This spell is a part of the Time Ripple spell chain and is found in the Time Ripple rune stone.
Fate is not always gentle. The posteramancer knows this better than anyone - they have seen enough of what Fate holds to understand that the light symbol of future magic is not a promise of good outcomes. It is a promise of destiny, which is not the same thing. Destiny can be difficult. Destiny can be costly. The Final Hope does not pretend otherwise. What it offers is this - one moment, singular and complete, where Fate commits entirely to the survival and success of those the posteramancer has chosen to protect. Not a nudge. Not a favor. A declaration. Fate reaching through the posteramancer and saying, without qualification, that these people are meant to get through this.
When this spell is cast every ally on the battlefield is washed in Fate's full blessing simultaneously. Vitality, Soul, and Power are each restored to their maximum. Every negative status effect is lifted. Every curse is broken. Every wound closes. Every debuff, every penalty, every accumulated damage of the battle is undone as Fate insists that none of it was supposed to end here. All allies receive +2d12 to all Power stats (Offense Power, Bow Power, Runic Power) for the duration as Fate's endorsement moves through them, and all checks are reduced by one difficulty level - Fate clearing the path for what was always meant to happen.
The caster receives none of this. Not a point of restoration, not a single bonus, not one benefit of what they have just given. The cost of asking Fate for this much is absolute. For the duration of the spell the caster cannot use magic of any kind. No spells. No runic manipulation. Nothing. They stand in the middle of the battlefield they have spent the entire fight trying to control, stripped of every tool they have ever relied on, and they wait.
They hope.
For the posteramancer who has always known what was coming, who has always had the answer before the question was asked, who has never had to simply trust - this is the hardest thing Fate has ever asked of them. And they do it anyway. Because they already knew, when they cast this spell, that their allies were going to need everything they had. They just hoped it would be enough.
