After this spell is cast, the priest knows the location of a corpse (animal or otherwise). The priest must first find stones, each one bigger than a fist. He stacks them in a small pile, or cairn, and sits and stares at the blackness of the stones until he receives a vision of the corpse's location. If the caster has an item belonging to the corpse, the casting time is reduced by half. Templars and druids can cast this spell, elemental and para-elemental clerics cannot.

Notes: Uncommon for templars and druids in the Dark Sun setting.
