This spell, a more powerful version of the stone shape spell, allows a dwarven cleric to heal damage to an earthen structure. Once the spell is cast, the structure restores itself toward its original condition gradually over time. The spell remains in effect for as many rounds as the cleric has levels of experience. The spell heals damage to stone, earth, or metal at the rate of one point of structural damage per round. When the spell fades, it leaves behind a permanent repair (unless the structure is damaged again, of course).
If a structure is totally destroyed or demolished, the spell has no effect. The spell cannot restore a castle wall that has been battered into rubble or an iron gate that has been smashed to pieces.
The material component is a piece of clay with iron filings mixed into it, which is then shaped to resemble the original appearance of the structure to be repaired.
Notes: Very rare spell, granted by dwarven deities. (Updated from Dragon Magazine.)
