How this ritual is learned is decided by background/story or campaign. Ritual is performed during the new moon on the Prime Material.

* The [Familiar](http://dnd5e.wikidot.com/spell:find-familiar) has the statistics of the chosen form, though it is a fey.
* Harnessing the moving water around you, this Familiar is able to cast [Shield](http://dnd5e.wikidot.com/spell:shield) on you 2 times per long rest. 
* Range of [Shield](http://dnd5e.wikidot.com/spell:shield) becomes 10ft when the [Familiar](http://dnd5e.wikidot.com/spell:find-familiar) casts in this way.

* To be damaged by this ability, targets must be within 60ft of caster.

At 6th level caster may choose to make this Lightning damage after the 1st round.
