[pnpgm] speech re spells

[Alex Koponen]

When folks have assembled at the remains of the workshop/house Z'leyra 
holds up her hands for silence then states:

"While I have suspicions about the cause of the fire that killed my 
father Tiren, I do not know what will be revealed when I cast the Akasha 
spell. To make the spell results visible to all, instead of a vision 
restricted to just the caster, I will first cast a Ward that will use a 
Major Illusion spell to reveal in somewhat transparent form whatever is 
seen by any Akasha spell cast in the area. Before each of these spells I 
will cast a Purification spell to improve the chance of the spell 
working and to decrease the possibility of an abysmal failure.

While important for the Ward and Major Illusion spells the Purification 
is vital for the Akasha spell as the books warn that ANY failure with 
the Akasha spell will be absymal. Abysmal failures are known for a 
variety of unpleasant results, mostly dangerous to the caster. To get to 
the skill level I now have I have used both Purification spells and 
items I have enchanted to improve my ability to cast spells safely.

Since Akasha is a Balance Magic spell and Balance Magic does not have 
the Illusion spells I will need to use magic from a different field of 
magic. So to demonstrate a breadth of knowledge, for the Ward I will use 
my shamanic drum to focus myself [at EL2] then go to the center of the 
area in question where I will cast a shamanic Purification [ELmax] 
followed by the shamanic Ward. Then I will put the Major Illusion that 
will show the Akasha revelations, into the Ward via the Sidh Elder 
version of the Major Illusion spell after I cast the appropriate Sidh 
Purification [ELmax].

I will then back out of the area and allow the Deputy and whoever he 
designates to examine the Ward. When they have had enough time to make 
their examination I will go back to the center, cast Balance 
Purification [ELmax] then cast the Akasha spell [EL7]. You are all 
invited to watch the results, but try not to obstruct the view of others.

When looking into the past I will first glance through the last few days 
to see who has been to this site since I arrived and then I will 
backtrack the site to the time when the fire occurred. Then I will go a 
bit further back to see the origin and cause of the fire and what Tiren 
and anyone else present was doing at the time. I will then follow the 
scene until the fire is out and the neighbors have gathered."
