Oh, brilliant. I love the way Voldemort has disassociated himself from "Tom" and how he is never satisfied with the world around him. Perfectly in character. I especially love the way he only feels truly alive when his soul rips open from a murder.

Highly intriguing. I like to delve into backstory myself when it's not given canonly, and you've done a brilliant job with this.

This is just magnificent, truly. Your command of language, your ability to evoke an emotion with few--but so well-chosen--words, are enviable in the extreme. I'm especially appreciative of how realistically you've captured the interior of Voldemort's mind, his motivations and madness, which is not all madness.

Bravo!
