You trick a creature you can see within range into believing it is watching itself and its surroundings crumble away, as if eons were passing in moments. The target must succeed on an Intelligence saving throw or take 10d12 Psychic damage and have the Paralyzed condition for the duration.

While Paralyzed, the target repeats the save at the end of each of its turns. On a failed save, it gains 1 Exhaustion level. On a successful save, the spell ends. The spell ends early if someone within 5 feet of the target takes an action to shake it free from the illusion.
