Tree Speak

You touch a tree and ask it one question about anything that might have happened in its immediate vicinity (such as, “Who passed by here?”). You get a mental sensation of the response, which takes the duration of the spell. Trees do not have a human sense of time, so the tree might answer with something that happened last night or a hundred years ago. The sensation you receive may include sight, hearing, vibration, or smell, all from the perspective of the tree. Trees are particularly attentive to anything which may harm the forest and always report such activities when questioned.
If you cast this spell on a tree that contains a merged Circle of Oaks druid or other creature that can merge with trees, such as a dryad, you can freely communicate with the merged creature for the duration of the spell.
