Earthen Stonework

You choose a portion of earth or stone that you can see within range and that fits within a 6-foot sphere. You manipulate it in one of the following ways:

• If you target an area of loose earth, you can instantaneously excavate it and sift for stone, and move the stone across the ground up to 5 feet. This movement is not fast enough to cause damage.

• If you target an area of solid stone, spend one turn to excavate a chunk of stone. You can move this chunk across a surface of stone up to 3 feet for five turns, and suspend it in that space at the end of each turn. At the end of the final turn, the caster may choose to weld it to the surface.

• You can compress up to a full 6-foot sphere of earth into any object that can fit within the 6-foot sphere. The resulting object weighs as much as the stone used to condense it, and will emit enough heat to cause 1d6 fire damage when unprotected contact is made. The object will cool gradually over the course of 6 hours, at which point it will be safe to handle unprotected.

You may only cast one instance of this spell at any given time. The material component is not consumed when casting.
