Just think of the Command spell as more of an Appease spell. If you
suceed in casting it and you are favourable to the entity (suceed in
a mp versus. mp) then the elemental will obey you for you are a good
Orlanthi. If not, it leaves. The end result is the same, but the
driving ethics behind it is different.
