When Voldemort dies in the films, he disintegrates into thousands of pieces and blows away in the wind. And when he dies in the books, his body falls with a mundane finality—revealing something far more fitting. In the end, there is nothing grand or mythic about his death at all. He simply… dies.
But in the end, neither depiction of his death answers the real question. His body might fall or crumble, but that tells us nothing about what truly became of him. Not the man, not the flesh… but the part he tried hardest to protect. The part he mutilated in his quest for immortality. His soul.
Today we’re going to be unpacking this further and taking a closer look at what may have happened to the most mutilated soul in wizarding history.
