They've left him alone in his cell.
He can't really be said to be lucid but he has very acute instincts for when there's someone and when he's alone - it's the last of his senses to depart him - and he's alone.
And then suddenly he isn't.

Yeah.
I should work on that magic-vision spell tonight. I'm sure they're going to want to see what the magic detection form can do; better if I have something close to a final version for them to see.
Mmhmm.
She goes and gets some small rocks and sets them in front of her and sits and closes her eyes.
After a while: Are you going to want a magic vision spell? We're probably going to keep the tradition that the first spell a new mage casts on a person is that on themselves, but if you're not going to learn magic anyway that probably doesn't matter.
Right, all it'll do is let you see which things are magic and some details about how. Want to see what I have so far?
All right. This one will just last through tomorrow - I may end up changing things around, and everybody should end up with a spell that works the same way so we can share things over osanwë and have them make sense - and I'll make it so you can turn it on and off, too. And you generally won't be able to see the spells on me, since I have the antimagic effect.
She goes through the spellcasting procedure - he can turn the effect on or off by wanting to, unless he'd rather have a different trigger - and then teleports the stones she was using to test it with to his tray; when he activates the spell he'll see gently glowing swirls of different colors overlaid on them.
Different spell forms. Grey is the teleportation, yellow is the light form, bright blue is the magic detection, and red is the antimagic. I can't get more detail than that with this detection form.
The antimagic hides interactions between objects, is the limitation. If there's something with a spell on it that's activated by touch, and I touch it with my antimagic active, the spell can't feel the touch and won't activate. Same goes for spells on me that depend on me touching someone or something. But if it's triggered by time, or something about me, or if it's always on, the spell will work fine, the antimagic doesn't affect it at all.
Nod. It's still useful, just not for that. And maybe not much in your world, depending on whether it works on your kind of magic - we'll have to see.
