There are lots of flying projectiles there, so not really, since it doesn’t protect against attacks originating outside the circle . Actually let me just paste what its bit of Elsewhere looks like here.

"A wind picks up as the trees give way to scenic cliffs surrounding a deep lake. The skies overhead are thick with stormy clouds that are just a bit too violet to be real. The lake is strangely filled with the water-logged wrecks of cars rocking in the waves and occasionally beaching themselves on the shore. Shards of glass from their broken windows float on the water. There are no Fairy Circles on land; they are all underwater.
Someone had to go and touch one of the cars. Without warning, the shards of glass begin flying towards anyone, circling back like boomerangs for second and third hits. And there is Anna Monday itself, rising out of the water..."

I have yet to come up with an idea for the little bit of extra instability caused by the premature losing of shards early in the Jaunt, but I’m thinking it should be something that dream eaters plot skill CAN prevent. Sorry for the weird capitalization, I am on mobile.

So the projectiles only seem to show up when someone pokes at the wrecks? And I assume the lake is too large for the 100 foot radius? Or just one of those "this is on the edge, you cannot walk around it" deals?

Yes; yes; also he would have a hard time walking on water...

I’m not sure what you mean by edge? He could decrease the radius if he needs a smaller circle or different shape.

As in, he couldn't walk around it to make the circle because it was on the edge of the map/abutted by something impassable. (I have trouble conceptualizing sizes/distance so was just kinda fuzzy on the sizing of it all.)

Is a bit of a moot point if he's not poking the cars, however. :)
