Magical darkness spreads from a point you choose within range to fill a 15-foot-radius sphere. The darkness spreads around corners. A creature with darkvision can't see through this darkness, and nonmagical light can't illuminate it. If the point you choose is on an object you're holding or one that isn't being worn or carried, the darkness emanates from the object and moves with it. Completely covering the source with an opaque object blocks the darkness. If any area of this spell overlaps with an area of light created by a spell of Tier 2 or lower, the spell that created the light is dispelled. This is not mere absence of light. This is a summoning; a small tear that lets the Void bleed through. Those who stand within it report a faint pulling sensation, as though something vast and patient is aware of them.
