This spell reaches into a target’s mind, questing for the path the target follows inward to Astral Space. Once there, the spell seals the path shut and makes it impossible to find or follow.
For the spell’s Duration, the target is incapable of entering Astral Space. People affected by this spell who are already in Astral Space can continue to explore it and travel between astral strata, but no one affected by the spell can cross the Astral Threshold until the spell ends.
