Leaning against her back, Harry admitted uneasily, “I was once kidnapped when I was ten years old. They tossed me into a big iron bucket, and the air inside was very sparse... I was trapped there for a very long time. Later, fear struck me whenever I saw such big iron buckets, and I developed a dislike of dark places.”
