 The displaced water remains stable, allowing for safe interaction — it can be touched, collected or tested without disrupting the spell's effect.

This water can be entered at will.  In the case of rivers and streams, the spell redirects the current from one side of the path to the other, ensuring that water beyond the spell's influence continues to flow normally without causing a backup or flood.

 To cast the spell, the initial end of the passage must begin at a shoreline or riverbank, ensuring a natural point of entry. The spell removes all residual moisture, preventing travelers from sinking into mud or silt, but it does not alter the underlying terrain. Any exposed cliffs, rock formations, deep chasms or impassable surfaces remain obstacles, requiring careful navigation.

-'''Part water''' creates a path through water, providing a dry surface on the bottom of a [[Lake |lake]] or [[River|river]] upon which individuals can walk, or even ride mounts.  According to the area of effect, the water on either side of the path is driven back in held to distance outwards and downwards as indicated.
+'''Part water''' creates a clear, walkable path through a [[Lake|lake]] or [[River|river]], exposing the dry ground beneath. This passage allows individuals to walk, ride mounts or transport goods safely across bodies of water without becoming submerged. The spell forces the water outward and downward, holding it at bay for the duration of the effect according to the area of effect defined by the caster.

-To effect the spell, the initial end of the affected area must touch the shoreline or bank of the water to be crossed.  Although the spell eliminates all moisture, so that travellers won't be bogged down in mud, there's no change made to the actual terrain underlying the water.  Thus, the spell might expose cliffs, impassable stone walls or huge boulders and stones — as well as the expected gravel and sand.

-Additionally, the water is not "dammed" by the spell, causing rivers and streams to back up; instead, the usual flow of water is transferred from one side of the path to the other, so that outside the spell's effect, a river or current flows normally.
+If the spell's duration expires while travellers are still within the passage, the water collapses instantly, restoring the body of water to its original state. Anything within the path at that moment will be fully submerged unless they reach the shore in time.
