Order Only: the Diadem

alt_justinHello, everyone,
I say, we're one closer to our goal. Today, Ron, Harry and I destroyed Ravenclaw's diadem. (I say, sorry, Luna. Oh, and Charlie, I do apologise if it makes negotiations more difficult with the goblins. It did look goblin-made, what, but since it was decidedly another horcrux, perhaps they won't mind.)
I don't want anyone to panic, but we used Fiendfyre. It went better than I rather expected, what, though it was still--well, I say. We did it, anyway, and the secret room helped us keep the fire from spreading.
Ron sustained a few burns and Sally-Anne thought it best to take me to the Hospital Wing for mine. I'm back in my dormitory now. I've got a salve for the shoulder but it jolly well hurts, even with that. The hand.... Well, I can write, as you can see, though not as steadily as one might wish. But Healer Patil says I ought to see marked improvement by morning and if I continue with the ointment, it will be fully healed by next week. It seems I'll have a jolly handsome scar, which he was quick to assure me will make me quite fascinating. He was equally quick to tell us not to try this sort of spellwork again without proper supervision, however.
At any rate, no lasting harm was done and the diadem is well and truly gone now.

Re: Private Message to Sally-Anne
Date: 2015-05-01 03:40 am (UTC)He also -- you know, we were all there when they -- he saw Padma at it. He looked every person she killed was ripping out another piece of his soul.
Anyway. Yes. I suppose after we'd worked side by side at a battle, or whatever you want to say that business at Ollerton was, he felt like he could treat me as a colleague. Though mostly I think he just wanted a tactful way to let you know that he wasn't going to tattle on you to Dolohov but he really hopes you don't try Fiendfyre again unless Dolohov is watching over you.
