CHAPTER 6

I spent the rest of my time going to the library and practicing the Chant of Time. It finally paid off when it became Experienced at the end of the two ten-days. I worked out the chant and learned stop. It would completely freeze something in place for a single second. With this I could target a weapon and cause an enemy to lose his grip or disorient them as everything seemed to leap forward by a second. The thing that was stopped was also immune to damage. So I wouldn’t be able to stop something and kill it in that state.

While I could use slow on a weapon, it wasn’t sudden enough to break ones grip. I had experimented with this and it was always better to target the monster or person rather than the weapon itself. For something like the yeti, stop would have been helpful. I tried it on myself and I couldn’t tell I had been stopped. There was no blackness or loss of time.

If I didn’t know I had cast the spell and was paying attention to minor things that were moving about it could have been easy to mark it as a mental distraction. It was more expensive in terms of mana, but I was pleased just to be making some progress. It also made whatever was stopped invulnerable as far as I could tell. If I had sank my sword into the yeti and used stop on the sword it might have cut itself apart.
