You touch a corpse or other remains, and glowing aura infuses two copper pieces as you place them on the corpse's eyes. The aura fades within one round.
For the duration, the target is protected from natural decay and completely preserved. The spell effectively extends the time limit on targeting the corpse with spells that raise the dead.
