Whenever Hermione wasn't busy with Draco in some way or another, she was busy going through every book she could get her hands on in the Restricted Section. So far, she had found everything she could on Horcruxes, what they were and how one made them (she still shuddered at the thought, and wondered how such a book had even ended up in the Hogwarts’ library, even if it was the furthest back of the Restricted Section) yet nothing about how specifically to destroy them. There had been vague references to objects lost in history and time that were said to be able to destroy such evil creations. But short of travelling back in time and fetching a supposed Gilded heirloom from any number of high-ranking wizard nobles some several hundred years ago, she was still at a loss on how to actively destroy a horcrux in this century.
