A spirit appears to you. The DM determines the appearance of the spirit, but it is ethereal and cannot touch or be touched, and only you can see it.
As long as the spirit is present, you may ask it questions and it will try to answer. It can tell you:
- The time of day and date.
- The direction of true north.
- Your body temperature or that of another creature within 10 feet of you, or the temperature of your current environment.
- The names of the most revered gods, the most powerful nations and their rulers, and the names of the most famous historical figures.
- The language a text is written in or the language another creature is speaking (it cannot translate).
- The temperature at which water boils.
The spirit may possess other knowledge, at the DM's discretion, but its knowledge is usually superficial, trivial, or something that is general knowledge.
Alternatively, you may give the spirit a book or text in a language you can speak. The spirit disappears with the text. When you next summon it, the spirit will explain the contents of the text it has read so far to the best of its ability and return the text. The spirit takes 1 hour to read 100,000 words.
