It is the coracle spell you will be repeating over and over for the game later, so this is slightly less important for that. But I expect you all to take it just as seriously."
Placing another stick on the ground, Isabelle flexed her arms and pointed her wand at it. "Ta-lea!" She drew a horizontal line in the air, finished with a little loop at the end. The small stick began to stretch in length and width, one end of it becoming broader and flatter than the rest. Once completed a paddle was in it's place. "See? The wand movement is a line and loop, as if you are drawing the shape of a spoon in the air." That made sense right? They could visualise a spoon. Well, as long as they didn't create one.
"If there are no questions, you can go ahead and try this spell too. Or carry on for a while to get your coracle just right." Issy smiled and stowed her wand back in it's holster. She was done with it for now.
OOC: Again, I'll be off to bed soon, so please make sure you read all IC instructions and follow them. Next post in about 15 hours or so.
Right. Now on to paddles. This should't be too hard, should it? Hmm. First things first, Ella walked over and grabbed another stick. Bringing it back to her spot, she placed it on the ground and stared at it for a moment.
That's right, little stick, you're going to be the best paddle ever. Mhm! Now to practice.
Without removing her wand, Ella held her hand out and began to trace the spoon shape into the air. Right. A horizontal line with a loop at the end. Not too difficult. She did this several times, making sure to concentrate on what she wanted to appear, which would be a strong and sturdy paddle.
Next, Ella decided to work on the incantation. This was extremely important as well.
"Ta-lea...Yup. That's it....Ta-lea...Ta-lea...Ta-lea..." Heh. That wasn't nearly as hard as the first incantation. Thank Merlin! Now it probably made sense to try the movement and the incantation together, yeah?
Holding her imaginary wand once again, Ella traced the spoon shape into the air and,
"Ta-lea!" TA-DAAAA! Practicing completed. Now to move on to the real thing.
