"Keep trying. Practice makes perfect." Medea nodded encouragingly before moving the class along.



"Everyone! You're attention please!" Medea waited until their attention was up to the front of the class before continuing. "We'll be moving onto the next shield. I'd like you to at least practice this one for a few minutes, even if you don't feel comfortable with the Impiriano shield yet. I believe it was Miss Campbell that defined the effects of the Loricatus shield, but for those who did not hear..."

"Loricatus is a temporary self armoring invisible shield, quite useful against exploding, severing or...puncturing spells. When I say self armoring, I do truly mean, you wear it like armor, close to your skin. You may not be able to see it, but you will be able to feel it. If you've done the spell correctly, you'll feel a weight against your skin. The weight is not so restricting where you can't move, but this will feel more as if you're wearing an extra layer of clothing."

She paused to let them process this for a second or so. "Practice can result in a lighter feeling shield, and so will the range of the spell. This is not an easy shield to cast over one's entire body, so you shouldn't feel frustrated if this doesn't happen right away. You should expect to achieve it over your hand or arm for now if you have not already practiced before." Had any of them? Medea would have been quite pleased to hear of any reading ahead in their school books.

"Does anyone know the wand movement of this spell?"
