When you cast this spell, you know intuitively where a corpse rests, provided that it is within the range of the spell. If the corpse has been disintegrated or similarly destroyed, the spell has no effect. The spell has no limit in terms of how long it has been since the target creature died, and it has been in this way that clerics have located the resting places of long-lost creatures and the dark places where their bodies are now reposed. In order to cast the spell, the cleric must know the entire name of the deceased individual and state it while casing the spell. You will be able to know and describe the precise direction toward the corpse as described by a straight line. You will also get a similar constant "reading" as you move while the spell's duration persists.

Material components: A small piece of parchment with the name of the deceased person inscribed upon it and a small, lit candle inscribed with your holy symbol.
