Whispering Wind is a delicate divination spell that sends a message riding upon the gentle currents of the wind, a spell that turns the breeze into a messenger. As you hold the feather or leaf, it becomes a talisman through which your words are given to the wind, sent forth on a zephyr that carries your voice across great distances.

Upon casting Whispering Wind, you whisper a message of up to twenty-five words. The words are caught by the wind, transformed from mere sound into a traveling wisp of air. This message is borne on the breeze, traveling up to a mile to a specified location. The journey of your words is guided by your intent and the magic of the spell, navigating through forests, over hills, and around obstacles, as if the wind itself knows the path.

The magic of the spell ensures that your message is heard only by those at the specified location, emerging as a soft, ethereal whisper that seems to come from the air itself. The wind gently delivers your message, its words audible to all present at the destination, but it is as fleeting as a passing breeze, heard once and then gone.

Whispering Wind is a favorite among messengers, spies, and lovers separated by distance. It is ideal for sending warnings, instructions, or heartfelt words across the landscape. The spell's utility lies in its subtlety and reliability, ensuring that your message reaches its destination without the need for physical messengers or magical scrying.

However, the spell's range and accuracy are influenced by your familiarity with the location and the current wind conditions. While the wind is a faithful carrier, it is also a free and unpredictable element, and the path of your message may be altered by strong gusts or changes in weather.

Whispering Wind is more than a mere spell of communication; it is a poetic union between the caster and the natural world, a testament to the ancient bond between humanity and the elements. In its casting, one finds a harmony with the spirit of the wind, an understanding of its capricious yet gentle nature. The spell is a reminder that even in a world of stone and steel, the old ways of wind and whisper still hold their power, carrying words and emotions across the miles with the softest of breezes.
