Patronus Potion
Chapter 17
Patronus Potion
The result of the patronus potion causes a viscous of your patronus to appear above your cauldron in a billowing, often times, colorful silhouettes of smoke. Shaman wizards used patronu's to contact one another in dire emergencies, but to conjure a corporeal patronus had always been a difficult and advanced magic. The shamans believed that this potion assisted their journey on successfully conjuring a patronus. However, it wasn't until recently though the keen mind of Albus Dumbledore that patronus' can be used a means of communication. Hundreds of years ago, the shaman only had the patronus to send out, and hope that another shaman wizard would see and follow after it. It was through this that the muggle Shamans believed in ‘spirit guides’ because they witnessed a wizard’s patronus travelling back and forth.
