Five days. That’s how long the old fool had endured torture after torture. Voldemort made sure to extend every curse over the limit of the wizard’s pain threshold just to withdraw at the last second within an inch of his death. He was kept chained to the high ceiling at the center of the room surrounded by an isolation wall, which Voldemort lifted from time to time exposing him to the searing flames of the Fidelity Charm. He would wait for the fire to consume his flesh and his screams to die out before raising the walls back up. Then, Voldemort would reenervate his lifeless form and proceed to inflict a repertoire of his darkest hexes.
