Duration
Up to 2 hours

You touch a creature and grant it a measure of protection from death. For the duration, the first time the target would die as a result of taking damage, the target instead remains alive with 1 unfilled Consequence slot remaining. If the spell is still in effect when the target is subjected to an effect that would kill it instantly without dealing damage, that effect is negated against the target, and the spell ends.
