| + | #REDIRECT [[Create Barrier of Naach-Tith (spell)]] |
| − | The '''Barrier of Naath-Tith''' (also known as the Wall of Naach-Tith, Naath-Tith's Barrier, or Soul Searing) is a fictional incantation which first appeared in [[Brian Lumley]]'s "[[Dylath-Leen (fiction)]]". It features heavily in another of his short stories, "[[The Horror at Oakdeene (fiction)]]".

| − | I have been unable to find more than the first few words of the formula used to create this barrier. The words are as follows: ''Lethiktros Themiel, phitrithte klep-thos'' - From the ''[[Cthäat Aquadingen]]'' - remaining text is corrupt and illegible.

| − | The '''Barrier of Naath-Tith''' (also known as the Wall of Naach-Tith or Naath-Tith's Barrier) is a powerful formula which may be used to create a barrier to build an invisible forcefield of great strength.
| |
| − | As well as being used to create protective fields the barrier can also be used as a temporary means of imprisoning an entity. It has even proven capable of holding a [[Great Old Ones (Deities)|Great Old One]] captive on several occasions. Casters should be careful lest the Barrier prove a prison as well as a safeguard. This formula is often employed by the summoners of [[Yibb-Tstll]] to protect those within from the god's possible displeasure. For this reason the Barrier is referred to as Soul Sealing in a number of magical texts (the English Book of Eibon mistranslates this as Soul Searing).
| |
| − | | |
| − | The words required to raise the barrier are relatively obscure and may prove hard for the enterprising sorcerer. The Latin translation of the ''[[Cthaat Aquadingen]]'' mentions the spell but only in passing. Most copies of the ''[[The Book of Eibon#Liber_Ivonis|Liber Ivonis]]'' contain the correct formula though it is missing from the English Translation.

| − | The spell may also be found in Chapter Ten of the ''[[Unaussprechlichen Kulten]]''.
