This does not stack with any other Fate spells.
This spell can take a character beyond the standard Skill levels.
\spell{Prayer of Gratitude}{Instant}{Academics}{Retrieve 1 \gls{storypoint} after you spend 2 or more}\\
The caster rolls during any scene in which someone spends at least 2 \glspl{storypoint}.
With a successful roll, one \gls{storypoint} is returned to the character.
\spell{Snapback}{Instant}{Tactics}{Start a round over again}\\
The caster casts a spell to determine if some plan will work, and subtly alters fate to ensure it gets its best shot.
Once the spell is cast on a person, the caster can decide to rewind this person's round and try the entire round again.
If the target interacts with anything or anyone not covered by the spell then the spell fails.
Once the spell is cast on a person, the caster can decide to rewind time, and declare that the last round never took place.

\begin{exampletext}
Artemis wants to know if a nearby begger is a spy in disguise.
He begins by casting a \textit{Wide Snapback} over himself and the begger, then jumps forward, kicks the begger in the face, and tells him he has been found out.
The begger simply looks shocked -- apparently Artemis has the wrong person, so he takes his decision back.
Artemis finds himself at the end of the spell, with a prophetic knowledge of what \textit{would} have happened if he had kicked the begger, without ever having done so.
\end{exampletext}
The only way to use the spell for a fight is to cover all combatants with a \textit{Wide Snapback}.
The one-person version might be used on a person picking a lock on a door.
The spell might be used on a single person picking a lock on a door (but if the door triggers an explosion and damages others, the spell fails).

This can be used on a summoning miraculous help, such as a crew of soldiers who have a debt to the priest, or a magical ally.%
\footnote{As usual \gls{gm} is free to veto any ideas, but the player is also free to continue pulling new ideas out.}
The player gains no \glspl{xp} for these `fake` \glspl{storypoint}, only for spending the initial \gls{storypoint}.
\spell{Resurrection}{Instant}{Medicine}{Bring the recently deceased back from the dead}\\
The priest summons the soul of a recently deceased person back to their body.
If they are beyond -3 Hit Points, they must roll a Vitality Check again to stay alive, but this time with a +5 bonus.
