Summary
The consequences of tampering with the soul are not limited to the dark magic of Horcruxes. The wizarding world is fraught with other sinister forces that prey upon the soul, leading to outcomes just as terrifying. Among these, Dementors stand out as one of the most feared creatures, embodying the very essence of despair and hopelessness.
Unlike Horcruxes, which represent the deliberate, self-inflicted damage to one's own soul, Dementors attack the soul from the outside, draining you of the very life force that makes you who you are.
And this got me thinking- what happens to your soul AFTERWARDS? Do you BECOME a part of that Dementor? Or are you banished to a shadowy abyss with other victims of Dementors?
Today we're going to be discussing that, and more, as we tackle the topic of SOULS (and what happens to them).
