Silvia got into the new position. She had decent balance so it wasn't too hard. She raised her hand.

"I too think it is the caster's intent that really determines if the spell is dark. Some spells are just labeled dark because of how they were commonly used in the past and the fact that they can cause harm. But many of them can also be used for defense or even practical purposes. For example, the blasting curse could simply be used on a large boulder that is blocking your way, so long as everyone nearby stands far enough back to not get hit; and the leglock and body-bind curse could hinder someone from running off somewhere dangerous."
