If there's one thing Baldovino can't bear, it’s pretty assistants who sooner or later end up leaving him for tin pot Apollos. So he thought he’d stumbled on a real treasure when he retrieved Quasichoco from the Old Quarter in Balgenheim. But unfortunately he could only make him work if he plied him with chocolate which ended up being far too expensive. So finally, Quasichoco cut him a deal. If he gave him all the chocolate he wanted, in exchange he would happily be chained up in a cage at the entrance to the big top where the public could revel in his gargantuan greed.
