A Horcrux is an object in which a person has concealed part of their soul. But I don't understand how that works, sir. One splits one's soul and hides part of it in an object. By doing so, you're protected, should you be attacked and your body destroyed. Protected? That part of your soul that is hidden lives on. In other words, you cannot die. And how does one split his soul, sir? I think you already know the answer to that, Tom. Murder. Yes. Killing rips the soul apart. It is a violation against nature.
