You raise your arms and cause plantlife to erupt from the ground
within a 500-foot radius around a point you can see within range.
Any structure in contact with the ground when you cast this
spell takes 250 piercing damage as ancient roots expand into its
foundations and branches push through its walls. If this spell
reduces a structure to 0 hit points, the structure collapses
harmlessly into rubble. Creatures within a collapsing structure
suffer no damage, as growing vegetation within the building
deflects falling debris or suspends it above them.
Any surviving structure or natural terrain within the area (such
as a cliff) becomes choked with vines, ferns, and other plant life
that cover its surface, which makes it easily climbable.
Massive, ancient vegetation (such as trees or mushrooms)
erupts from the ground within range. Each ancient plant has a
trunk radius of 1d4 * 5 feet and a height of 2d6 * 25 feet, and
must sit at least 30 feet away from any other ancient plant. The
spread of ancient roots and thick vegetation in a 30-foot-radius
around each ancient plant makes that area difficult terrain, and
dim light shrouds the space between their overlapping canopies.
The smaller plants within the area are always under the
enriching effects of the plant growth spell, yielding twice as much
food when harvested or foraged.
Pollutants, hallowed ground, and desecrated ground within the
chosen area are instantly cleansed. Beasts, plants, druids, and fey
within the area have advantage on ability checks and saving
throws while within the spell’s area.
Spells that you cast that create a hallowed or blessed area, such
as druid grove or relinquish to natureAEONS require no material
components when cast within this spell’s area, and spells you cast
that summon creatures require no material components and
conjure one additional creature of the same type when cast within
the affected area.
