For Hill, whose spiritual power far surpassed that of mages of the same level, Elminster's spell was actually quite useful.
Controlling these light orbs was easy for him, and with Hill's high perception, he could mobilize the light orbs to intercept danger before it occurred.
But he had always been hesitant.
After all, the representative figure for this spell, Elminster had made countless enemies across the Ferun Great Land; using this spell against foes was akin to attracting hatred.
The university in Silvermoon City made this ninth-level spell available for purchase to help share some of the hatred directed at Elminster's students.
Otherwise, walking out with a halo of orbs might attract all manner of weapons or Divine Arts from the sky.
Although the spell had spread, the rarity of a ninth-ring spell also created another situation.
For many in the Evil Faction, the spell now meant either a perpetual enemy's student or a fat target ripe for robbing.
