\subsection{Gentle Repose}\label{gentle-repose}

\emph{2nd---level necromancy (ritual)}

\begin{itemize}
\tightlist
\item
  \textbf{Casting Time:} 1 action
\item
  \textbf{Range:} Touch
\item
  \textbf{Components:} V, S, M (a pinch of salt and one copper piece
  placed on each of the corpses eyes, which must remain there for the
  duration)
\item
  \textbf{Duration:} 10 days
\end{itemize}

You touch a corpse or other remains. For the duration, the target is
protected from decay and can't become undead.

The spell also effectively extends the time limit on raising the target
from the dead, since days spent under the influence of this spell don't
count against the time limit of spells such as raise dead.
