Day Eighteen: Neo-Mercurian Magic
Awareness of Pilgrims
Intellego Mentem 30
R: Touch, D: Conc, T: Road
While concentrating on this spell, the caster may sense the minds of those traveling along the target road. He has a global awareness of the number of intelligent beings traveling along the road, and may direct his concentration to focus on a particular mind. While focussing on a being, he will understand the reasons of the being for traveling along that road, or pursueing his current journey, along with the emotions and outlook he currently has about that journey. How much information the spell reveals will depend on how important the current journey is to him. Someone going into town to pick up a loaf of bread is much less emotionally invested in the journey than someone on a pilgrimage or an overland trade venture that might last months.
(Base 10, +1 Road, +1 Diam, +2 Road)
Safe or unsafe journey
Muto Terram 25
R: Touch, D: Sun, T: Road
Transforms a road of stone and dirt into a muddy road, making travel very difficult and slow, or on the contrary, transforms the muddy patches along the target road into solid stone and dirt that's easy to travel on.
(Base 2, +1 stone, +1 Touch, +2 Sun, +2 Road, +1 flexibility)
