The residence of the **** of death, located in the underworld.
Surrounded by water on all sides, the goose feathers cannot float, the reed flowers sink to the bottom, and people die without a soul.
The name of its water is... Styx River.
- "The History of Human Magic"
Years after the end of the Wizarding War, Hermione Stark, the most famous witch in the world, has her manuscripts compiled and published in accordance with the will of Bathilda Bagshot.
This is known as the most important historical book in the history of wizards... It originated from Hermione's addition of a volume of "History of Prehistoric Magic" at the end of the book as appropriate.
The word Death and Styx has since become widely known by wizards, not as a bedtime story.
But before that, few people knew that Styx was real.
Then, there will be fewer and fewer if you successfully arrive here and successfully find the wizard of the **** of death.
Standing by the River Styx, even if he firmly believed that he would definitely reach this place, when he really stepped into this land, Tom's mood was still instantly agitated.
It has been more than two hundred years since the last wizard who arrived here.
If the conditions were even harsher... so harsh that a wizard who strictly followed the path of "The Story of the Three Brothers, Walking the Trial of Death"...
It has to be traced back to the Ravenclaw trio.
Tom is the first man in a thousand years.
Thinking of this, Tom was very proud.
He is enough to match those legends who have left a splendid name in the long history.
Considering that he is about to collect the three sets of Deathly Hallows by himself, and restore his complete body again...
Tom is extremely confident:
What **** Voldemort, the original Dark Lord Grindelwald, Dumbledore, Stark...
All will be stepped on by him and become his stepping stone.
Standing by the river, Tom observed the Styx for a while.
He threw a thick death worm into the water, and a large area of blood immediately floated on the water, like a huge blooming red lotus.
The water is turbid and turbulent, and the grievances of the undead for countless years have accumulated at the bottom of the river.
It is impossible for any wizard to go down this river, and there are basically no objects that can float on it.
According to the old man who called himself Slytherin:
There is only one thing in the world that can cross the Styx—the coffin that carried the body of Osiris.
Tom doesn't have this stuff. He's ready to go to Egypt to find it.
He also thought about coming here again and again in the future, stuck with bugs, and asked the **** of death for the Deathly Hallows.
God's wool, not white or white.
Since it is impossible to cross or fly over, we can only build a bridge over the river according to "The Story of the Three Brothers".
Even if they pass the trial of the **** of death, many wizards who come here will be stuck in the last level.
It is too easy for powerful wizards to build a bridge in the wizarding world.
Any metamorphosis can be done.
But in the underworld, wizards' magic is limited.
It can be said that it is basically impossible for a wizard who does not know prehistoric profound truths to cross the river.
But for Tom, it's easy... He and the old man have learned a lot of prehistoric mysteries.
Tom waved his wand, and a bridge appeared over the unpredictable water.
Harry looked at Tom's frenzied look, secretly speaking, and was about to escape, but was immediately imprisoned by magic.
Tom dragged Harry and strode towards the middle of the bridge.
The bridge was not long, and he quickly reached the middle.
It was still day, but the sun suddenly dimmed, and a dark red star hung in the sky.
The surrounding fog gathered and dyed eerily red.
across the river,
Suddenly a person appeared.
Across the churning river, he stood under the dense elder tree, opposite Tom.
The wide hood completely covered the entire face, not only the appearance, but also the figure, or other features could not be seen.
It seems to be an empty robe, floating in the air.
Tom hesitated, held his wand upside down, and asked, "Are you the **** of death?"
The black-robed wizard was indifferent, just overlooking the three.
Tom quickly took out the emerald.
While lurking in Ilvermorny, America, he kept a horned water snake.
When it came, Tom killed the long-horned water snake, took the gem from his forehead, and made it into a Horcrux.
He held the gem, and a living eye appeared... The eye was blinking, black and bright.
With Tom's control, the phantom floated out.
He looks exactly like Tom, with black hair and a tall man, but his outline is indistinct and seems to be blown away by a gust of wind.
Harry suddenly felt his forehead burst, the scar burning violently.
He covered his forehead with one hand, and then felt in horror that a sound came from his body to his ears.
He seemed to have a soul inside him.
Harry's whole body was so painful that he was about to faint, and he was suddenly very frightened, because he saw the thing that made the sound:
In the shape of a naked child, curled up, the red skin is rough and looks like it has been peeled off.
Next to that child, there was a baby lying all over, blue and breathless, long dead.
Harry remembered that he had seen the two babies.
Just five years ago in the Sanctuary of Secrets, he was caught by Tom in the diary, and then took the life of Avada.
He saw with his own eyes the baby died, and soon an identical existence reappeared.
At the time, Harry thought it was just a hallucination, but after seeing it again...
At this moment, he was aware, as if he realized something.
That was something he ignored for years.
Harry had fallen into a peculiar state, and Tom was looking at Death.
The three soul fragments are all here, meeting the conditions of the "three brothers".
"Each of you can get a gift as a reward for getting here."
Death spoke suddenly, his voice low, as if speaking in Tom's head.
The soul in the gem Horcrux immediately said:
"I want a woman, her name is Elaine..."
As a condition for Slytherin to help himself, Tom needs to ask for something for him when he finds Death.
This is a contract that must be completed, bound by prehistoric mystery magic.
So the three Deathly Hallows, the first of which has been reserved by Slytherin.
Tom was still curious about what Slytherin would want, but he didn't expect to just want a woman.
The God of Death walked to the shore, grabbed a lump of mud by the Styx River, pinched a long slender clay figurine, and threw it to the Horcrux.
Tom controlled the confused Harry again and said, "I hope that the souls of the killed can be gathered together."
Reaper returned to the river, picked up a barrel he used as a chamber pot, and threw it to Harry.
The drum was shaking, and there was still liquid in it.
Then Death looked at Tom again and asked him what he wanted.
The third child in all three brother stories lived to the end.
This is also the reason why Tom deliberately asked for the Deathly Hallows at the end What Tom values most, is undoubtedly immortality.
This is his goal that will never change.
But the Horcrux had major flaws. After thinking for a long time, he finally looked at the **** of death and said sincerely:
"Death, I want something. Even if I am killed, I can be resurrected in the best state immediately, and there will never be any restrictions."
Death stared at Tom with hollow eyes, as if reluctantly.
Finally, he dug up a triangular urn made of elder, wrapped in gold inside and out, from under the elder tree, and threw it to Tom.
After Tom got it, he knew that the name of this Deathly Hallows was... the Ark of the Golden Covenant.
