The Room of Requirement

After dealing with Voldemort and wrapping up his research into the Deathly Hallows, Anduin finally had time to take care of a few odds and ends.

Of course, these so-called odds and ends were still related to Voldemort and Haierbo.

First, regarding Haierbo, Anduin had judged from the clues available that he might be somewhere in northern Russia, on a small island near or within the Arctic Circle.

To that end, Anduin hired a group of European bounty hunters and sent them to the area with Fear Sensors to investigate.

After all, there were far too many islands in that region. Anduin had specifically searched through Lockhart's memories for what he knew about the witch.

But those memories hadn't yielded much useful information. They only let Anduin determine a general area.

Searching the entire region himself would have been far too much trouble, so after weighing his options, he decided to hire others.

It wasn't very honorable to put the bounty hunters in danger, but before posting the job, Anduin had made sure to emphasize the risks and offer an especially generous reward.

The results showed there were plenty of desperate people in Europe. Within just a few days of posting the job, more than ten wizards had accepted it.

Anduin could only silently wish them luck.

Aside from following up on the clues about Haierbo, Anduin's main priority during this time was finding the remaining Horcruxes.

The first one he set his sights on was the [Diadem of Rowena Ravenclaw], kept inside Hogwarts.

Following the information in Voldemort's memories, Anduin went to the Tapestry of a Troll Clubbing Barnabas the Barmy on the Seventh Floor of Hogwarts Castle.

Across from the tapestry was nothing but a bare stone wall. Anduin specifically used Magic Sense, but still couldn't detect anything
