Description

By casting zone of silence, you can manipulate sound waves in your immediate vicinity so that you and those within the spell’s area can converse normally, yet no one outside can hear your voices or any other noises from within. This effect is centered on you and moves with you. Anyone who enters the zone immediately becomes subject to its effects, but those who leave are no longer affected. Note, however, that a successful Read Lips attempt can still reveal what’s said inside a zone of silence.

Focus: The caster’s instrument.
