A shimmering mantle of light shrouds the subject, casting light like a torch. The subject of the spell gains a +1 resistance bonus on all saving throws per four caster levels (maximum +5 at 20th level). The subject can end the wrathful mantle at any time as a swift action to deal 2d8 points of force damage to all creatures within 5 feet.
When the spell is ended exactly what is meant by all creatures within 5 feet? Is is it all adjacent creatures, or is it centered on a corner and affects only those 4 squares.
All within 5' of the target, which would mean anyone adjacent to the target.
