Liliana - Rots away rope bindings

If he’d known just a bit more, paid slightly better attention to the mages with whom he’d worked or the few lessons he’d received, he might’ve known just how quickly simple magics could be worked; might’ve realized how thoroughly he was being played when Liliana intimated that binding and gagging would prove anything more than an inconvenience.

  The necromancer had rotted the ropes away to sludge before Semner had even departed the house—a fact concealed by Kallist’s own spell, a minimal phantasmagoria that made the bindings appear as solid as ever, even shifting and rustling with the captives’ movements.
