Draco had come by to inform his leader that he and the other five recruits would study in the library. The leader had looked up from his book and told his second in command to pass on that they all be dismissed before he stood up and walked out of the great hall towards the academy's Headmasters office. He said the password once he had reached the Horntail, went inside and put back the book his houseelf had retrieved for him earlier while putting the bundle of parchments he had brought with him organized at his desk. Thereafter he sat down to think things over while wandlesly conjuring a roll of parchment and inkless quill from midair. After thinking for a few minutes he wrote down a todo/ tothink list.

- Meetings should not be on the same day for security reasons.
- When education starts everyone needs to be aware of the rules - Preparations for education needs to be worked out before halloween.
- Must come up with a way to get the owls in.
- Must check if the house elfs are with enough when everyone stays in here - Must create schedules for education

The young leader looked up from his paper and adressed the portrait. 'Salazar?'

'How can I help you, young Heir?'

'I asked someone to buy me ten owls for the owlery, but how do I get them here while no one is permanently living here?'

'Ask a house elf. They have other transportation methods that are not harmful for owls as Apparition, flooing or portkeying are.

'Ah, thank you, I have some more questions if you have time..'

'Of course, anything.'

'How can I make sure everyone get to know Academic and Order laws?'

'Set up a course for it.'

'Then I'll need a course book.'

'There are student and staff lawbooks in the Library. You can duplicate them or use the device in the staffroom to create your own course books, whether you compile it or write your own.'

'Great. Anyway, what courses do you think should be started first? I plan on starting education during Christmas break but I can't make the schedules to tiring since students need some spare time to take rest too.'

'Primary should be Duelling, Curses, Integration, Aiding, and General Dark Arts'.

'What is Aiding?'

'Aiding is an addition to duelling which is used in a warlike situation. Where normal wizard duels consist of one wizard versus one, often with seconds, duelling in a war situation is different. Often whole parties fight for their lives against other parties. Duels are fought never fair, meaning that two wizards can cast at one, and in such situations it is important that the party help eachother survive as much as possible. That is the art of aiding, which is, if I'm not mistaken also partially educated at the auror training courses. Aiding includes magical first aid, meaning learning quick healing spells, but also, strenghtening a spell cast by another wizard by casting a spell which aids the current spell. It is a verry difficult art, but worth learning especially since dark wizards will early or late have to deal with aurors.'

'That is very interesting information Honorable Founder, but who can teach us such a subject, if we do not have an auror within our member ranks?'

'There is a good coursebook on the subject in the Library. A more experienced dueller would be able to pick up things easily and would be able to through trial and error learn less experienced duellers the art. Anyway, you should read Secret Academy Vol III if it comes to setting up courses and needing course material, its all in there.'

'Thank you Salazar, I just have one more question, We are still with few people, the Ashwinder House and the Boomslang house have only 2 to 3 members in it. Should I start out courses collectively?'

'The Ashwinder and the Boomslang house would probably more interested in the integration course, while the Runespore house would prefere forbidden potions. But if there are to few members, for instance when you need some members to teach the courses, it would be best to do classes collectively, as even Runespores can learn from the integration courses.'

'Thank you for your good advice, Just one more question. Am I allowed to duplicate the Secret Academy volumes and disguise them as Hogwarts Coursebooks and take them out to reed in main Hogwarts? I cannot stay too long here else I raise suspicion.'

'It is better that no Secret Academy material leaves the academy because of security reasons. Also, I would also be careful with any other illegal things you might have out there. I suggest you store them here since house elfs might ahem accidentally come across them and tell the headmaster.'

'Good you mention it, Salazar. I suppose I have to tell the other members also, but if they bring it here, they must have a private and secure place where they can store them.'

'I can set up the passwords for each house. Every house has private dorms for every member so they may pick out one and install their ownn passwords on their dorms for extra security measures.'

'There are too much people in here to emerge now, I think, they might be as scared as Hell if they see you. I suggest doing it during night time, but two of our members have announced they would like to make use of the Library tonight. Do you have any way to know if there are people in here?'

'Yes, I have enough portraits who can tell me. What passwords should I install?'

'Let me think.. What about Avada Kedavra for Runespore. Belladonna for Boomslang and Dementor for Ashwinder. I dont think tha the Basilisk House needs a password as of yet since no one is in the house.'

'It will be done. Pass on to your followers that they have to choose a dorm after tomorrow, that they have to put a drop of blood on the door after saying the password. The heads of houses have their seperate private quarters as well as your advisor and your second and any other staffmember or teacher. 'I will prepare those rooms tonight and leave instructions on how to reach them on your desk.'

'Thank you Salazar, I will be going back to Hogwarts to show my face. Expect me to be back tomorrow morning after breakfast.'

Af the founder nodded Harry stood up, pulled of his uniform, and left the office to head for the Academy's exit to Snapes Private lab.
