[pnpgm] practice Akasha then cast

[Alex Koponen]

Z'leyra decides to practice Akasha seven more times to get to the skill 
level needed for the distance into the past she must go so over the next 
two hours she will demonstrate the spell at EL0 for any interested at 
her uncle's house. The demonstrations are of who handled various objects 
(cups, silverware and similar objects). To do so, using her wand she 
first casts Purification EL0 then again using the wand casts the EL0 
Akasha and describes who (if any) handled the item in the last two 
weeks. this she does for seven items.
[This should use 28+7=35 mana to get the 28 xp to improve her skill in 
the spell to EL7.]
She will then take off her Chalcedony necklace and hand it to Arawn for 
temporary safekeeping. Then keeping more than a dozen feet from Arawn 
Z'leyra will cast thru her wand a Major Illusion of a doghouse with a 
funny looking beagle lying on his back asleep on top of it. After it is 
cast she motions Arawn towards it and the illusion should vanish when 
Arawn gets within 10 feet of it. She takes the Chalcedony necklace and 
puts it on again.

"Fremea. A favor if I may. Could you observe these proceedings and let 
us know if other magics are used? Particularly if it would interfere 
with my castings or items."

At the appointed time she and whomever goes with her arrive at the site 
of the burnt workshop/house. She again explains what she plans to do and 
offers the deputy and whomever he brought with them the chance to 
examine her wand and ring which she plans to use to assist in her spell 
casting.

After given the go ahead by the deputy, Z'leyra will then cast (all thru 
her wand) the Purification for the Ward Pact at EL2; the Sidh 
Purification EL2 for the Major illusion; the Ward Pact at EL2; (she 
hands off her Chalcedony necklace to Arawn to keep more than 10' away) 
then casts the Major Illusion at EL2 to complete the Ward. Then she pays 
the 10 mana points to put the Ward in effect.
[The intent she puts into the ward is that any time an Akasha spell is 
cast in the area it will trigger a Major Illusion that will be somewhat 
transparent and show  what is revealed by the Akasha spell. No more, no 
less.]

After the ward is set and verified by the deputy, Z'leyra will cast 
(thru the wand) the Purification EL0 for the Akasha, then the Akasha at 
EL7. She will first observe the week just past, up to the present 
moment, then quickly go back to the last day that the workshop/house was 
still standing in good shape, then she will observe the last day 
standing through to when the investigators are through looking at the 
burnt remains.

Afterwards she retrieves her necklace and checks to see what the 
deputy's reaction is.
