Any player who has access to this spell may carry a small pouch or small bag; the spell will not affect a bag more than 18” deep or 6” wide. If you ask in GOD at the event, they will be able to provide you with a night pouch ribbon. When you cast this spell you should fasten your pouch with this ribbon.

			As the spell ends at time out each day, you will need to cast it again the next day if you want to continue using your night pouch. You can reuse the same ribbon; you do not need to go to GOD every time you cast the spell. Provided you have sufficient personal or crystal mana, and sufficient pouches, you can have multiple night pouches; just ask in GOD for as many ribbons as you need.
