The Last Horcrux/Diagon Alley/Gringott’s Goblin Bank
By the time you approach Gringott’s Goblin Bank, the temporary lull in the storm has come to an end, and the sky is hurling sheets of rain on the city below. Even your water repelling charm does little to stop you from being soaked as the wind lashes you relentlessly.
Ahead of you, the bank stands like a rock against the waves.
You rush inside, shaking your wand and wishing you’d pulled up the hood on your shadow cloak instead of relying on a temporary magical umbrella. Inside, there are some hushed voices of customers and the goblins serving them, but for the most part, the goblins are working in silence at their desks.
You don’t need to visit the bank for money. You have enough in your purse to buy almost anything you desire in Diagon Alley, and anything more expensive can be paid for with a letter of credit from the bank. No, you want to come here to check your vault for something far more important.
In your timeline, a fragment of your soul was kept hidden in the Lestrange family vault. A Horcrux, made from Helga Hufflepuff’s Cup. You have to know if it is a Horcrux in this timeline, and if so, is it here?
You approach one of the goblins working at his desk. He seems to do his best to studiously ignore you.
“Ahem,” you say, clearing your throat to gain his attention.
The goblin ignores you.
“Excuse me?” You say loudly, and in the sternest tone of voice you can muster.
The goblin looks up from his work, and down at you.
Where do you go next?
- Grincott’s Goblin Bank to see your wealth in your family vault
- Ollivander the Wand Maker to see if you can use your mother’s wand or if a wand of your own would be better
- Stowe and Packer’s on Carkitt Market to buy a magical bag or trunk
- Cogg and Bell’s Clockmakers in Carkitt Market to inquire about your broken Time Turner
- Twilfit & Tattings Clothing to ask about enchanted clothing and footwear
Or are you ready to go home now?
