This is a focused, warding spell cast on a tree. If, after the spell is cast, any living creature enters within the spell's range the tree's leaves, branches, and trunk will light up with a magical luminescence that can be seen for kilometers. The light will last for the duration of the spell, unless the invading creature(s) make a disbelieve roll of 18. In order to determine how sensitive the tree ward is, the caster must also generate a divination or Perception total after casting the spell. This IS the difficulty a creature must achieve in order to sneak past the ward.
