For the duration of this spell, you can hear the heartbeats of all living creatures around you.
You can use this spell to detect the presence of living creatures around you. When you cast the spell or as your action during the duration, you can sense the number of heartbeats within 60 feet of you. You can't detect creatures that are undead or simply don't posses a heart.
If you are familiar with a heartbeat (by studying the creature for at least 10 minutes before casting this spell or having a relationship with the creature) you can focus on the creature to establish the general direction the creature is in, it's emotional state or if it's in pain, stressed or sick. While focusing on a single creature you are considered deafened as you try to focus all your senses on that one heart.
If there's a barrier of running water that's at least 10ft. thick directly blocking the path between you and a creature, the creature becomes undetectable by this spell.
