When you cast this spell, you envelop yourself or a willing creature you can see within range in a shield of shimmering, temporal energy. For the duration, any damage the target takes is not immediately applied. Instead, the damage is recorded and totals up over the spell's duration. When the spell ends, the total accumulated damage is applied all at once, in the order it was received. If the spell is dispelled, interrupted before its natural conclusion, or if concentration is broken when cast on another, the stored damage is also applied immediately.
Casting this spell on yourself does not require concentration and lasts for the full duration unless dispelled or interrupted. However, casting it on another creature requires your concentration to maintain the temporal energy shield.
