<P> Ron had been guided back to them by the Deluminator , indicating that Dumbledore 's gifts may be more useful than they thought . Hermione identifies in Dumbledore 's book a strange symbol also worn at the wedding by Xenophilius Lovegood . They visit him and are told the symbol represents the mythical Deathly Hallows , three objects from an old fairy tale titled The Tale of the Three Brothers : the Elder Wand , an unbeatable wand ; the Resurrection Stone , able to summon the dead ; and an infallible Invisibility Cloak . Although Ron and Hermione are skeptical , Harry believes the Hallows are real and could explain the visions of Voldemort he has been having over the past few months . He suspects Voldemort is hunting the Elder Wand , won by Dumbledore after defeating Grindelwald , believing it will allow him to overpower the connection between his own wand and Harry 's . Harry believes the Resurrection Stone was inset into the ring horcrux that Dumbledore discovered the previous year , and may be hidden inside the Snitch Dumbledore left for him , but he ca n't open it . The description of the third Hallow also matches that of his own inherited Invisibility Cloak . Harry 's suspicions are confirmed when he has a vision of Voldemort breaking open Dumbledore 's tomb and stealing the Elder Wand from within . </P>
