7: Okay, so about the government's greatest enemy, he took over the government. Now you're going to need this thing called a "resurrection stone". It doesn't resurrect anything, but it brings back the shades of your loved ones, so at the very least you can have some company when you walk towards the worst enemy of Wizardkind to get slaughtered. But, to be frank, that's the most anyone could do in this situation, and if you brought living companions they might get killed, so it's best if your companions are already dead. Don't worry, at your funeral we'll talk about how useful you were.
