You can identify with a type of spirit that you wish to contact, through concentration you are able to pull that type of spirit through the planes to communicate with you through the prepared vessel. It is bound to answer one question of yours that is within its knowledge. It is up to the GM's discretion if the spirit becomes hostile after the question is answered.
Spirits beings aren't necessarily omniscient, so you might receive "unclear" as an answer if a question pertains to information that lies beyond the entity's knowledge. In a case where a one-word answer could be misleading or contrary to the entity's interests, the GM might offer a short phrase as an answer instead.
If you cast the spell two or more times before finishing your next long rest, there is a cumulative 25 percent chance for each casting after the first that you get no answer. The GM makes this roll in secret.
