You create powerful strains of music from thin air that interfere with conversation. Nothing less than a shout can be heard over the power of the music. It is impossible to cast any spells that require verbal spell components within the area of effect; the power of the music interferes with the magical harmonies embedded in the incantation. Finally, targets in the area that do not succeed at a Will saving throw take 1d4 points of temporary Wisdom damage each round they remain in the spell’s area of effect.
