The Sosarian spell Prayer has a range of effects intended to save a desperate mage from perishing.
Spell Description[edit]
Devised during the earliest Age of Darkness, the effects of spell vary greatly, calling for divine aid that manifests itself in various spell effects. By the time of Ultima II, these effects had consolidated in a deity coming to the cleric's aid, destroying the nearest enemy in a dungeon.
After that time, the spell fell into disuse.
