Exorcism I
Spell, Divine Magic, level 4
Attempts to drive one spirit out of a possessed victim; if the spirit resists, the caster must try again or use other methods.
From the book
Drives a single spirit out of the body of a possessed victim. The spirit may save vs Will to resist; if it succeeds, the exorcism fails and the spirit stays where it is. The caster must then try the spell again or turn to other means. Stronger versions, Exorcism II to IV, deal with haunted places and demons.

A scene
Since the drowning, a fisherman's daughter on Skye has spoken in her dead uncle's voice, demanding ale and cursing the nets. The priestess of Vana comes at moonrise, sets the girl on a stool by the hearth, and commands the spirit to leave. The girl's face twists, and the uncle's voice laughs at her. It holds on. The priestess does not raise her voice. She simply begins the prayer again, and this time the girl shudders, sighs, and slumps sideways into her mother's arms, speaking in her own voice at last.
