Description

The triggering creature teleports to an unoccupied space you can see within 15 feet of you and regains 4d8 + your spellcasting ability modifier hit points. If there is no eligible space or the creature declines the effect, its position does not change and it still regains the hit points. The spell does not restore a creature that died instantly. This spell has the Sol Titan Spell Tradition but neither the Fistbound nor Manifestation tag.

At Higher Levels. The healing increases by 1d8 for each slot level above 5th.

Titan Spell Tradition. Sol. Only a Summoner attuned to Sol can prepare the spell through this tradition. This spell bears neither the Fistbound nor Manifestation tag.

Velvet Court Devotion. Solynth. Solynth’s servants teach that rescue is an offered hand, never a debt. In devotional performances the saved companion ceremonially gives back the thimble.

Devotional Rite. A willing rescued creature may speak a short expression of thanks as the spell resolves, and the caster may reply without using an action. Neither speech can compel future service or create a new Favor resource.

  • Veiled Effects. The restored creature may stand from prone without spending movement after the spell resolves.
  • Unveiled Effects. If the spell saves another creature from unconsciousness during a real encounter, you may gain 1 Arousal after it resolves; if you do, the creature may reduce its Arousal by 1. Alternatively, spend 1 Libido when casting to let the target move another 10 feet immediately without provoking opportunity attacks. These enhancements do not stack.

“A promise to return is a bridge the darkness cannot burn.”
