Phew! That was sometimes difficult! The Put-Outer or the Deluminator belongs to Dumbledore, but in DH, Ron inherits it. So does it belong to a Hogwarts student? Most of the time it belongs to a professor, but we know Ron as a student, yet, after inheriting it, he doesn't go back to Hogwarts. Then again, officially he is still a student, only he is at home with an illness, which, of course, isn't true. So how was I supposed to answer this question briefly and correctly? Also, it is possibly a unique object, but we do see others with it, and not only Ron, but also Mad-Eye, who borrows it from Dumbledore in OotP, but it doesn't mean that he owns this object. And then - does Dumbledore tell Harry about this thing? He doesn't really, but if I answer with a simple no, it might give the impression that Harry never learns about this thing. However, Dumbledore mentions this object in his will and Scrimgeour reads out Dumbledore's words to the Trio, so indirectly, he still hears about it from Dumbledore. Well, I'm glad you have solved the puzzle anyway! 20 Questions (Vol. VII) - Page 12 2752390508

Congratulations, Choices! I'm looking forward to your puzzle now.
