This spell must be cast within shadows, whether magical (as in a Twilight Sphere) or regular shadow.
You choose one object that you must touch throughout the casting of the spell. If it is a magic item or some other magic-imbued object, you learn its properties and how to use them, whether it requires attunement to use, and how many charges it has, if any. You learn whether any spells are affecting the item and what they are. If the item was created by a spell, you learn which spell created it.
In addition, if you pass an Arcana check (DC 15), you are given an image of the last time the item was used, who was wielding the item, and the conditions involving its use (testing, combat, whether successful or not). The amount of detail is left up to the DM.
If you instead touch a creature throughout the casting, you learn what spells, if any, are currently affecting it.
