I've just released a new Moon Mage spell "Read the Ripples" [RTR] on Premium preview.

This is a Stellar ritual spell that requires 50th circle, Seer's Sense and 2 spell slots.

"Read the Ripples is a lunar ritual built on a pattern unlike any other known to modern Moon Mages. Regardless of the oddity of its origins, the ritual has been proven to be safe, yet finicky. Those practiced with the ritual claim that it opens one's mind to the whims of Fate."

In short - as long as you maintain the ritual you it will select objects for you to observe and let you bypass the telescope and observe timer checks as long as you follow along with what it wants you to observe. It also doesn't mix well with Teleologic Sorcery.

There is an exhaustion period of about an hour after each cast that should message you when it ends.

Please let me know if you encounter any problems and how you feel about the spell in general. It's a bit of an oddball but people seemed excited about it while I was working on it so hopefully it lives up to expectations.

Remember, as a Stellar spell to learn it permanently in the future you will need to complete a quest so I strongly recommend taking advantage of this preview period while it is available.

Also many, many, thanks to Grejuva for a rapid and thorough QC (He also braved QCing the quest too but you'll meet that later).
