+You may pacify hostile monsters with this area attack skill (it is
+directionless and affects the area around you - the higher the skill,
+the larger the area). Certain kinds of monsters are immune. Success
+depends on user's level and her L<charisma|stat_Cha> vs. the monster's
+L<intelligence|stat_Int> and level.
+
+Singing is a good companion skill for the L<oratory
+skill|skill_description/oratory>: first you pacify creates using singing,
+then you can orate them, convincing them if your cause. It is a useful
+skill when monsters are overwhelming you, too.
