The core of Salazar Slytherin’s wand (Pm).
- Isolt Sayre stole Slytherin's wand from her Aunt Gormlaith Gaunt before she fled to Massachusetts on The Mayflower (Pm).
- Years later when Gormlaith arrived at Ilvermorny school to attack Isolt's family, she uttered a single word in Parseltongue which made the Basilisk core of the wand fall into a "sleep," rendering it as useless as a stick. But the same word wakened the Horned River Serpent cores in the wands of the Boot brothers, and their wands suddenly made a "low musical note" as a warning sound, alerting them in time to help fight off Gormlaith Gaunt (Pm).
Commentary
Notes
The implication of the Basilisk horn core is that the wand could hear and understand Parseltongue.
