This spell speeds up the life processes of the recipient at a rate of 1 day/turn for the duration of the spell. All life processes (sleeping, eating, healing, etc.) progress at this accelerated pace. If insufficient nourishment is provided, the recipient suffers from thirst and starvation. Three rounds of rest per turn must be allowed, otherwise exhaustion results and no healing is possible. The other seven rounds must be spent eating and drinking a day's rations. The recipient regains 1 hp/turn for the first seven turns (minus any penalty due to poor constitution). In subsequent multiples of seven turns, characters with constitution bonuses additionally receive their constitution bonus. In any case 28 turns of accelerated metabolism heal a character completely. However, each turn ages the recipient a week (as opposed to a day), due to the stress of the artificially high metabolic rate. Note that the character does not move or fight any faster than normal. Also, if the recipient of the spell is unwilling, a saving throw is applicable.

The material component for this spell is a candle, which must be lit at both ends. The candle must burn for the duration of the spell; if it is extinguished, the spell ends prematurely. The candle is completely burned if the spell runs its normal course.
