"Fawkes. He burst through the window, and his tears have healing power, so he shared his gift. Let the tears fall into your mouth, your blood turned a lighter color but it was not enough. The blood kept coming out. Fawkes kept crying, giving you tears and minute by minute the black veins pulled back, but it was not enough, it stayed in your heart. The moment Fawkes stopped giving you tears it started to spread again. Dumbledore found us and he gave you a cut over your ribs with a special knife, all the black blood spilled out. After a few more tears the curse was gone, your blood red again. You stopped bleeding and Poppy could heal you. You have a scar from the knife, it was infused with magic."
