>>5426 Yulya moves North of Ashley after successfully casting Bless on everyone using her holy symbol instead of holy water.Bless will last 10 turns as long as Yulya concentration is not broken.
Yulya now has 2MP and a fully charged focus of 6MP but using it for a spell that is less than level 5 will have unknown results. It cannot be used like a battery unless you have that skill or attribute. She doesn't.
Chapter 10, p. 203 of the PHB: A character can use a… spellcasting focus… in place of the components specific for a spell. But if the cost is indicated for a component, a character must have that specific component before he or she can cast the spell. Bless is pretty good actually.
