Still Choir: sound and silence (Hush, Echo, Veil).

- Healing
- Calm
- Assist
- Echo
- Control
- Hush
Control spells work on the enemy's clock: knock it back (Repel), slow it (Linger), silence its special attacks (Hush), or stop it outright (Prism Snare). Repel is unchanged from the prototype.
From Spell Set › Control
Hush into Toll: the enemy is silenced while the delayed blow lands.
[ ] Several shapes may be confused by the recognizer and need a check on device: the Keepers' loops (Toll, Hasten, Linger), the Still Choir's short strokes (Hush, Calm, Listen), and Gale against Squall.
What happens: the bell tower has no bells, and something in it has been repeating the monks' signs back wrong. The echo glint copies the player's last spell and casts it back at them one turn later. Calm (Wen taught it at the listening stone) clears what it lands; the trick is to cast cheap spells for it to copy. After the fight Wen teaches Hush and Echo, hand over hand, and then asks a favour in signs: carry a letter to Lanternfall. The Still Choir is the one faction that quietly trades letters with the Facets. If the player has already met Iver, Wen's letter is addressed to Sorrel the unbinder.

- Main line or optional
- Optional
How much optional magic ships in Act 2? The Spell Set tab puts twelve optional spells here. Recommend: main line plus Tally, Drift, Table Mend, Root and Hush first; the rest later. VEL-60 decides.
The Crack (60% to 25%). Its chest plates crack and show the warp inside. Hits to the chest during a stagger do double damage: stagger it with Repel or Bulwark (Repel into Facet Seal), then Bevel Lash or Toll. Every 12 s a Warp Pulse does 20 damage that ignores shields; Hush stops it (if learned in Act 2).
