Far Sight

Name

Far Sight — Shows you an image of places far away, using an item as a focus.

Description

When Far Sight is performed on an item that has a location stored in it via the Remember Place ritual, it will give the priest a vision of that location. To perform this ritual successfully you need a holy symbol consecrated to your god and a prayer book containing the prayer "Sands through the hourglass".

Example

> perform far sight on baton
You briefly intone the psalm of perception.
You focus your attention upon a dull grey baton and cry for the fog of distance to be lifted.
You focus past the dull grey baton, and visualise the place you remembered...

This is part of the Street of Small Gods between two temples, a
large, friendly one to the north and a small, grim-looking one to the
south. This seems like a fairly major part of the street,
considering the two major temples to either side. Gufnork's temple
appears to be surrounded by some strange sort of halo of fluffy
balls, while Sek's appears to have a perpetual black cloud over it.
The street continues west and northeast, with more temples in either
direction.
Several groups of people can be seen walking past, quite
energetically. Either this neighbourhood is near one of the busier
areas of the city, or people are just in a hurry to get away.
It is a very warm autumn prime's morning with almost no wind and some
puffy clouds.
There are four obvious exits: northeast, west, north and south.
A street lamp is here.
