I had just comeback from my run, my clothes were dripping wet from sweat and I needed a shower pronto, this run was like any other, I caught the sunrise which was gorgeous as ever but I didn't find anyone else today by the lake, again nothing new, the weather was treacherous, but nothing a swing of 'calorium Aequabillis' would fix.

'calorium Aequabillis' is a spell that kept your clothes Warm and cozy even in the harshest of colds, and I'm proud to say that this is one of the first spells I invented.

I know sounds unbelievable, but it was a freak accident to be honest, I mean I had intended to invent a charm for keeping warm, since it would help the homeless and the poor drastically and also because I don't do cold, no ma'am, not in a million years. But I didn't think I would actually succeed. But last year, I succeeded I actually did.

so yeah, I was experimenting with the hot-air charm, in my home back in Portugal, during my summer vacations. The hot air charm is basically a charm that is used to release jets of hot air out of the caster's wand, but I wanted a charm that lingered, didn't need constant concentration and was uniform throughout not just jets or streams of hot air. So I experimented with wand movement, incantation and motive, which are the three main ingredients to a spell.

so I switched up the wand movement first, instead of going 'complicated and vigorous wavy' (which is expected of the hot-air charm) I took a full circle around myself pointing my wand downwards obliquely. Waiting for a result. Did I get the result I wanted, of course No

And me being Iohmra For merlin's sake had created a full blown wind tunnel. A WIND TUNNEL. around myself

I was thrown into the air and I stayed there amidst hot jets of air holding me up, it felt like my skin would peel away from my face, the impact was too much to take, But as soon as I lost concentration on the spell, I hit the ground, the fall wasn't too bad, it was just a few feet, but damn it hurt my arse. While I was rubbing the pain of my back from the fall it suddenly struck me.

It struck me that the spell followed the hand movement and the incantation, I mean that was obvious, but the reason I had a ruddy wind tunnel scare the wits out of me, was because I took a full circle spinning around and of course I generated streams of jets of hot air around myself tunnelling me. Moreover the incantation meant heat. Uncontrolled heat. So it had nothing to do with a constant spread of warmth.

After my research on incantations and their meaning I changed the incantation to 'calorium aequabillis' which meant constant or consistent heat. So it was more controlled this time, and well quite uniform instead of random jets of air exposing my nickers.

for hand movement I went with a simple point, not necessarily leading the spell to manifest in any particular direction, but just to linger throughout. So again I tried it on some clothes this time I went in and fetched few of my pj's and got to work. I kept my distance I was not interested in another trip to 'dangling-a-few-feet-in-the-air-And-falling-butt-first'.

I pointed my wand at my clothes and loudly and clearly said 'calorium Aequabillis' while trying to fill my mind with a thought of me being warm and cozy. I expected my clothes to be torn to shreds in the least, but nothing of that sort happened. I reached down for my pj's that I had put on the grassy ground, and voila!

they were warm, they were snuggled by the fireplace with a mug of hot chocolate kind of warm. And it felt even and uniform. I had actually done it. That was my first spell, of course at first, I didn't let anyone know, except my dad and Sylvia, But I made sure people knew the spell but didn't have them know I invented it, especially those who couldn't keep themselves warm, during harsh winters. By which I mean the homeless and the poor.
