The purpose of this study is to discuss the journey of self-discovery of the character

orphan who grows up in a challenging environment, trying to find his identity amidst
the conflict between the wizarding world and normal life. This research also highlights

method used is qualitative descriptive analysis, with data obtained through in-depth
observation of important scenes, dialogues, and interactions between characters that
