You don't amortize it at all.I guess I just don't see value in other readings (including alternate time frames etc) apart from "daily casting of death ward can't save you from starving to death". Is that ever a scenario that's going to happen?It's such a rare thing that you probably won't tell your players about the ruling, instead assuming it will simply never come up - and if it does happen to come up: which would you rather? The player gets an unexpected side effect and ends up alive for one more day, or the player dies?</blockquote>
