Aurora awaited the answers she would receive on her posed question and the two students that finally spoke up certainly didn’t disappoint. “Aye correct Mr. Atreyu-Rehman and Mr. Grunt…that is precisely what Ferula does,” she confirmed with a nod as she tapped the blackboard to reveal the description she had previously written down for the class to see. “More formally referred to as the Bandaging charm, it helps keep a limb, both arms and legs, immobilized to better allow one to be able to get to a healer with less discomfort where it can be actually treated. Thus living up to the Latin meaning of Ferula which is a rod” Though technically more in reference to the vegetables that are shaped like one like carrots and such rather than metal or wood like one would expect. It was such veggies that were often used by Romans to create their own walking sticks and muggle splints.
“And aye, it is a spell in the conjuration branch of transfiguration as it creates out of thin air. “ No switching or changing from something else. And now they were going to practice the spell so they were ready for the end of class. Taking out her wand the transfiguration moved to demonstrate the casting without the incantation at first. “It’s wand movement is one stroke downwards, then turning to draw a small hump. Kind of resembling a lowercase h. And it doesn’t have a light so don’t expect one. ” Instead you simply saw the conjuration spell at work to know you had done it correctly. Showing it a few times she added the drawing and phonetic spelling of the incantation on the board before facing the class once more.
“Now for a few minutes I want ye to practice it one yourself. I suggest on a leg so it’s easier to aim.” Rather than dealing with your non-dominate arm freezing up when the spell took force.
“Ye can cast a simple finite to end the spell to try it more than once or when ye or satisfied with yer work. When everyone is good with the spellwork we’ll move on to our class activity.” One that she was sure most if not all of her students would enjoy…and why they were outside of course.
ooc: Sorry about the delay. Had some comp issues. We'll move onto main activity late Tuesday.
