In a flash of foreknowledge, you spot an oncoming attack with enough time to avoid it. Upon casting this spell, you can move up to half your speed without triggering opportunity attacks. The attack still occurs but misses automatically if you are no longer within the attack's range, are impossible for the attack to hit, or can't be targeted by that attack in your new position. If none of those apply but the situation has changed—you’ve moved into a position with cover, for example—then the attack is made under those new conditions.
