Levitating a branch over to his desk, he set it down. "You can use this spell on branches, drumsticks, lengths of vine, even fabric if you needed to, to create poles. It's simplest with branches, however, and those would be the most likely supplies you'd have if you were stranded in the wood."

He levitated the branch for everyone to see. "Start with wooden poles, but as you improve, you may also be able to vary the material, which could be useful in any number of cases."

Casting a quick fixate on the branch to suspend it in mid-air, he continued. "A simple flick and Palus is all you need. Just make sure to focus on smooth, even poles."

Demonstrating, the branch, suspended in air, became a long wooden pole, not unlike one that could be used, with others, to make a tee-pee.

"Practice both spells and after some time, we'll move onto the final."
grabbing his twig and placing it on the table with a flick of the wand "Palus" the twig stretched in to a pole but looked more like a pool cue,thinking to his self to focus he tries to do it again "Palus"as the twig stretches it keeps going at 10 ft it stops looking this time like the pole that a pole vaulter woud use
