<P> In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows , Voldemort and his Death Eaters have tightened their grip on the wizarding world . Snape is named Headmaster of Hogwarts , while Death Eaters Alecto and Amycus Carrow are appointed as Hogwarts staff . The novel focuses largely on Harry and his friends and events outside the school ; therefore Snape plays a limited role at the start . In the course of the book , Harry and his friends find out that a few students attempted to steal the Sword of Godric Gryffindor , and that Snape subsequently sent it to be stored at Gringotts Wizarding Bank ; however , that sword was only a copy . Later on , Harry and Ron are led to find the real sword by a Patronus taking the form of a doe . ( Towards the end of the book , Harry learns that this was Snape 's Patronus , taking the same shape as Harry 's mother Lily 's Patronus , a visible sign of his lifelong love for Harry 's mother , and that Dumbledore had asked Snape to ensure that Harry gained possession of the sword . The novel also reveals that Snape had covertly used his position as Headmaster to protect the students and to contain the Carrows . ) </P>
