In recent years, scholars of the Nightfall have rediscovered this ancient technique of drawing an opponent into the a pocket of the Void. This spell draws both caster and target there for the duration and initiates combat between the two. Within this timespan, there is no escape but death.

A planar barrier against Void is a perfect defense against this spell, as is a certain divinely-granted invocation of freedom. A person who is anchored to the earth will not be entrapped, either. When the target is immobile, the caster will be sent to the Void alone.

After the spell is over, both caster and target, or the corpses thereof, will be returned to the place the spell was cast.
