==On the road==
Visible only when used, this artifact appears as swirling disk of orange light about the size of a target shield. Close examination reveals it to be a cluster of thousands of tiny lights, swirling in tight formation, which can be used to block incoming shaping attacks. As a weapon, it attacks less well, but when brought to bear, the lights separate to infect the target.

|-
When cast as a spell, the lights separate and grow, swarming over a large city or inhabited area of up to 100,000 people. Extremely disturbing to the inhabitants, the lights will persist, causing all in the area to abandon the area. This takes place over several days and is reasonably orderly, people drifting away in small groups. For a year and a day, the lights remain, discouraging any from returning. Those who have Wits + Essence greater than the caster's Stealth are immune to this work of glamour.

As the climb the winding road, they see a cloud of dust on the valley road, obviously a large number of horsemen moving swiftly toward Watch Valley.

While doing no damage, it stopped the terrestrials, but not their mortal soliders. After eavesdropping enough to hear the head of the column say "there is the new spire, just like he said", Guen returned to the circle, where they vascilated between two theories about why the Wyld Hunt might be there. They reasoned that either the commotion caused by the eristrufa impersonating a solar led them to the Lap and the eristrufa somehow gave them a trail to follow or that someone from the town of Watch Valley witnessed the rebirth of the solar manse and made their way to the Lap to inform authorities.
|-
| colspan="2" | Either way, the circle elected to continue, though Gutts pined for his "Welcome to Guttstopia" sign and portraits. Eventually, they hit upon the idea of concealing their trail, which Regret can do quite well.

*''Vision Consorting with the Dead'': an abyssal sorceress with a history with Regret and the circle
*''Callous Disregard'': a dusk-caste with big sword
*''Unfortunate Interdiction'':
*''Vexes at a Distance'': a stealthy day-caste bowman.
*''Periwinkle'':
*''Gumela, the Jeweled Autitor'': a second-circle demon summoned by Vision.

A rousing fight follows, with Gutts being seriously hurt early by an armor-ignoring arrow from the concealed Vexes. Cruxis, about to be thrown off the bridge by Periwinkle, grabs her and jumps off. Figuring Periwinkle would grab hold of part of the bridge to save herself, Cruxis planned on grabbing her, but a shot from Regret's spear knocked her unconsious in mid air, leaving Cruixis to use her as a springboard to leap to a handhold.

Visible only when used, this artifact appears as swirling disk of orange light about the size of a target shield. Close examination reveals it to be a cluster of thousands of tiny lights, swirling in tight formation, which can be used to block incoming shaping attacks. As a weapon, it attacks less well, but when brought to bear, the lights separate to infect the target.

When cast as a spell, the lights separate and grow, swarming over a large city or inhabited area of up to 100,000 people. Extremely disturbing to the inhabitants, the lights will persist, causing all in the area to abandon the area. This takes place over several days and is reasonably orderly, people drifting away in small groups. For a year and a day, the lights remain, discouraging any from returning. Those who have Wits + Essence greater than the caster's Stealth are immune to this work of glamour.

During every scene in which the spell is in effect, a section of stone wall up to 100 cubic yards appears within the area, usually slowly building a ring around the perimeter.
