This spell is a part of the Currents of Time spell chain and is found in the Currents of Time rune stone.
Time flows. This is the most fundamental truth of the element, not that it can be stopped or reversed or controlled with perfect precision, but that it moves, constantly and in one direction, carrying everything with it. What was spent is behind you now. What was lost stayed where it fell. The current moves on and does not return what it took. Unless someone reaches into it and redirects it.
The praeteriamancer learns early that the currents of time are not as fixed as they appear. They move, yes. But they can be nudged. A small redirection, a gentle pull backward against the flow just long enough to recover something the current carried away. Not everything. Not even something specific, necessarily. Time does not take requests. When this spell is cast the caster reaches into the currents and pulls. What comes back is determined by the current itself. Roll 1d3: on a 1 the current returns Vitality, on a 2 it returns Soul, on a 3 it returns Power. Whatever flows back, it does so in the amount of 1d12 plus the caster's Arcana, the caster's own attunement to time magic shaping how much they can draw from the redirected current. The caster cannot choose what returns. They can only open the channel and accept what the current brings. Time, as always, decides what it is willing to give back.
