Pale Forest of Shadows
A dark veil covers this ancient forest. Trees tower into the
darkness, their bark a pale white, the color of bone. Black
leaves sway in a moaning breeze that creaks its way through the
forest. Far above, the moon shines down causing the forest to
move and shift as if it were just a dancing shadow. Deathly pale
faces flicker for a moment in the moon's light, only to vanish
into the depths of the woods. A cold chill creeps into your
bones, as something seems to whisper to you to run.


(Magical) (Glowing) A celestial circle is inscribed upon the ground.
(Magical) (Glowing) A thaumaturgic circle is inscribed upon the ground.
(Binding) Lashing its tail around like a whip, a black abishai devil squats here.
Zadok is sleeping here.
Silonas is here.
Out of the darkness shambles a howling animal running on two legs.


I can't dismiss devils? That doesn't sound right.

Maybe it falls to game balance but message is still wrong.

When you summon them, you bring them from their plane to yours. When you dismiss them, you send them back to their plane. If you are already on their plane then dismissing them wouldn't send them anywhere.

What about simply changing the idea of dismissal from "sending the creature back to its own plane" to "sending it some other plane than you are currently on," which seems like it would be more suitable to a conjurer's needs.

I believe his point was he was in Organia, land of dreams. He was not in Hell.
