By touching the remains of a humanoid that has been dead for no more than 2 years, you may ask it one question. The corpse animates momentarily and must answer as truthfully and concisely as possible, based on its life knowledge.

The corpse is entirely loyal to you for the duration and ignores any former divine, pact, or magical allegiances.
Once the question is answered, the body crumbles into ash, preventing further attempts to question it.
