Re: OD: Secrets of the Darkest Arts
"So what you're saying is we need to find a volcano," Sirius muttered; he'd come up alongside Gideon and was peering over his shoulder at the page with a frown; the script alone was anxiety-inducing. "D'you suppose He'd pick jewelry for His...horcrux vessel? Or do we think he's smart enough to have stuffed his soul into some pebble in someone's garden somewhere? And for that matter, does it say, is he actually trapped in whatever-it-is right now, like a djinn in a lamp, or...?"
Not that it truly mattered, but the idea of whatever was left of Voldemort's consciousness trapped in some small relic somewhere throughout eternity was a bit satisfying, Sirius thought.
"If He's possessing one of his followers, and it withers the body, we can keep an eye out for purebloods looking particularly sickly. It's...something, I guess."
