Lili hadn't really spoke with Dristan since the Graveyard adventure, and the events they discovered in the hidden journal. Not even since finding her estate. The thought of buying the estate after such events seemed trivial. Was it worth it? Would she lose it in the end? Could she risk it?
SHe had the realtor send her proper paper work and it was tucked into a yellow folder. She hugged it tightly to her chest as she made her way to the DADA Class and Dristan's office. Walking into the classroom she go to the office door and knocks.
"Dristan? Are you in there?" She asked softly.

"I am Lili come in." Dristan calls out looking at a huge map he had put up in his office. He had marked where the isle was from the map in the journal on his desk. There was also a black shadowy rose in a glass container on his desk thay he had enchanted so it would never disappear.
He walks over to the desk and looks at the map in the journal and walks back to the map on his wall making minor adjustments to where the isle is supposed to be on the southern coast of England.

Lili walks in through the large door and looks at the spread on the desk. "Still trying to figure out the isle" She asked softly. She comes in shutting the door and walking over to look at the giant map.
"When do we plan to go look for this Isle....I can't exactly leave school all willy nilly now" She sets the envelope on a chair near the desk. She was iffy on if she wanted to even bring up the idea of the estate now; it felt...wrong almost.

"It will happen on first holiday. Due to you not being able to leave the school." Dristan shook his head a moment and grabbed his wand.
He turns away with his back to Lili as he plces the rip of his wand to his eyes whispering the remove emotions spell. The black smoke enters his eyes as he lowers his wand and sighs.
He notices the envelope and takes it opening and reading as he sits down. It was for her estate purchase in Essex.
"Do you still wish to purchase the estate?" When he looks at her she would see a slight black smoke in his eyes then it vanishes.

She nods to him about going on the first holiday. She sits there watching him a moment before he reaches over to take the envelope from the chair.
"I honestly dont know Dristan. When everything we found out about all of this....It feels...wrong almost. I dont know what to think about it- or do. I love the estate. I love the grounds and it's essentially what Raven has been wanting to show me since we were paired together."

"It seems due to Raven you have been selected to become the guardian of the ruins." Dristan whispers. He pulls out his ink and quill and begins signing where he needed to.
"That is enough for me to know that this is right for you. You are doing something special." The spell was starting to take full effect. His voice was becoming stern and distant and his eyes no emotion in them.
He slides the envelope to her. "The funds will take a week to transfer for the purchase."

"A guardian of the Ruins....You really think thats what it is?" She asked softly. "But what about everything that needs to be done with the family... Dristan, if it.." She pauses noting the change in him. She sighed. He'd used the spell again. "I thought you two were going to talk....and work things out. Did it not go well...?"
She didn't want to push but she was worried about him. When he slides the envelope back she looks at it. "Would you mind sending them when you get your free night away from the castle? I can't exactly send it by Owl...He already things im odd.."

Dristan glances at Lili. "Her and I talked. There is a lot still that needs to be talked about." He did not say anymore as he slid the envelope back to himself.
"Do you want me to mail it to him or meet with this realtor?" He nods.
He rubs the back of his neck. "Please do not question me why I am using the spell. All you need to know is that it helps." Another sigh.
"Anway....what are you going to tell your parents about christmas time?"

"Of course there is...I just..." She drops it.
"If you meet with him, you'll be able to see the place. You could see how beautiful it is" She nods to him at the mention of the spell and leaves it alone. She didn't like it. She hated not being able to tell what was going on with him.
"What is there to tell them? Im an adult the end of October. I dont even know what i'm going to do over Christmas- Unless you and I are planning to try and find that Isle."

"Yes you and I are going to the isle on holiday." With the spell active in him he could not lie. "Just tell them you will be with me in New York." Dristan nods.
"I will meet with the realtor then and get everything situated for you and Raven."
He pauses a moment. "We need to start setting our affairs in order just in case we.....we do not return." He whispers.

Lili nods to him. "Then that's what I tell them" she says with a nod.
"Affairs....like what. I stepped into,this role and family, what affairs could I possibly have?"

"As matriarch you need to announce your successor. Just as I need to announce mine. A new will needs to be written as well for you and I. Distribution of estates and wealth muggle and magical." Dristan whispers.
"All of these need to be done before qe leave during Christmas." A piece of parchment is now placed on his desk and a special enchanted quill is pulled frohis drawer.

"This is no one else to take up being the Matriarch...You have Dmitry- But Matilda is so young. I wouldn't do that to her" SHe sighs and leans against the desk. "Are we crazy for doing this Dristan....Like Loco beyond belief that we want to try and do this alone..."
She watches the quill and parchment appear and runs a hand through her hair.
