Harry's scar, which bears a connection to Voldemort, begins to hurt more frequently and intensely.
In the climactic final task of the tournament, Harry and Cedric Diggory, the champion from Hogwarts' fellow school, find themselves transported to a graveyard. There, they encounter Peter Pettigrew, who sacrifices Cedric and uses Harry's blood to resurrect Lord Voldemort. Voldemort is restored to a physical form, and his return becomes known to the wizarding world.
