Mind Comprehension

This spell is a part of the Transference spell chain and found in the Transference rune stone.

Language is, at its foundation, a pattern. Sounds or symbols arranged in a system that the mind has learned to decode into meaning. The mentimancer understands this - that meaning itself is not bound to any particular arrangement of sounds. What the mind actually wants is the meaning beneath the pattern, and that Dream is very good at finding what the mind actually wants.

Mind Comprehension reaches through Dream and opens the mentimancer's mind to the patterns of any language they encounter. This spell is not teaching them the language, not storing it for later, but translating in the moment, meaning arriving as naturally as if it had been spoken in their own tongue. Any language spoken or written within range is understood completely for the duration. The mentimancer cannot speak these languages in return - Dream has opened a door for reception, not transmission, and the mouth still knows only what it has been taught. But to hear someone speak and understand every word, regardless of what words they are, that alone is an extraordinary thing.
