Effect: This spell gives the shukenja general information on the balances of forces--good, evil, lawful, or
chaotic--in a given AREA.

It does not reveal the exact alignment or nature of anything in the area of effect, only
the general proportions of each element. The DM must consult his information about the TARGET to determine the
answer. Answers are always vague--"there is more evil than good here;' or "the lawful order of the universe is
ascendant in this area."

When cast upon a living creature, the spell takes into account not only the creature's given alignment,
but also the acts they have done, the actions they currently intend to do, and any other factors that may be at
variance with their stated alignment. Thus, a lawful evil character noted for his occasional outbursts of
compassion towards the helpless would be detected as being "faithful but in which the other forces are at
struggle:" The spell can also be cast on buildings and areas, in an attempt to learn whether there are powers at
work in these places. A dwelling haunted by spirits would show the harmonies tending towards evil and
destruction, while the cave of a noted holy hermit would give the opposite impression.

MC: A specially prepared scroll of sutras costing 5 ch'ien for the paper and inks.
