Voldemort's Three Prerequisites for Resurrection

It wasn't surprising to Ryan that Voldemort planned to resurrect in Azkaban and even use it as his base.

Firstly, since becoming a wizarding prison in Britain in 1718, the Ministry of Magic has used specific spells to keep Azkaban hidden and unmarkable in the Muggle world.

Over the centuries, thanks to the Ministry of Magic's continuous renovations, every brick and railing in this prison is covered with magical traces. With just a few modifications, Voldemort could make this prison so inaccessible that even wizards couldn't find it, as if it were another world.

Secondly, its interior is engraved with a sophisticated Eternal Undetectable Extension Charm to ensure it can accommodate all the criminals in Britain.

This fortress-like prison has an astonishingly large interior space, and even includes a cemetery specifically for burying those who died of despair.

Therefore, the remains of wizards were buried in this prison.

This perfectly fulfilled one of the conditions for Voldemort's resurrection.

Third, Azkaban was built in the 15th century and was originally just a fortress inhabited by an evil sorcerer who called himself Ekstasis.

This wizard lured Muggle to his island and then tortured them to death.

This wizard's magic, combined with the negative emotions of these dead Muggle, gave birth to a disgusting Dementors that feeds on pleasure and souls.

After Ekstasis died, the Concealment Charm he used in the fortress and on the island became ineffective.

The Ministry of Magic only learned of the island's existence at this point. However, the Ministry of Magic dared not destroy the fortress, lest it offend the Dementors.

For the next two centuries, the Dementors multiplied freely. After the International Statute of Secrecy came into effect, this fortress should have faced destruction, but the 17th-century Minister for Magic, Damocles Rowle, prevented it.

He also pointed out that using small wizard prisons is impractical because prisoners trying to escape often make conspicuous noises, smells, and lights.

Furthermore, building a dedicated wizard prison on the remote Hebrides Islands would be time-consuming and labor-intensive.

Thus, under Rowle's influence, the Dementors race, whose happiness had gradually ceased to multiply due to the lack of fresh souls, found a new source of joy—the happiness of living prisoners and the souls of dead prisoners.

This practice has continued to this day, for four centuries.

The accumulated negative emotions over these four centuries, along with the ancient Dementors, perfectly fulfilled the remaining two conditions for Voldemort's resurrection.

Fourth, starting in 1717, anyone who uses any Unforgivable Curses on another person will be sentenced to life imprisonment in Azkaban (unless there is sufficient evidence that the caster used the Unforgivable Curses under the influence of the Imperius Curse, or that the caster, as Auror during the First Wizarding War, received special authorization from the Ministry of Magic).

This law resulted in a situation where, even after Arthur Weasley removed minor offenders, the number of serious offenders in the prison remained considerable.

In Voldemort's eyes, these prisoners were all reserves in his already small and insignificant Death Eaters group.

But Voldemort didn't expect that while he was frantically trying to recount the history of the prison to avoid a sudden attack by Dumbledore and his companions, the Death Eaters he had given wands to wipe out all the prisoners.

In Ryan's view, Voldemort's choice of this location was not only due to the four reasons mentioned above, but also because it was a desperate measure to undermine Voldemort's plans.

In the original timeline, Voldemort initially intended to accumulate magical power over time, then choose a wizard as a vessel to possess, and finally resurrect himself.

But the appearance of Quirrell and the Philosopher's Stone made him take a risk, because the Philosopher's Stone could resurrect him in a more powerful form, and if he failed, he would just be an animal in Albania for a while longer.

Because of Harry's power of love, Voldemort failed.

This failure should have kept him out of the spotlight until Harry graduates.

But Peter Pettigrew's appearance gave him a wizard as a servant, and Bertha Jorkins, who angrily gave away her head out of curiosity, brought Voldemort news of a Death Eaters was far superior to Peter.

Voldemort, who was temporarily possessing Peter, successfully controlled Barty Crouch and found Little Crouch.

This gave him a new idea: to resurrect his father using the blood of his enemies, the flesh of his servants, and the bones of his father. This method wasn't actually within his considerations—it was too weak.

However, Harry Potter's blood can restore some of his strength and help him overcome the power of love within Harry after being resurrected through this ritual.

Next, Voldemort, having overcome his weaknesses but still needing time to recover his strength, lurked in the back, using Fudge and Dumbledore distance.

In the world that Ryan changed, Voldemort lost his composure and certainty of victory. After escaping by draining Quirrell's magic, he actually chose to consume the life force of the Death Eaters to temporarily restore his strength.

They also set their sights on the Elder Wand. Unwilling to have his daily life disrupted by Voldemort, Ryan Reynolds intervened, Fenrir Greyback, the second consumable item, was reduced to ashes.

Voldemort was reduced to the state he was in before he met Quirrell.

It is impossible to forcibly possess the wizard again and turn him into a consumable.

At this point, Voldemort should have retreated to the Albanian Forest to gather his magical power. But perhaps it was fate, the reckless Voldemort appeared before the Death Eaters Walton Macnair suddenly found the courage to try and control Voldemort like Quirrell had.

As a result, Voldemort tearfully accepted the new body.

He then gathered his former subordinates, preparing to negotiate peace with Dumbledore and wear Dumbledore down over time, without resurrecting him yet.

But Grindelwald reappeared and destroyed his temporary physical body again.

But this time, just like with Quirrell, he extracted Macnair's magic.

In this way, he can forcibly possess someone else again.

The younger version of him, Grindelwald, Harry Potter's potential, Dumbledore's existence led Voldemort to decide to give up.

So he chose Azkaban.

This was a plan he had thought about many times, and even Harry had seen it.

The reason he didn't use this method after extracting Quirrell's magic was...

Actually, this also has a major drawback: firstly, his base would be fixed in Azkaban for a year.

Second, although he was resurrected using four centuries of negative emotions and Dementors, as well as a large number of wizard skeletons, he may be resurrected in a stronger form.

But the ceremony takes too long, about a year.

If Dumbledore manage to breach Azkaban during this time, he will suffer even greater damage due to the failure of the ritual.

By the time he recovers and can forcibly take over a wizard's body again, Harry Potter will probably already have grandchildren.

Thinking of his disastrous defeat, Voldemort solemnly recited a long incantation before his men, whom he had taught how to reform Azkaban.
