“Incanti mor privum!” I don’t know how he did it but Tristan was standing tall after his little fall and at his words the house resumed it’s normal state of being and I cautiously got to my feet.
“What was that?!?”
“That?” Tristan turned to look out my window and he was grinning at me when he turned back around, “That was no beginner spell.” When I looked puzzled he gestured for me to look out the window.
“No…”
