Yeah, that’s exactly what we’d both want, but right now, there isn’t a solution that we’re aware of.

The Black Book’s spell which infuses an object with a soul also makes it completely immune to damage unless you also destroy the soul as well. That’s why the various figurines of the Ministry Mares are virtually intact despite being from before the War. The piece of Rarity’s soul attached has preserved them through the centuries.

We haven’t discovered any way to transfer souls, and considering the malice of the Book, chances are doing so would have some sort of sadistic price attached anyways. And neither of us thinks it’d be worth digging that tome up to see if it survived a point-blank megaspell.

So.. we wait. And I will wait here with Her, till we find a way. I promised.
