* Useful around sleeping creatures if one wishes not to wake them up. This is done by either silencing the area around the sleeping creatures themselves, or around the area you expect to be making noises in.
** Works very well with a [[Rogue|Rogue's]] {{SAI|Sneak Attack}} in such cases.
* The incantation for Silence is '''Te Astringo Lingua''', Latin for "I bind your tongue".
