This spell ensures that the passage of the priest and his or her party along one path or road is quick and without mishap. The priest can enchant up to 1 mile of road or pathway per caster level, allowing the group's rate of movement along the road to be increased by 50% without any noticeable spell effect. If the priest abandons the road or path to move across country to the destination, the spell ends immediately.

In addition, for the spell's duration, minor accidents, such as stones caught in a horse's hoof or a broken axle on a wagon, do not occur.

The material components are the priest's holy symbol and a handful of dirt from the road, both of which are held in one hand a moment before the dirt is sprinkled at the feet of the priest.

Notes: Very rare spell for priests with access to the sphere of Travelers. (Updated from Dragon Magazine.)
