SEMIDEUM PERHIBEMUS

d e m i g o d

----------

        DRACO was shocked to say the least. When he decided to come to America he had expected that the wizards would be... different. But, this was far beyond anything he could have imagined.

        The customs in America were a complete zoo -literally. Goblin children ran amok with fairies chasing after them. A curious niffler was swinging from a---rather unnecessary---chandelier, with several golden pocket watches hanging off of her. To top it all off, there was a rather large creature trying to surpass the 'Exotic Animal Control' desk whilst wearing an gaudy green top hat.

        Suddenly he could understand the historical event caused by Newt Scamander coming here. New York certainly did seem like a place for these wild acrobatics.

        Spotting a taxi, he quickly climbed in, glad for the extension charm he had kept in his 'briefcase'.

        Then off he went, ready to seek out the only cure for his beloved Astoria.

---

        Suffice to say New York was not leaving a good impression on him.

        He deadpanned seeing the woods with an old chipped sign, deeming the property a strawberry farm. What did people do when they saw the children here, doing---more or less---child labor?

        Shaking off his nerves and donning several protection charms Draco walking forward, certain that this plan would work.

        It was simple: three steps to success.

        One: discover the connections and strength within their land. Of course he wouldn't arrive and leave without making a few allies that were not restrained by the Statue.

        Two: obtain their trust. This was rather like the first-he needed allies, but he would prioritize Astoria above all.

        Three: retrieve the sacred fleece. If he could only borrow it for a few minutes, it would be enough to cure Astoria. If Daphne felt the need to use it he could care less-let her travel all the way around the world for a few strands.

        Yes, he was aware that this was highly illegal, and yes, he knew it would upset Astoria should she find out.

        Stretching his arms again, he strode towards the rather obvious illusion and shielding charm and-

        He tripped flat onto his face.
