Riddle Manor’s Riddle

Chapter 7 Riddle Manor’s Riddle

Dear TMR,
I found out something neat today. I found that if I wish really hard I can see things where I am. I can see you. I keep hoping that you can see me when I do it but you never do. It’s been over a month since you left me. Do you think about me at all? I know I think of you every day. I had a visitor today. Yep someone besides the bad man came to see me. He had this funny measuring tape with him. It moved on its own and everything! Just like magic! It tickled when it was against my arms. Then he gave me a little stick to hold.
He seemed to think that it was suppose to do something. Isn’t it funny of him? He looked very sad when it didn’t do anything at all. He put it quickly back in his bag then handed me several more sticks to see if they did any thing. I think he wanted me to play a game with him. I wish he had told me what he wanted me to do. I would have tried to please the funny man with the sad eyes. He was nice to me.
He gave me a lollipop when he was done with the sticks. It was cherry! I was so excited! You know it’s my favorite! Then he asked me what my favorite color was. So when I said blue he smiled so sadly again. The next thing I knew I was waking up in a bed with a pretty blue blanket on top of it! I know it was rude to fall asleep on the sad man but I didn’t meant to! You must believe that I wouldn’t be rude on propose.
But while I was sleeping I had the oddest dream. It felt so real. I was standing in the parlor in Riddle Manor. I could see lilac walls mother painted when I was very small. And the deep wood floor was freshly cleaned. It was so very weird. I walked over to the wall opposite to the fire place and Mum was there. She held my hand as we stopped in front of the family tree.
You know how much I love staring at it seeing how we all came from someone so very long ago to the two little branches that were you and I. The last members of our family, and I noticed something odd about the family tree. There was a branch off of my name.
Sephonie Willow Dumbledore-Riddle. What along name for a kid huh? I thought it was weird. But it was pretty. I looked up at Mum and she looked so sad. How did I make Mum sad? She told me that had to cut my hand and press it to her name. Yucky! It was so odd. I did it without even thinking twice!
You know I faint if I see blood!
Then the wall glowed funny. The words that appeared on the bottom of the wall weren’t a name.
“To end the dark’s reign you must look beyond name.
Within the power of life, knowledge is grows. While the dark hides within the light and discord sows,
The power to end the reign of the dark lord comes through tragedy wielding the swords of protection for the knowledge, which shall be the key
The swords shall be incomplete until the key of snakes joins with true bonds to the raven and the lion swords then the path shall the worthy see
The answers to this RIDDLE lie within Hermione”
