Patroclus didn't understand why everyone was so scared.

The Lion could not have been more excited!


Jumping up from his haybale, the boy started to dance on the spot, his hands in fists, shaking around his head like marakas! "We're going in the forest, We're going in the forest! In the forest!"

Yeah, he was pretty excited.


Gripping his wand tightly, Patroclus was pumped, he wanted to get this spell perfected quickly, so that he could get into the Forest faster!

Circle and X

Circle and X... he had the wand movement down into an artform, it felt really natural to him, perhaps this was to become on the best charms in his arsenal.

Circle and X, "Luxra Magnifica!" he decreed, his enthusiasm blending with his determination, as the spell shot from his wand and reached the light source of the lantern, Patroclus had to sheild his eyes, the light was blinding!


Before he was a second sun, the light from the lantern was so bright he could see the insects in the grass that had come towards the warm of the fire, "Woah!" he whispered shocked by the awesome power of the spell.

Wiping around he directed his wand at the shadows of the forest, and called again "Luxra Magnifica!"

The darkness that clung so heavily to the trees, began to creep beyond the boundary of the treeline, plunging his lantern into darkness, till it was only but a weak flicker in the dark


"This is wicked!"

Patroclus loved this spell!
