Harry may perish, but the odds are against it. If he goes it will have to be for higher moral reasons and for huge payoff. The villain can't win - JKR would be killed for that, and there is no worse way to die than be trampled o death by a mob of 10 year-olds.
...but what about Hermione???
Names are vitally important in Rowling's world.
Sirius = dog.
Lupin = wolf.
Pettigrew = small ("petite") + enlarge ("grew").
There are probably a hundred significant examples. So, Hermione is in serious danger. Shakespeare had his Hermione appear to die but come to life at the end. However, in the play on which he based "The Winter's Tale" (Pandosto), Hermione died. Hence the foreshadowed event may have already happened when Hermione Granger was petrified in Chamber of Secrets. Should JKR being more of a Pandosto girl, Hermione is in serious trouble.
