Half-Blood Prince Discussion, Spoilers Options

[jordanriane]

Since Anna mentioned a new topic for discussion of the book, I figured I'd just create the new topic, that way people can talk about the book here, instead of in the other thread, that people can use who haven't finished/read the book yet.

and i also know who  RAB is.

Regulus Black, the brother of sirius black, who was murdered by the dark lord ages ago.

How were you able to figure that it was him?



The only real problem I had with this book, was the first chapter, with the Minister. I don't really see that it was too relevent, other then telling us that the muggle world saw these deaths are regular murders (aside from trying to figure out how someone died when they were alone and locked up) and whatnot.. But it was just really irrelevent, and ticked me off that it had really little meaning with the rest of the book.

Maybe it'll tie in for book 7, hopefully.

Now to a theory I had about the soul (forgot the real word for them)-



What we know about VM’s souls-

* DD isn’t the only one who knows about them. So does R.A.B

(I think that’s the initials)

* His souls are stored in a Diary, Ring, Locket, Goblet, Snake, VM, and in an obeject thought to be owned by either Griffendor or Ravenclaw.
* To split the soul you need to kill someone
* You have to kill all VM’s souls to kill him



Unknown stuff-



* Whats the spell to split the soul
* Where the last soul is
* How to destroy objects housing souls



My idea involving Souls



Ok so the list of souls goes as follows- Diary, Ring, Locket, Goblet, Snake, VM, and in an obeject thought to be owned by either Griffendor or Ravenclaw. So to start lets talk about the unknown obect. First I would like to point out a few things. One you can store souls in living things, like a snake. Second you must kill someone to do it, and the killing curse is Avada Kadava (I think). Also DD has said to Harry something along the lines of “When VM tried to kill you, he put some of him self into you, that’s why you can speak Parcletounge (speaking to snakes)” ext. Also when the Death Eaters got into Hogwarts they used a vanishing cabinet. How Draco described it, really made me thinking. He said that his friend that was shut in it, heard both stuff happening in Hogwarts, and stuff happening in that shop. There was a connection there. Those are the 4 main thing I am basing my argument on.

I believe when VM used Avada Kadava on little Harry, the spell back fired and split his soul once again. Part of his soul went to Harry while he kept the other half. That would mean that Harry has 2 souls in him. That expains why he could feel how VM is feeling. It would work like the vanishing cabinet. The soul is connecting the two of them.

Also DD says he thinks it is stored in something owned by Griffenor or Ravenclaw. I know this has been said before, but what if Harry is the desendent of one of these houses? Then DD is right, it is stored in one of them.

Now the interesting part, If Part of VM is in Harry, how can he defeat VM without killing him self? I mean how can he kill just one part of him self. This is where I think a big battle inside of harry with take place. I think each soul will struggle to control Harry’s body and mind, but then Harry’s Soul will win the fight destroying VM’s soul. Anyone like my ideas so far?


I have page numbers and more proof for it too
