Talk:Tom Riddle's wand

I have been wondering, while re-reading all seven books lately: How exactly does Voldemort re-acquire his wand when he is restored to his body? As far as I am aware, he has his own wand with him when he kills Lily and James Potter, and he is destroyed in the attempt to kill Harry. He is forced to flee resembling something like a ghost or a vapour-ish substance, so it seems impossible that he can have transported his wand with him. And I don't believe any Death Eaters manage to turn up in Godric's Hollow before the Order of the Phoenix show up and save Harry (I believe Hagrid is the one who pulls Harry from the ruins of the house?). I would imagine Albus Dumbledore, if not anyone else, making sure that Voldemort's wand is secured - it can't just have been left there in the ruins. And from that point I can't remember any mention of it until Voldemort shows up in Little Hangleton in book four and has his wand presented to him by Wormtail (if memory serves). What happened to it in the meantime?

Any thoughts on this? Am I missing something? Wizendraw 18:25, 4 November 2008 (UTC)
