The Weeping Silence

Created by Shadow3444

This enchantment compels absolute silence upon those who speak falsehoods, creating an otherworldly hush that prevents their words from being heard by any listener.

Those bound by this magic find that only truthful statements can pass their lips unimpeded, while any deviation from honesty results in both enforced silence and this telltale weeping.
