Pillow of Silencing

A Pillow of Silencing is a specially enchanted pillow that cancels sound within its immediate radius. This provides a perfectly quiet environment for light sleepers and mutes any snoring or sleep-talking for those around the user. They are commonly available to rent at luxury hotels in most cities and high-magic towns.
Pillows of Silencing are relatively easy to manufacture, requiring only simple illusion magic and a small amount of Goblin-Goose down mixed in with ordinary feathers to create the filling. Many artificer colleges assign their creation to students as one of their first enchanted items.
A few urban legends exist of murders committed by smothering the victim with a Pillow of Silencing, rendering them unable to scream for help. However, these are mostly fictional; the silence from the pillow does not extend past the immediate vicinity of the user's head, leaving the victim just as able to physically struggle against an attacker as with an ordinary pillow.
