Upon the casting of this spell, complete silence prevails in the affected area. All sound is stopped; Conversation is impossible, spells with verbal components can not be cast, and no noise whatsoever issues from, enters, or passes through the area. the spell can be cast on a point in space, but the effect is stationary unless cast on a mobile object. The spell can be centered on a creature, and the effect then radiates from the creature and moves as it moves. An unwilling creature can attempt a Will save to negate the spell and can use spell resistance, if any. Items in a creature's possession or magic items that emit sound receive the benefit of saves and spell resistance, but unattended objects and points in space do not. this spell provides a defense against sonic or language-based attacks, such as Command, a harpy's captivating song, a Horn Of Blasting, and the like
