Silvia retrieved a pot and a pair of goggles. She put the goggles and her dragonhide gloves on, then glanced at the instructions on the board:

1. Charm pot to heat itself.

Okay, she thought. I can do this. She took a deep breath, pointed her wand at the pot, and concentrated on the spell. "Chaudensis," she said as she rotated her wand in a circular motion. She waited a moment and then removed one of her gloves and touched the pot. The pot seemed to be getting warmer. Seems good so far, she thought, then double checked the board for the next step.
