The SendingStone review

Sequester is a powerful spell that can be cast by wizards in Dungeons and Dragons. It requires diamond, emerald, ruby, and sapphire dust worth at least 5,000 gold as a material component. Once cast, the spell lasts until dispelled and allows the target to be hidden away and protected from harm. The caster can choose to hide themselves or another creature or object, preventing it from being detected by magical means and providing a safe haven during dangerous situations.

Overall, Sequester is a highly useful spell for wizards who want to keep their allies safe or protect valuable items. However, its high level and expensive material component make it costly to learn and cast. It also may not be as useful in low-level campaigns where hiding away for an extended period of time is not as necessary. Despite these limitations, Sequester remains a popular spell among experienced wizards who know how to use it effectively.
