Professor Kalif Styx dreaded this lesson, not because of the material but because of how loud it might get. It was going to be hell for him, though likely not for the fifth years. He stood in front of his desk, arms across his chest with one of his gloved hands holding his wand. Once the fifth years entered and settled in their seats, Styx waved his wand toward the door to close it. "As you may realize, you will be vanishing again, but with a more difficult animal than mice. I'll conjure these because honestly, collecting this many would take far too long for me to accomplish." Styx paused for a moment, and then continued, "I will be conjuring this animal for you to vanish. Conjuring is the subject for sixth years, if you pass the OWL to continue to the next level. I'll demonstrate."
With a subtle wave of his wand once he uncrossed his arms, he conjured a mallard. It walked along the floor and started to flap its wings. He intoned the spell after tapping the air, and the duck vanished, as if it never existed. "You will need to concentrate as these are larger creatures, obviously. You will not need to be on top of your duck, but it might help if you are close to it. So, stand up." Styx conjured enough mallards for the students to practice on them, and soon, the ducks started to run around the room, some attempting to take flight as well. Once the students were out of their seats, he used his wand to move the desks to the side so that there was less room for the ducks to hide. "Once you have vanished your duck, you are free to leave. There's no homework."
Assignment: RP the lesson.
