Bloom
8-level Conjuration

Casting Time: 1 hour
Range/Area: 1 mile
Components: Verbal, Somatic, Material
Materials: a silver acorn worth 500 gp, which is consumed in the casting
Duration: 1 year
Damage/Effect: Utility
You plant a silver acorn in solid ground and spend an hour chanting praises to the natural world, after which the land within 1 mile of the acorn becomes extremely fertile, regardless of its previous state. Any seeds planted in the area grow at twice the natural rate. Food harvested regrows within a week. After one year, the land slowly reverts to its normal fertility, unable to stave off the march of nature. Choose one of the following effects, which appears and grows immediately:
- A field planted with vegetables, ready for harvest.
- A thick forest of stout trees and ample undergrowth.
- A grassland with wildflowers and fodder for grazing.
- An orchard of fruit trees of your choice, growing in orderly rows and ready for harvest.
Living creatures that take a short rest within the area of a bloom spell receive the maximum hit points for Hit Dice expended. Bloom counters the effects of a
Desolation spell.
Ritual Focus. If you expend your ritual focus, the duration becomes permanent.
