Creates the appearance of some object that appears to the eye to be no larger than the span of one’s hand, which must be fixed to the surface of the earth.

The cantrip will therefore not create any object in the sky, nor any creature. It can be made to appear, however, that there is a natural or constructed feature in view, such as a lake, pond, forest, city, castle, tower and so on that can be seen.

The object can appear to be quite close — for example, a gatehouse at a distance of one hundred yards would be about the size of one’s hand.

Creatures who attempt to move towards the object will find that it continues to hold its presence until they are closer to the object than to the illusionist, in which case the object will vanish.

The duration will last so long as the caster concentrates—and though creatures closer to the object may see that it is false, creatures closer to the illusionist will continue to see it so long as the caster continues to concentrate.

Creatures well versed with the area are entitled to a saving throw at +4, a success indicating they know the image is an illusion.
