Harry's P.O.V:

I remember feeling like my mind was in turmoil as I sat in the dimly lit tent. I couldn't believe what had just happened. To think that my two closest friends, whom I trusted more than anyone else, had turned against me was a betrayal that cut deep. We had been through so much together over the past six years, facing danger and adversity side by side, only for them to accuse me of withholding information about the Horcruxes. Their accusations stung, mainly because I had been open and honest about not having a solid plan. It was excruciating to realise that the foundation of trust between us had been shattered.

I can understand how hurtful it must have been for me to feel abandoned by my friends Ron and Hermione. It seemed like our friendship was never the same after the Triwizard Tournament, and it was harsh, feeling like the third wheel in the trio. I downplayed my intelligence for years and tried to maintain our friendship, only to feel they didn't genuinely value it. It's a painful realisation, but I know I deserve friends who appreciate me for who I am.

I've been keeping a secret for so long. Concealed within the pages of Quidditch magazines and other things, I devoured every piece of information about the wizarding world while hiding that I was the Heir of a pure-blood family. Sirius named me, and Blood adopted me as his Heir, acknowledging me as his childhood son, right before my parents. This was all kept hidden from Albus, who was already suspicious of me, and it worked out in our favour as Albus unknowingly kept the inheritance a secret.

I was oblivious to the duties of being an heir to Dumbledore and Weasley's, but not anymore. They will soon see me wielding my power, status, fame, and wealth to seek justice against them and anyone who wronged me. But before that, I must put an end to the snake-faced dark lord who took the lives of my parents and was responsible for the death of my godfather, once and for all.

I took a parchment and a quill to write down what I knew about Horcruxes. My determination and preparedness were evident in every stroke of the quill. I have a strong instinct that one of the Horcruxes is at Gringotts. Another one is at Hogwarts because Tom always felt Hogwarts was his first home, just as he felt for himself. There's a possibility that there's a Horcrux hidden by one of the faithful Death Eaters, maybe Bellatrix. Also, I believe he handed his diary to his other faithful follower, Lucius Malfoy. Lastly, one was destroyed by Dumbledore, which was the Gaunt ring, meaning two are already gone. My strategic thinking and intelligence are guiding me in this crucial task.

He needs to consider those two items carefully. The locket belongs to the Slytherin family, the diary is his first journal, and the ring is a family heirloom connected to his grandfather, Marvolo Gaunt. Also, Nagini is his familiar. He's ruled out making a horcrux out of Gryffindor due to his pride, so he's considering creating Horcruxes from items associated with Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw. Whenever he thinks about Ravenclaw, rumours about the lost diadem come up. Therefore, he feels Tom will use the Diadem as one of them and hide it in Hogwarts. He also plans to place the last one in Gringotts, connected to Hufflepuff, so he must contact the Goblins. In addition to this, as he prepares to take on his lordship and the associated responsibilities, he knows he needs a solid plan. This plan is a set of actions and a carefully crafted strategy to ensure his immortality and power.

Third P.O.V:

Harry was relentlessly determined to end the war with minimal bloodshed as his priority and was confident in his chances of survival. He reached out to his elf companions and the Black family elf Kreacher, seeking their assistance in a specific task.

Harry called out to Dobby, the loyal Elf who always stayed in the shadows to protect him from harm.

"Dobby, did you hear me?" Harry asked as Dobby popped into existence.
