I agree, I don't want to do anything that could hurt the city itself. The people here have enough to contend with as it is.

Well, I suppose it can't hurt to share. Although remember-- it miiiight sound a little crazy.

If we assume the compulsion spell is as powerful as it is because of the size of the physical object it's anchored to, I was wondering if a counter spell couldn't be placed on something larger.

Namely, the land itself.

[fiddlestick]

Wait you want us to enchant the entire LAND???

Do we even have the power to do that?

[overworker]

I told you it might sound crazy.

It's the only non-violent solution I could think of. And I don't know if something like that's even possible, no. But I think if we could do it together, as a group, we might stand a chance.

[fiddlestick]

Yeah, I guess you did warn us...

We should probably test it on a smaller scale first before we try to see if it'd even work. Using lots of magic can be dangerous, so we gotta make sure it's worth it.

[overworker]

At least the spell itself seems to be simple, so I think the same would be possible for the counter spell.

A test would be good, though. At least that way we'll know if it's worth pursuing.

[fiddlestick]

Yeah, it's not so much the complexity of the spell I'm worried about as the scale. There's ways to boost magic output, but if we overdid it we could all wind up in comas.

[Which, that's bad]

Right. Well if Lloyd's able to do the compulsion spell, then all we need to do is learn the counterspell and then we can do it.

[overworker]

If it's possible, maybe we could just do a section of the land if we set it up properly.

Well, its all just speculative at this point.

[fiddlestick]

Yeah, let's...keep it on the table while we keep looking into things.

[Because yes, avoiding comas sure would be nice]

[cspd]

That's ambitious.

But we don't know enough to say it's not possible.

[overworker]

I know. But I can't think of any one thing larger than that wall besides that. More than that, it would make things very difficult for them, if they wanted to work around it.

At least... it's something to consider.

[cspd]

I admit, I haven't done much studying on upscaling enchantments, especially not to this kind of scale.

But it gives us something to investigate, at least.
