You know how we assumed that he'd gone off somewhere because he couldn't take Voldemort's torture anymore and ... and killed himself?
Well.
We were right. Only, he didn't stop there.
Moony, he took the locket - the one Pansy and I have been looking for - he used it to switch it with the one that she and Sally-Anne and Ron and Harry just destroyed. The horcrux.
He took Kreacher with him, found this - cave, I suppose, Kreacher said, with a lake and an island in the centre - and he made Kreacher feed him poison out of a sort of bowl they found, in the middle, until they got to the bottom where the locket was. Then he had Kreacher make the switch and told him to leave, to come back here and destroy it and never to tell our mother, or anyone else in the Council, what Reg had done.
He was already dying from the poison but Kreacher said that the cave had another surprise. The lake was full of - of inferi. Voldemort must have planted them there over a course of years, maybe out of all the people he'd killed on his way to power, since I guess this hiding place had been there a long time.
Anyway.
He ordered Kreacher to abandon him. Kreacher saw him trying to drink water from the shore. And the inferi ....
So. Now we know what happened.

She deserves to know.

I'll see if I can't get him to skip over some of the worse details, maybe. So it's not quite so difficult for either of them.
Minerva, Hermione and now this. I'm - well, I went looking for a little peace and quiet. As it's been so jolly round here lately.

I was thinking we had a good ten years before we'd need to share the house long term with a teenager.
I suppose I should just leave them be, for now. I don't want them to feel like they need to decide TODAY whether they're staying or going to Moddey or ... who knows.
But yes. Our house has managed to feel empty, crowded, frenetic and miserable pretty much around the clock these last few days. I don't think it's just the impending full moon that's making me feel like I'm going spare. So I certainly don't blame you for wanting a quiet moment in Regulus's room. Just ... let me know if you want a little company.

And yeah. Remember that extra floor expansion we were thinking about, when we first moved? And we decided to hold off until we figured things out a little more?
I've been thinking maybe it's time to add it in, if we're going to become a boarding house.
Or we could finally clean out this room, and my old one, properly, and give those to Draco and Hermione, if they want them.

We know now -- we know for sure -- that he's not coming back. And he deserves a proper memorial, not just an old bedroom.

Did you tell Kreacher it's been destroyed?
That could drive a house-elf mad, being given an order -- a desperate, dying order! -- that he could never fulfill.
(no subject)
The little imp will probably be so grateful she destroyed it he'll tell her anything she wants to know.
(no subject)
After all these years with Kreacher I'd begun to think that other sort of elf was a myth, but apparently Pansy has one.
Anyway. Yes. It's almost a shame we can't gift him to her, I imagine he'd serve her with rather more enthusiasm than he does us.
(no subject)
Kreacher did all those things to please HIS mistress, too. Just not the mistress's disappointing sons.
Heh, both of us turned out far more disappointing than she realised. Never would have thought the Goblin had it in him.
(no subject)
So in a way I'm glad she was the one who found the locket, despite what it did to her.
And there's no telling how long it would have taken the rest of us to find it, if she hadn't. Who'd think to go looking for a horcrux in a house-elf's nest? Of all the places...
How many more do you suppose there are?
