v2 Chapter 1808: The last Horcrux (2/2)
Dobby shook his head and said, ”Dobby doesn't know anything about ancient rune, miss, Dobby has never heard of it, and neither does the other house-elves.”
”That was nearly a thousand years ago, and it's normal that you don't know.” Hermione continued, ”Ever since it was conquered by humans, the inheritance of elves has been broken, and they have completely become a subordinate race of wizards. As for fairies, they also He was enslaved by wizards for hundreds of years, and although he gained an independent status through continuous rebellion, there are not many fairies who can remember the traditions and writings left by his ancestors.”
In fact, not only fairies and elves, but also many non-human intelligent creatures and magical animals have been killed by wizards for thousands of years. Long, Cyclops, etc. These ancient magical creatures are now all extinct and become history.
Their magic, their writing, and their civilization, annihilated. The current wizards can only see the names of these creatures in books, and imagine their appearances out of thin air.
Some people say that this is a kind of progress, but if you think about it from another angle, isn't it a pity?
Human wizards have explored every corner of the magical world, conquered all magical creatures, and domesticated countless magical animals. They seem powerful and invincible, but in fact, the world has lost its diversity and a lot less wonderful.
”On the hills to the east!” said Sirius, ”I don't remember much there, except that somewhere on the top of the valley east of the valley there is a statue and a building in memory of Godric Gryffindor himself, that building It looks like a monastery, and when the moon is full, the moonlight shines right above the statue, and James and I visited it. Come on, if the house-elves' home is there, I probably know how to get there.”
He said, walking in one direction, and Harry and Hermione followed.
Soon, they left the main road and walked on a rough road, and walked in silence for a while. Harry was still thinking about the idea that had just popped up in his head, and his thoughts were complicated.
Hermione didn't speak either, she thought of Ai Wen again. If it is true that as Sirius said just now, Ivan met Dumbledore in the world of the dead, what would they say?
The last enemy to destroy is death! The only way to defeat death is to accept it, and Dumbledore may choose to go on and defeat this last enemy.
What about Ai Wen, will he choose to go down or come back? Only people with real courage will go on without any scruples. Hermione does not doubt Ai Wen's courage, but she hopes that he can come back, even for her...
In the night sky, the stars twinkled brightly, and a shooting star suddenly passed by.
................................
Voldemort doesn't seem to have thought about whether Harry will come to Godric's Hollow, or has thought about it, but he thinks that the time has come, and he can't arrange for someone to stay here all the time. All in all, Sirius, Ha Leigh, Hermione, and Dobby were four, and they didn't encounter a single Death Eater or dark wizard along the way.
Based on the clues left by Mr. Lovegood, they quickly found the destination of the trip.
