Clear Water (Priest Spell)

With this spell, the priest can bring Athasian water closer to its true elemental form. Impurities and imperfections are removed, making it more effective at quenching thirst and nourishing plant life. A creature requires only half as much cleared water as normal water for drinking. An active human, for instance, needs only gallon of cleared water per day to avoid dehydration.
When used to grow plants, cleared water can double the yield of fruit or grain bearing plants. This also applies to trees of life and magical fruit trees, but only if cleared water is used to nurture the trees for every day of their growing life.
The material component is a single drop of dis­tilled water.
The reverse of this spell, muddy water, has ex­actly the opposite effect. Creatures must drink twice as much and plants yield half as much. The effects of muddy water are not readily apparent—creatures may think they are taking their fill of water but find themselves suffering from dehydra­tion anyway; farmers may not realize until the crops are in and it's too late.
The material component of the reverse is a rotted seed.
Notes: Uncommon for priests from the Dark Sun setting.
