Reaching towards the ground you can feel the pulse of the earth as your connection to it deepens. The earth moves for as you would flex a great muscle. When you finish casting this spell you can create simple objects and structures from the earth and stone within the spells range. If a creature would be trapped by the reshaped material they can choose to instead be moved to the side closest to the edge of the spells effect. The reshaped earth stays that way for the duration of the spell before returning to their base shape or crumbling in place, your choice. The objects or structures cannot take up a space larger than a 50 foot cubed volume. If you concentrate on this spell for the full duration, the effects become permanent turning all created structures and objects into mundane creations. So, for example, you could shape a large mass or earth or rock into a weapon, idol, or coffer, or make a small passage through a wall, as long as the wall is less than 5 feet thick. You could also shape a stone door or its frame to seal the door shut. The object you create can have up to two hinges and a latch, but finer mechanical detail isn’t possible.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell with a slot of 8th level or higher, the size of the cube you can reshape increases by 25 feet for each slot above 7th.
