HORCRUX, THE FOSTERS & NAGINI 'THE MALEDICTUS'

Today, The Fosters and The Grandma have seen how Neville Longbottom killed Nagini, the last of the Horcruxes. With this, they have already destroyed all the Horcruxes.

 

The Fosters have finished helping Harry Potter, Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley in their search. It is time to enjoy these last days in Hogwarts without dangers and enemies.

A Maledictus is a female individual who carries a blood curse that eventually turns her into a beast permanently. The curse is carried from birth and passed down from mother to daughter. The beast ultimately transformed into can vary based on the curse. Before their permanent transformation, they have the ability to change shape at will, which becomes gradually uncontrollable.

Nagini was a female Maledictus cursed to transform into a snake. Originating possibly in Indonesia, by 1927 she was a performer at the Circus Arcanus where she met Credence Barebone and had the ability then to transform at will.

Nagini was seemingly trapped in snake form and belonged to Lord Voldemort, with whom she had a special bond largely due to becoming a Horcrux, after her master had killed Bertha Jorkins.

After Lord Voldemort's initial downfall, he used Nagini's venom as one of the ingredients for a Potion to regain strength, which eventually led to his rebirth. Later in the same year, she attacked Arthur Weasley but he managed to survive. During the Second Wizarding War, she had to be destroyed for Lord Voldemort to finally be defeated.

Nagini was killed by Neville Longbottom with Godric Gryffindor's Sword and was the last Horcrux to be destroyed after Rowena Ravenclaw's diadem.

After he discovered that Harry was searching for his Horcruxes, Lord Voldemort placed Nagini into a Protective Magical Cage to prevent her from being killed.

Lord Voldemort told her that it was for her good, though since he was trying to ensure his immortality, it was primarily for his. Lord Voldemort then decided that it was no longer safe to send Nagini on any more missions for him.

Shortly before the one-hour armistice during the Battle of Hogwarts, Lord Voldemort used Nagini to murder Severus Snape in the Shrieking Shack by expanding the cage over and on top of him.

Nagini proceeded to sink her fangs into Severus Snape's neck, and when Lord Voldemort pulled the protective cage off of Severus Snape, he fell to the ground with blood gushing from the wound in his neck.

When Harry Potter was apparently killed by Lord Voldemort, Nagini was released from the protective enchantment as he believed there to be no more threats to her life, and she was draped around Lord Voldemort's shoulders during the Death Eaters' victory march back to Hogwarts.

After Neville Longbottom had openly defied him, Lord Voldemort punished him by forcing the Sorting Hat onto his head and setting it on fire. The Death Eaters were then attacked, and during the ensuing battle, Neville Longbottom pulled out the Sword of Gryffindor from the Hat, and, after he swung the blade in one upward stroke, beheaded Nagini, whose head spun high into the air as her body slumped onto the ground, while Lord Voldemort screamed in rage.

With Nagini's death, Lord Voldemort's final Horcrux was destroyed, and thus stripping him of his immortality. He furiously tried to kill Neville Longbottom for it, but was stopped by Harry Potter. Lord Voldemort himself finally died when his Killing Curse rebounded onto himself once again.

 The slash of the silver blade could not be heard over 

the roar of the oncoming crowd or the sounds

of the clashing giants or the stampeding centaurs,

and yet it seemed to draw every eye.

With a single stroke Neville sliced off the great snake's head,

which spun high into the air,

gleaming in the light flooding from the entrance hall,

and Voldemort's mouth as open in a scream

of fury that nobody could hear,

and the snake's body thudded to the ground at his feet.

MAGICAL OBJECTS, THE LEGENDARY MAGICAL ARTIFACTS

Today, The Grandma has been reading about some legendary magical artifacts that you can find in Hogwarts.

The Goblet of Fire

The Goblet of Fire is a goblet made of wood and is used at the beginning of every Triwizard Tournament. It is used solely to choose the participating school champions, serving as an impartial judge.

Slips of parchment with the names of potential candidates are placed in the Goblet and, at the designated time, a representative from each school is chosen when the slip of parchment containing their name spouts forth from the Goblet in a fountain of magical fire. 

Barty Crouch Jr., masquerading as Professor Moody, stated that the Goblet of Fire was an exceptionally powerful magical object and it is very difficult to hoodwink, unless someone uses an exceptionally strong Confundus Charm.

During its use in Goblet of Fire, it is placed in the entrance hall and surrounded by an Age Line, a charm placed by Dumbledore to prevent underage wizards from entering the tournament. Anyone underage would grow a long white beard, as the Weasley twins demonstrated when they attempted to fool the goblet with an Ageing Potion. When not in use, the Goblet is kept in a jewelled casket in Dumbledore's closet.

Godric Gryffindor's Sword

The Sword of Godric Gryffindor is a goblin-made sword adorned with large rubies on the pommel. It was once owned by Godric Gryffindor, one of the medieval founders of Hogwarts. In Chamber of Secrets, Harry draws the Sword out of the Sorting Hat to battle and kill Salazar Slytherin's basilisk.

When Dumbledore learns of Harry's concern that he does not belong in the House of Gryffindor, in part at being parseltongue like Lord Voldemort, the headmaster is able to put the boy's concerns at ease by telling him only a true member of that house could have summoned that sword in his time of need. The sword also plays a key role in Deathly Hallows, where it is revealed to have become imbued with Basilisk venom following its use against the Basilisk, as it only takes in that which makes it stronger. It is subsequently used to destroy three of Voldemort's Horcruxes.

Because the Sword was goblin-forged, it is indestructible. According to Griphook the goblin, the Sword was originally forged by the goblin Ragnuk the First and stolen by Gryffindor. The Sword was taken by Griphook when the Sword fell from Harry's grasp during the raid on Bellatrix Lestrange's vault in book seven. The sword returned to wizard hands when Neville pulled it out of the Sorting Hat and used it to decapitate Nagini, Voldemort's snake. This shows that no matter where the sword happened to be at the time, it will reappear in the Hat when a true member of Gryffindor house is in need of it.

Godric Gryffindor commissioned Ragnuk the First to make the sword for him under his specifications. Once Ragnuk had made the sword, he was so fond of it that after he had presented it to Gryffindor, he told the goblins it had been stolen and sent minions to retrieve it for him. Gryffindor defeated the goblins using magic and instead of killing them, he bewitched them to go back to Ragnuk and say that if he tried to take the sword again, he would use it against them. The king took the threat seriously, but still insisted it had been stolen from him until the day he died.

It is mentioned in the Deathly Hallows that the Sword of Gryffindor is supposed to be in Bellatrix Lestrange's vault, placed there by Severus Snape. Unknown to Bellatrix, that sword was only a replica. When Harry, Ron and Hermione were captured and brought to Malfoy Manor, she spotted the sword near one of the Snatchers, who intended to keep it. She killed him and forced the rest out of the room, then tortured Hermione for information about the sword. But at Harry's request, Griphook lied and said that the sword was a forgery. Bellatrix's reaction to having her vault possibly broken into convinced Harry that the Horcrux was also placed in her vault.

Philosopher's stone

Based upon the ancient alchemical idea of the philosopher's stone, the stone is owned by Nicolas Flamel and first mentioned in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. The stone is legendary in that it changes all metals to gold, and can be used to brew a potion called the Elixir of Life, making the drinker immortal. The Philosopher's Stone is seen only in the first and last book, although it is referenced several times throughout the series. It was destroyed at the end of the first book by Dumbledore with Flamel's agreement.

Sorting Hat

The Sorting Hat is a sapient artefact used at Hogwarts, which reads minds to determine which of the four school houses -Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw or Slytherin- each new student is to be assigned for their years at Hogwarts. The hat resembles a dilapidated conical leather wide-brimmed wizard's hat, with folds and tears that make it appear to have eyes and a mouth. During the opening banquet at the beginning of each school year, the Hat is placed on every first-year student's head. The Hat announces its choice aloud, and the student joins the selected house. The Hat speaks to the student while they are being sorted and is willing to take the student's preferences into account when it makes its decision. Sometimes it does not have the need to do so: for instance, the Hat barely touched Draco Malfoy's head before sending him to Slytherin. The Sorting Hat had a difficult time placing Harry, almost placing him into Slytherin house before he requested specifically and emphatically not to be. The Hat instead placed him into Gryffindor, the house of his parents.

The Sorting Hat originally belonged to Godric Gryffindor, one of the four founders of Hogwarts. The four founders used to hand-pick the students for their houses, but then realised someone else would have to do it after they died, so Gryffindor took off his hat, enchanted it, and let it choose. Since then, the Sorting Hat has always been used to choose which house the students are put in. Due to its age, it appears patched and frayed and extremely dirty. Before Sorting the students each year, the hat recites a new introductory song. These songs occasionally warn of danger to come, as in Order of the Phoenix. The Sorting Hat's songs vary in length and content, but always include a brief description of each house.

The Sorting Hat has shown the ability to conjure the Sword of Gryffindor from under its brim, as shown in two instances. Both times it is used to kill snakes; in Chamber of Secrets, it provides the sword to Harry to kill the Basilisk, and in Deathly Hallows, it delivers the sword to Neville. Dumbledore makes it clear in Chamber of Secrets that only a true Gryffindor can summon the sword in this fashion. In Deathly Hallows the Sorting Hat is set on fire by Voldemort, although it appears the hat was not destroyed, as Neville was able to draw the Sword of Gryffindor from it immediately after and behead Voldemort's snake Nagini. In the epilogue at the end of Deathly Hallows, the Hat's survival is confirmed, as Harry tells his youngest son that the Hat would take his preference into consideration.

Hmm, difficult. VERY difficult. Plenty of courage, I see.
Not Slytherin, eh? Are you sure?
Well if you're sure, better be... GRYFFINDOR!
