Duration: Permanent

There are two uses of this realm spell.
The first is to quicken the ripening of crops. A crops such as wheat or another grain crop will grow, ripen and be ready for harvest all within a single day. The seeds for the crop must be sown first of course. What this does is allow a second roll for taxation in the effected province.
Example: The Roesone province of Caercas (4/1) will now produce 2d4+2 in taxation for the domain turn effected. This is a possible extra 5 GB for an expenditure of 1 GB.

The Second use of this spell is completely different. It enables the caster to grow large areas of woodland. If the spell is cast in an area of woods they will expand and regrow. The new trees grow in one day what would normally take 25 years, and the spells effect can be extended for additional 3 days, although the growth rate slows to 5 years per day. The priest casting the spell can alter the area of effect so that the woodland will grow where he wishes. This would enable the priest to grow trees around a castle to cover the approach of an advancing army, or use a similar effect to prevent mounted units from charging his troops.
