You cast this spell upon a letter, nonmagical scroll, or similar object of paper, parchment, or vellum that is currently sealed (such as with wax or glue). Upon the letter’s opening, it begins to fade and yellow. After up to five minutes, it becomes hard to read. After up to ten minutes, all traces of writing have vanished; the letter or scroll is in tatters. The "up to" durations are to be determined by the caster. However, neither can be shorter than one round and the second one must be longer than the first.
Material component: A handful of ash.
