This spell enables the caster to divine the approximate location – up to one mile away in any direction, including up and down – of the nearest dwarf or dwarves in immediate or imminent need of aid. Such emergencies might include a battle with more powerful foes, a life-threatening medical emergency, a broken wagon wheel, or the like, but in no case is the priest made aware of more than the general nature of the emergency. There is no guarantee that the situation revealed is one that the caster is capable of addressing, or that the caster can reach the location revealed by the spell in time to be of assistance.
If no dwarf in need of assistance is within one mile of the caster, the spell ends and the priest is aware of the result. If multiple groups are in need of aid, Marthammor's intuition reveals only the nearest emergency, not necessarily the most pressing.
If the priest heads toward the dwarf or dwarves in need within one turn of the casting, moving as fast as safely possible, Marthammor's intuition guides him or her along the most efficient route to the scene.
On rare occasions, at Marthammor's discretion, this spell foreshadows an imminent event rather than revealing an ongoing situation. In such circumstances, the caster can usually reach the scene in time to prevent the imminent disaster.
The material components are the priest's holy symbol and a strand of the priest's beard hair.
Notes: Granted by the dwarven god Marthammor Duin.
