them.

ground and freeze the earth underneath it, seeking out its given target. Once it reaches its target,
it will pulse with a baleful chill, dealing cold damage and freezing the feet of everyone in the
location a single time, then cease to drift.
If you have recently fled combat, then the amount of time their feet remain frozen is heavily
reduced.
Should anyone in the location with the emanation be fallen excluding yourself, they will take
passive cold damage until they stand up once more. Additionally, if they have used neither balance
nor equilibrium, then the damage dealt is doubled.

damage than if the spears had remained whole.
