A single silver needle springs at a creature of your choice within range. Make a ranged spell attack against the target. On a hit, the target takes 4d4 piercing damage. After the hit, the silver needle falls on the ground, somewhere within 5 feet of the target.

Recall. A silver needle that has been used in the way described above remains for one minute. If there are 3 silver needles within 60 feet of you that you have used in this way, you can call them back as a bonus action. This does not require you to expend a spell slot. The silver needles fly towards you in a direct line and pierce creatures along the way. A creature in the line must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw or take 4d4 piercing damage. The silver needles disappear when they reach you.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, the damage dealt by a silver needle increases by 1d4 for each slot level above 1st.
