Quinn arrived at the Casanov Castle, told the security troll to tell Aria that he was here, with the dragon he had promised. It had taken five days and most of that had been getting his friend to leave him alone.It was record time, and he was proud of himself for getting it done so quickly, one arm and all. Once he had found the cliff that it had built it's nest in, all he had to do was wait for it to sleep, the rest was easy, well for someone who had been doing this for a third of their life, and had only resulted in a few minor injuries, a few cuts and bruises but nothing too bad, for which he was grateful, it got Luca away now that he knew he wasn't going to die and maybe he could use it to get in the castle and look around. He looked around at what he could see of the castle, trying to figure a way to break in.

Aria was in the dungeons, checking her poison stores and cataloging which new ones she needed, when one of the smaller trolls walked in and told her that there was a man waiting for her outside. It was probably Quinn, she thought, moving towards the stairs, or someone from the NDE.

She brushed herself off as she walked upstairs, she was wearing a emerald green short dress with a velvet outer robe and her hair was up in a messy bun. She walked out into the grounds and spotted him, the troll still trailing behind her. Before she got too close she wispered to the troll in its own language, "The caslte goes on security alert, now, until he leaves."

Then she walked foward to meet Quinn.

Quinn looked up when he heard Aria come outside. "Well, here is your dragon." He said with a smile. "Where do you want me to put it?" he asked her, waiting for her to tell him, hoping to be able to look around the yard at least.

"You can bring it around back," she said, and turned, to show him the way. "There is a lot of land back there, even a forest andI placed some extra wards so she can't fly off the property."

She began walking towards the back of her grounds, passing the lagoon-style pool and calling over her shoulder, "Did you manage to get the Vipertooth venom?"

"Yes." He said taking the vial from his pocket and handing it to her. "Would you mind if I looked around the grounds?" he asked her, "Or do you have a place in mind that you want me to let it go?".

"In the back," she said, near the forest. Just follow me," she repeated. "So," she called over her shoulder, her suspicions growing as he continued to ask about 'looking around', "How much for the venom and the dragon. Oh, and is it male or female?"

"It's a female, she usually has a mate but I never saw him, so I guess he was at a reserve. " He said taking a side look at the castle as they walked away from it. "Don't worry about it I didn't buy it so no expense lost."

"Still, I hired you for a job and now you should be paid," she said, she wasn't going to back down from the payment.

"And, if your still interested in the job offer, I have something to discuss with you, about a sort of side business, or a regular job if you aren't up to it. If your interested pass by my store in Diagon Alley."

"I think I might take you up on that. What kind of job would it be?" he asked her. Florent had said he should try to get a job in Knockturn or another place that was common for death eaters to visit, and what better than a shop owned by one?

"I own a bookstore..." she said, not mentioning of some of her new, illegal side businesses. "We can work something out," thinking of Allison's idea of the illegal animal trading.
