You see, eavesdropping is good.

So that’s where the dragon’s heart came from! Well, of course it came from a dragon, but it was important to know that the beast’s internal parts were being put to good use. Like…giving them super human strength! Still, he will be needing to owl Mordred after this. He just…well, needs a little bit of consolation. Two kilograms of dragon heart just for one bottle of super strength? Wowzers.

Now onto the second step.

Ethan got his wand, made the correct wand movement and casted “Incendio!” as he pointed at the bottom of his cauldron. Nice, the fire was. “Faaaiiiaaaahhh.” He turned the heat to high, then stepped up to the front with his knife, tray and wand as he eyed the huge chunk of dragon heart. The young Slytherin mused as to how Mordred would have handled the situation if he was there. “He’d probably cry…” Ethan cleaned the scales in front of him, as well as his knife and tray before proceeding. As soon as he was done scouring those, he placed the brass weights on the other side of the scale and mentally added each weight until it reached 2000 grams. Once he was done, he started to cut up the heart one piece at a time and placed it on the other plate of the scale until the needle in the middle told him that it was already balanced. Smiling to himself, he carefully placed the cut up dragon heart on his tray, and placed all the brass weights back to its proper place. Oh, and of course. “Scourgify!” he said as he pointed at the used scale. “Clean as I go!” he smiled to Professor Culloden and hurried back to his seat.

Noooooow.

He peeked inside his cauldron and carefully placed the pieces of dragon heart inside it. “You will be missed, dragon sir.” Sniff.
