My name is Tom Marvolo Riddle, the heir of Salazar Slytherin. I am considering on making this book a Horcrux. I am willing to answer any questions, even from muggle filth like you, to preserve the soul of m...
Pottermore26 asked: "What inspired you to make the horcruxes? And why did you make them?" ~•~•~•~•~ *owl arrives at your window*
Dear Pottermore26, I first came upon the term horcrux when I was reading a book called Magick Moste Evile. The idea of a horcrux fascinated me, but the book did not provide me as much information that I needed. I asked my Potions professor, an oblivious but, I admit, a rather intelligent man named Horace Slughorn. I am quite a favorite of his, so it was no surprise that he told me everything I needed to know.
As for your second question, I made these horcruxes to ensure that I live forever to restore the legacy of the great Salazar Slytherin among a world that has become so accepting of muggles to taint the blood of the true wizards and witches that were our ancestors. Honestly, I am afraid of death. When I am dead, I am powerless. When I am dead, I will lose everything. Everything that I have worked so hard on and everything I achieved will be all for naught.
If you are interested in making horcruxes of your own, I suggest you read Magick Moste Evile for a basic understanding of it, available in the Hogwarts Restricted Section.
Sincerely Yours, Tom Marvolo Riddle
