This spell is a part of the Deconstruction spell chain and can be found in the Deconstruction rune stone.
The seniumancer is learning. They have seen what The Fade can do when it is unleashed broadly, the burst of rot that stripped armor and flesh without discrimination. Now they are discovering something different about it. That The Fade can be precise. That it does not always need to take everything, that sometimes it can be directed toward one specific thing and asked to dim only that. The voice is where the seniumancer begins this lesson.
When this spell is cast the seniumancer reaches through The Fade toward the target's throat, not broadly, not with the indiscriminate hunger of Deconstruction, but carefully, finding the narrow passage through which sound travels and asking The Fade to still it. The Fade responds with a quietness that the seniumancer finds instructive. It does not struggle with the precision. It simply settles into exactly the place it was directed and dims what it finds there. The target opens their mouth and nothing comes out. No words, no warnings, no screams, no grunts - nothing. The silence is complete for the duration. Magic in Nor'Ova does not require words, so spellcasting remains possible. But communication, coordination, calling for help; all of it gone. The target is an island in the middle of the battle, unable to reach anyone with sound. The seniumancer notes this result with quiet interest. The Fade, it turns out, is capable of remarkable things when asked carefully.
