Description: | The original Saesordians were pioneers in the days of the Seven-Pointed Star, purveyors of arcane knowledge who were sometimes accused of employing demonic counsel. With this spell's resurfacing, it has been theorized that it was responsible for the Saesordians' catastrophic mood swings and other uncivilized behavior which, in the end, drew the ire of an empress and changed history forever.
The Holy infusion of the Pattern of Direction, the Compass surrenders some part of the sorcerer's Targeted Magic faculties to a living concept. Although it does not manifest the creature into physicality but merely connects, this is nearly as dangerous. The fates of the two beings convolve for a time, and Nomad lore is filled with warnings against such unions. | |
Effect: | Significantly reduces time to full targeting prep, makes SLS multi-hit | |
Example Messaging: | Following a momentary suspense, seemingly whimsical images of Elanthia jumble together, flashing by your eyes. As the entity of contempt coils about your prophetic talent, you begin to experience paroxysms that jerk your attention in quickly changing directions.

Small chance for instant lock on targeted spells
Small chance for starlight sphere double strike
Small chance of spell recasting itself when it originally fades. Messaging: The conceptual entity which has been occupying your connection to the Plane of Probability reasserts itself! You still feel the same burning hate toward all as before.
Third person view upon cast:
The whole world, including yourself, pivots in quickly changing directions, seemingly centered around Player who remains unmoved by the turmoil.
When the stomach-turning radial shakiness halts, you notice he has tilted his head attentively, listening and nodding.
