The SendingStone review

Telepathic Bond is a powerful spell that allows two creatures to establish a telepathic link for one hour. It is only available to Wizards and requires the collection of eggshells from two different kinds of creatures for the material components. The spell enables the two creatures to communicate with each other mentally and share thoughts, images, and sounds. In addition, they can sense each other's emotions and can communicate even if one of them is in a different plane of existence.

Overall, Telepathic Bond is an excellent spell for any situation where discrete communication is necessary, such as in a covert operation or during a negotiation where verbal communication may not be possible. However, it is only useful for specific situations and does not provide any combat bonuses or physical advantages. Additionally, the limited duration means that the spell must be used strategically rather than as a constant form of communication. Nonetheless, it remains a valuable tool in the arsenal of any Wizard.
