Questions on Meld with Stone and Prepare for Battle

[Colette Brunel]

1. Does meld with stone actually allow you enter a stone wall, and then un-meld with it to come out of the other side? The spell is frustratingly vague on this function.

2. Does prepare for battle track raw natural d20 results for initiative rolls, or total results including modifiers?

1. As written, meld with stone doesn't say anything about being able to move once melded, or about being able to exit in any space other than the one you entered in. It really should say that when dismissed you Step to any open space within 5 feet, but currently, it does not. (It should also have a Heightened version at higher level that gives Earth Glide, but again, currently does not.)

2. Since prepare for battle says "rolls" and not "results" the intent is probably just that it grants the actual raw die roll, with your own modifier still being applied.
