Water Window

This spell allows the caster to gain information from a quantity of water. Once the spell is cast, the water begins to show the images of objects and creatures that have been reflected in its surface over the past 24 hours. The caster can make specific requests such as “show me the last man who passed by here, “ and the water will show the appropriate reflection. Should the request be impossible to fulfill, the water becomes opaque gray until another request is made or the spell expires.

Should the caster use the spell on flowing water, such as a river, the caster must keep up with the water in order to view the reflection. Otherwise, the flowing water shows images of what happened upstream (where the actual water was when the objects were reflected in it). If there was no light to produce a reflection, the water shows only darkness under the effect of this spell.

The spell requires a suitable body of water.
