Whirlwind Spell

Whirlwind Spells are powerful elemental spells used to conjure a contained cyclone of wind.

History
Merlin used a whirlwind spell to drive off Kanen's men during the Battle of Ealdor (The Moment of Truth).

When Morgana found him searching her hovel for the Fomorroh controlling his mind, Merlin (disguised as Dragoon) engaged her in a magical duel. Morgana initially appeared to emerge victorious, but Merlin gathered his strength and summoned a devastating whirlwind that sent Morgana flying, rendering her unconscious (A Servant of Two Masters).
