You soar south.

The Lodge Sanctuary
The amethysts and citrine of the walls and floor shine darkly, casting green
and purple light on your face as you walk along close to the wall. You
run your hand along the sparkling rocks and you feel the strength, both
magical and natural, of this lodge. This place, especially in the darker
parts like this, is peaceful and you feel pensive. A sense comes upon you
that makes you think that spirits and maybe even gods sometimes visit
Tlaxcala.

First stage of songs of silence (until they fail the save) merely prolongs casting time. Much like songs of sleep hindering accuracy/speed until they fail a save and actually fall asleep.

I've been using songs of silence for a long time now, and never, ever seen this to be true. Once a NPC got entranced, it didn't even concentrate. And if a NPC got entranced while concentrating, it never finished its spell, and just went back to melee after casting time.

The only difference between those times and this time, was the person casting against the NPC.

Only explanation I can come up with is that a NPC has never saved against you. I am positive the way I wrote is the way it works, I remember from testing we did with Desdomos vs. some fist bard.

I think you're thinking of songs of sleep. Songs of sleep first stage is increased casting time, second stage (if you're not involved in melee) is outright sleep.

help songs of silence wrote:
Intially [sic], this results in slower casting times for all magic users who hear it as they fight against the compulsion. Upon being fully enthralled, the song affects access to the power of speech, ability to order pets, access to cast most spells, recite scrolls, persuade others and sing bardic songs.

Silence does as well. Konge is right.

The key words in that help file being fully enthralled, which means:

Just means they're affected, not fully entranced - at least I believe. To me, nothing in this log indicates that there's a bug.

Having lost the caster in the group, once again entranced message means not even concentrating.
